Kota stone is one of India’s most beloved traditional flooring materials — widely used in homes, temples, schools, and government buildings. Its natural beauty and durability make it a timeless choice. However, polished Kota stone can be extremely slippery when wet. Anti-slip treatment preserves Kota stone’s beauty while making it permanently safe.
What Is Kota Stone and Where Is It Used?
Kota stone is a fine-grained limestone quarried primarily in Kota, Rajasthan. It is used extensively across India — particularly in Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and Gujarat — for interior and exterior flooring in homes, temples, schools, government offices, and outdoor areas.
Why Kota Stone Gets Slippery
Kota stone in its natural form has reasonable slip resistance. However, when polished (as is common for interior use), the surface becomes very smooth and slippery when wet. Outdoor Kota stone also becomes dangerous during monsoon.
Anti-Slip Treatment for Kota Stone
Oxon’s anti-slip treatment penetrates into the Kota stone surface and creates improved grip without any change in appearance. The treatment works equally well on polished interior Kota and on rough outdoor Kota stone where additional grip enhancement is needed.
Kota Stone in Temples and Religious Spaces
Temples and religious buildings often have large areas of Kota stone flooring that become wet from ritual washing, rain water, and devotee foot traffic. Anti-slip treatment for temple Kota stone floors has been a significant application for Oxon Technology in Rajasthan and Maharashtra.
Outdoor Kota Stone: Courtyards and Verandahs
Many traditional Indian homes have open courtyards and verandahs with Kota stone flooring. These areas get wet during rain and are walked barefoot — a combination that requires anti-slip treatment.
