Belzona 2211 (Granogrip)

Belzona 2211 (Granogrip) is a high-performance, solvent-free, two-part epoxy system designed for creating non-slip, anti-slip surfaces in industrial environments. It provides a durable and long-lasting solution for areas exposed to high foot traffic, oil, water, and other challenging conditions, offering a safer working environment.

Key Features

1. Non-Slip Surface:
   • Provides an effective anti-slip solution for floors, walkways, ramps, and other surfaces that require enhanced grip and safety.
2. High Durability:
   • Resistant to wear, abrasion, and impact, making it ideal for heavy-duty environments with high foot or vehicle traffic.
3. Chemical and Oil Resistance:
   • Excellent resistance to oils, chemicals, and water, ensuring long-lasting performance in challenging industrial conditions.
4. Easy to Apply:
   • Simple two-component system that can be mixed and applied with minimal effort, even on vertical surfaces.
5. Versatile:
   • Can be applied to various surfaces, including concrete, metal, and wood, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.
6. Fast Curing:
   • Cures quickly, reducing downtime and allowing for a fast return to service in busy industrial environments.

Applications

• Industrial Floors:
  • Provides non-slip protection for factory floors, warehouses, and other industrial facilities, preventing accidents and injuries.
• Walkways and Ramps:
  • Enhances safety on walkways, ramps, and staircases, especially in wet or slippery conditions.
• Marine and Offshore:
  • Ideal for use on ships, docks, and offshore platforms, where slip resistance is critical for safety.
• Loading Bays:
  • Ensures a safe working environment in loading bays and areas where vehicles frequently move, providing secure footing for workers.
• Oil and Gas Facilities:
  • Suitable for oil refineries, chemical plants, and other high-risk industrial environments where chemicals and oils may spill onto surfaces.

How to Use

1. Surface Preparation:
   • Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as oil, grease, and dirt. Abrade the surface to enhance adhesion.
2. Mixing:
   • Mix the two components (Part A and Part B) in the recommended ratio until a uniform color is achieved.
3. Application:
   • Apply the mixed material to the surface using a roller or brush, ensuring an even coat. The surface can be finished with an additional layer of granules for extra grip.
4. Curing:
   • Allow the applied material to cure for the recommended time (typically 24 hours) before allowing foot traffic or other activities.
