Shower tray ‘anti slip kit' launched
Story
Easy application, durable, non-slip surface for baths and showers from MX Group
The significant dangers of people slipping over in the shower, in the bath or on wet tiles and bathroom floors has been addressed by the launch of the new MX Anti Slip Kit. Launched by the MX Group, one of the leading shower accessory manufacturers in the UK, the new product offers a complete kit to make a shower or bath ‘anti slip’.
The specially formulated and easy-to-apply no-slip surface instantly creates safety in wet showers and bath tubs and can be applied to tiles and floors as well. It’s hygienic and low maintenance, solvent free, environmentally friendly, colourless, durable but easily removable if required.
The MX Anti Slip kit is ideal for retrofitting to baths and showers in retirement homes, nursing and care homes, sheltered housing, hospitals, clinics and rehabilitation facilities, swimming pools, sports centres, saunas, steam baths and of course in homes across the country. The product is already recommended by a number of hotel groups keen to ensure the safety of their guests. In an increasingly litigious world, this product offers an inexpensive option to avoid claims from people willing to go to law for damages as a result of accidents that can be easily avoided.
Group Marketing Manager Sasha Davies says like most great products it’s a very simple one: “Slipping over in the bath or shower is a worryingly common occurrence – we’ve all done it at some stage in our lives, but for elderly or vulnerable people the consequences can be very serious and for commercial customers such as hotel groups that are keen to ensure that their guests remain safe during their stays, it’s a simple, easy to apply solution to the problem that makes huge sense. The MX Anti Slip Kit comes with literally everything that’s needed to apply the coating and simple to follow instructions to help you maximise on the safety that the product offers. The kits are available now through all good builders and plumbers merchants.
