Spa and wellness centres present some of the highest floor safety risks of any commercial environment. Steam rooms, hydrotherapy pools, wet treatment rooms, and shower facilities all create conditions where slippery floors are not just inconvenient — they are dangerous.
Unique Risks in Spa Environments
Spas combine multiple wet areas in a single facility: steam rooms (floors constantly wet from condensation), hydrotherapy pools and whirlpools (wet pool decks), wet treatment rooms, shower and changing areas, relaxation lounges (where guests walk barefoot after wet treatments).
Treatment for Steam Room Floors
Steam rooms present a particularly challenging environment — floors are constantly saturated with water and steam. Anti-slip treatment for steam room tiles must withstand extreme humidity and temperature cycling. Oxon’s treatment is fully compatible with steam room conditions.
Barefoot Walking Safety
In spa environments, guests typically walk barefoot — which actually provides more direct contact with the floor than shoes. This means that while there is more inherent grip from direct skin contact, any wetness significantly increases slip risk. Anti-slip treatment is essential.
Insurance and Liability for Spas
A slip-and-fall in a spa typically involves guests who are relaxed, potentially in loose clothing, and not fully alert to hazards. Injury claims from spa slip incidents can be significant. Anti-slip treatment — with documented testing — provides essential liability protection.
Treatment Without Disrupting Spa Operations
Anti-slip treatment can be applied room by room during scheduled maintenance periods or overnight. Most spa environments can be fully treated within a two-night window with minimal disruption to business.
