AcroMat Acquires GripCoteX Non-Slip Backing

AcroMat Acquires GripCoteX Non-Slip Backing

AcroMat, a custom anti-fatigue mat manufacturer headquartered in the Minneapolis Metro, has acquired anti-fatigue mat non-slip coating, GripCoteX, from LiquiGuard Technologies, Inc. and is now the exclusive manufacturer – re-branding the product line to Grip-R Non-Slip Coating.   

Grip-R is a water-based, eco-bio friendly non-slip coating precisely formulated to ensure anti-fatigue, ergo and most types of floor mats remain in place – eliminating slip, trip and fall risks from mats that constantly slide around.  

"Our clients have relied on the non-slip benefits of GripCoteX for many years; when the opportunity arose, we were thrilled to acquire the product line. Now as the exclusive manufacturer of Grip-R, making it here in our production facility, we can ensure our clients have unlimited access to the best non-slip backing for their mats, exactly when they need it.” 
Russell Herbert, AcroMat Founder, General Manager 


Grip-R Product Test. 

One in five safety and production leaders are dealing with anti-fatigue mats that slide around – a clear and preventable slip, trip and fall hazard. The average slip, trip and fall injury claim is $50,000 per injury, including 12 missed days of work.

Grip-R is painted or rolled onto the bottom of anti-fatigue mats, creating a firm bond between the floor and mat to eliminate the risk of injury from sliding mats. Combined with the natural grip of 100% nitrile rubber foam and premium NBR rubber foam – the materials used to manufacture AcroMat mats – and the glove-like fit created by mats custom designed to fit, the collective outcome is improved health, safety and productivity for standing workers.  

Grip-R replaces double-sided tapes with a more effective and longer-lasting solution. Unlike tapes, Grip-R does not leave a sticky residue or transfer to the substrate. 

Grip-R can be applied to the bottom of your AcroMat anti-fatigue mats as part of any order, or you can order the product by the container and apply (and re-apply) as needed.
