Leaking roofs are a constant problem for properties in all industries. Roofing repairs are costly, time-consuming, and can cause major disruption to building operations. From getting quotes, investigating roofing repair cost, confirming insurance coverage, getting repairs approval and finally completing the works, fixing a leaking roof takes time.
In the meantime, facilities managers still have to manage the numerous health and safety risks created by leaking roofs - and with slips and trips the most reported injury to members of the public, effective slip prevention is vital. The most common solution – wet floor signs and strategically placed buckets – is fundamentally flawed; easily hidden by members of the public or worse still, knocked over - further increasing slip risk. As a result, UK employers pay out over £500M in slip and trip litigation claims each year.
It’s a cost that’s too big to ignore, and that’s why we developed SlipStop®.
Introducing SlipStop®
SlipStop® is a high visibility, all-in-one leak collection solution featuring an innovative integrated bucket and absorbent liner system, significantly improving leak collection and preventing slips, trips and falls. Available in two designs (a flatpack unit or stackable cone), SlipStop® not only manages risks more effectively, but keeps areas cleaner - providing a much tidier, more professional appearance in any area.
How SlipStop® Works
Water from the leak is collected via the SlipStop’s central funnel, which channels the liquid directly into the integrated SlipStop® Collect bucket. Water collected is then absorbed by the SlipStop® Collect liner, removing the hazard of open buckets of water, and making disposal of ‘waste’ water significantly easier (saturated liners can simply be disposed of in any general waste facility).
