Vitacon has a diamond mesh serrated pattern which gives excellent non-slip characteristics. It offers a lightweight, strong section which is ideal for use on conveyor walkways, inclines or anywhere slip resistant floors are required. Manufactured in standard 6m x 250mm wide sections which can be cut to suit the standard lengths held in stock for various walkway widths. Vitacon® offers many increments allowing optimum utilisation for a modular fitted floor area.
Sections may be bolted together and joined at intervals using fish plates to give a continuous floor appearance. Manufactured in mild steel and aluminium only.
