Anti-Slip Treatment for Airports and Railway Stations

Airports and railway stations are among the highest-traffic public spaces in India. With millions of passengers passing through daily — many carrying heavy luggage, in a rush, and distracted — floor safety is a critical infrastructure concern. Anti-slip treatment is an essential part of airport and station safety management.

Scale of Floor Safety Challenge in Airports

Major Indian airports like Indira Gandhi International (Delhi), Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International (Mumbai), and Kempegowda International (Bangalore) handle tens of millions of passengers annually. A single slip-and-fall incident in an airport can result in significant liability and reputational damage for the airport operator.

High-Risk Zones in Airports

Entrance areas (wet from rain, trolley traffic), restroom and washroom facilities, food court and restaurant areas, departure lounge floors (cleaning creates wet surfaces), ramps and sloped walkways, baggage claim areas (wet from rain on luggage).

Railway Station Floor Safety

Indian railway stations present unique floor safety challenges: platforms that get wet during rain, concourse areas with high pedestrian flow, subway passages, and food stall areas. Many older stations have worn stone or tile floors that have lost their inherent slip resistance.

Compliance with AAI and RDSO Standards

Airports Authority of India (AAI) and Railway Design and Standards Organisation (RDSO) both have guidance on floor safety for public transport infrastructure. Anti-slip treatment helps these facilities meet or exceed required slip resistance standards.

Phased Implementation for Operational Continuity

Large public transport facilities cannot be closed for floor treatment. Oxon Technology implements anti-slip treatment in phases — typically overnight or during low-traffic periods — to maintain operational continuity throughout the treatment programme.
