Stair nosing
Nosing is the horizontal, protruding edge of a stair where most foot traffic frequently occurs. These stair parts can be manufactured from a variety of materials including aluminum, vinyl and wood.
Stair nosing, especially in commercial and industrial settings, is typically fitted with a non-slip surface to increase traction and prevent injury or even death from slips, trips, and falls. The National Safety Council reports that there are over one million stair-related accidents every year. Installing anti-slip nosing is a proven method of accident prevention.
