Schindler Grip+ The ultimate anti-slip solution Schindler moves millions of people safely and reliably. Grip+ is an extended safety solution for inclined moving walks that stands for Schindler product quality and European design excellence. The key advantages of Schindler’s Grip+ pallet: - Superior anti-slip coating technology - 10 times higher lifespan and durability than other coating solutions - Increased static and dynamic friction between shoe and pallet - Low life-cycle cost and high efficiency
Carbide coating results in long-term, maintenance-free slip resistance
Schindler Escalators and Moving Walks
Extended safety Schindler’s patented factory coating technology gives Grip+ a friction rating of R 13 according to DIN 51 130 (non-slip > 40 degrees inclination). This means less risk of slipping compared to uncoated pallets, which have an R 10 rating. In addition, visual stripes make it easier to distinguish moving surfaces from stationary surfaces at the entry and exit areas. Extremely durable The lifespan of the Grip+ surface is 10 times that of other solutions. The smooth carbide-coated surface provides greater friction between shoe and pallet. With a 10-year lifespan and a 3-year extended warranty, the Grip+ anti-slip solution is a secure investment in your moving walk.
