Public transit spaces demand tiles that stay safe under constant footfall and wet weather. For this metro station project, the priority was clear: durable, anti-slip stair tiles that meet safety expectations in one of the highest-traffic environments there is.

The challenge
Stairs in a busy metro station see thousands of passengers a day, often with wet shoes and umbrellas. As an anti-slip stair tile supplier, the goal was to combine strong slip resistance, wear resistance and a clean, uniform appearance.
The requirement
- Anti-slip stair tiles rated for heavy public foot traffic
- High wear and impact resistance for long service life
- A consistent look across many staircases
- Dependable supply to match construction phasing
The solution
JDR supplied stair tiles with anti-slip surfaces suited to wet, high-traffic areas, prioritized wear resistance for durability, and kept batches consistent so every staircase matched. Coordinated delivery supported the project’s phased schedule.
The outcome
The station gained safe, hard-wearing staircases with a uniform finish — meeting the safety and durability demands of a public transit environment while keeping the specification simple to manage.
Key takeaways for public projects
- Specify anti-slip ratings appropriate to wet, high-traffic areas
- Prioritize wear resistance for long-term value
- Keep batches consistent across large, phased builds
