Boat Stair Treads & Deck Coatings

 

Amstep Products marine stair treads and stair nosings protect crew and passengers against slips and falls under wet slippery floor conditions common in nautical environments. As of 2014, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) statistics show over 40% of workplace accidents in the Marine industry are a result of a slip or fall.

Amstep’s nautical treads and nosings are currently in use on freighters, ferries, tugboats, commercial and personal fishing vessels, as well as yachts and cruise ships. They are protecting the safety of boat passengers and crews from Maine to Alaska and Florida to Hawaii.
