RezCast Benefits
The following are among the many reasons RezCastŪ Products are the best answer to correcting potentially dangerous and costly
slip and fall conditions on walkway and stairway accesses:
- Slip/fall accidents are one of the leading causes of disabling injuries and result in millions of dollars in workman s compensation claims,
litigation, and lost man hours on the job, affecting productivity.
- Liquid applied coatings do not bond well to steel or concrete substrate surfaces over the long term, and often become repetitious,
routine maintenance problems. In house employees do not often have the skills or understanding of coatings materials and preparation procedures
to be successful with those types of applications.
- Numerous safety concerns are associated with the use of liquid coating applications, including handling toxic materials and the disposal of hazardous
chemical containers and materials.
- RezCastŪ products can potentially save the customer numerous liquid coating applications, requiring downtime and increased liability.
-RezCastŪ products are installed using mechanical fasteners such as screws, or bolts to insure permanence, without the concern of potential bonding problems
associated with liquid applied coating applications.
- RezCastŪ stair tread components have a unique toe (nosing) design which carries the co-efficient of friction property over the critical landing and take-off part of the tread.
When ascending a stairway, foot traffic tend to step or use the toe of the tread to take-off from rather than landing on the horizontal surface.
When descending the stairway, the traffic tends to leave each step at the toe . This is the primary cause of the polishing effect associated with a metallic stair tread toe (nosing).
- RezCastŪ has a proven track record of long term durability in a variety of industrial and commercial environments, where chemical exposure levels range from mild to harsh.
RezCastŪ products carry a limited 10 year warranty
- In new or retro-fit construction projects, RezCastŪ structural LB stair treads and plates are a practical alternative to using steel stair treads and landings or walkways due to the amount
of additional expense required to non-slip these types of walking surfaces using liquid applied coatings, after construction is completed.
- RezCastŪ stair treads are manufactured to specifications to meet customer requirements, including color, slip-resistant profile, chemical exposure, shape and size.
