Detroit, MI (PRWEB) September 19, 2008 -- The Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington D.C. is making safety priority by integrating state-of-the-art safety technology into the park. SlipNOT® Metal Safety Flooring Grip Grate® will be used in several areas of the 163-acre zoo. Various sections of the park including the Asia Trail, along with the Seal, Invertebrates, Amazonia and Upper Bear areas will be re-furbishing walkways and platforms using SlipNOT®'s non-slip galvanized steel Grip Grate®.

With up to two million guests from all over the world visiting the zoological park every year, public safety is just as a much a priority as is animal safety. Wet conditions caused by rainy days, dewy mornings, or grounds sprinklers can create a hazardous environment for both visitors and zoo employees. Having used epoxies and paints in the past as slip and fall deterrents, Facilities Management was looking for a more permanent solution for these areas; a product that would not flake, wear or chip and need no reapplication. Another benefit to using SlipNOT®'s non-slip galvanized steel grating is unlike other carbon steel alternatives it will not corrode
