Granite is a popular flooring choice in Indian homes and commercial spaces — prized for its durability, appearance, and prestige. However, polished granite floors can be extremely slippery when wet. Anti-slip treatment for granite floors permanently solves this problem without any change in appearance.
Granite Floor Safety: Understanding the Risk
Granite is an igneous rock with a naturally crystalline structure. When polished to a high shine — as is common in Indian homes and offices — the surface becomes extremely smooth with very low friction. Wet polished granite can have a slip coefficient below 0.2, making it one of the most dangerous floor surfaces in wet conditions.
Anti-Slip Treatment Process for Granite
The treatment process for granite follows the same principle as for other stone floors: a chemical solution is applied to the granite surface, which creates microscopic pores within the stone. These pores improve drainage and grip without any visible change. The process takes approximately 15-20 minutes per 100 square feet.
Black Granite and Dark Stone Floors
Dark granite floors — particularly the popular ‘Black Galaxy’ and ‘Absolute Black’ varieties — are beautiful but particularly dangerous as they do not show water clearly, making wet patches invisible. Anti-slip treatment is especially important for dark granite floors in bathrooms, kitchens, and areas where wet shoes are common.
Granite Treatment for Indian Kitchens
Indian kitchens experience significant moisture and oil on floors. Granite kitchen floors treated with Oxon’s system provide dramatically improved grip in these conditions. The treatment is food-safe, chemical-resistant, and unaffected by cooking oils, cleaning agents, or steam.
Granite Maintenance After Anti-Slip Treatment
Treated granite floors require no special maintenance. Continue with your normal granite cleaning routine — wet mopping, stone cleaner, etc. The treatment does not affect the ability to polish or re-polish granite at a later date.
