ABOUT THE PROJECT

This job required some creative thinking!  The passenger walkways leading from the cruise ship terminal down to the actual ships can be a slippery situation in Vancouver’s wet climate, especially in the transition points between walking surfaces.  The challenge here was to find a material that: 1) was slip-resistant, 2) was soft enough to minimize injury should a passenger slip and fall, and 3) gave a highly-visible warning about the height and surface change.

The winning product was our Super Nop matting in Bright Yellow, custom-cut to fit the gangways with our Heavy Edge vinyl ramp edging to minimize the risk of tripping and falling.
