These slick conditions could result in a slip and fall, which is why the SlipNOT® surface was applied. The SlipNOT® material brought reassurance to Bush Brothers employees who utilize the work platform on a daily basis. The platforms non slip and chemical resistant surface became a permanent fixture at the facility.
