Intended Use of ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strips (SNCS)

Application - Fit-for-purpose

Prior to any application of the ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strips (SNCS) all sites should be inspected.

This will ensure that the products will be fit for the intended purpose and the proposed finished surface. The will also provide the opportunity for the applicator to confirm the integrity of the finished surface that the ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strip (SNCS) products will be installed onto.

Positioning of ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strip (SNCS)

ESP Australia recommends that the proposed design application for the ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strips (SNCS) installation, should also be assessed, prior to installation, to ascertain if the application will achieve compliance with the applicable codes and standards.

ESP Australia recommends that any assessment should only be done by a qualified and knowledgeable person who is experienced and fluent in the use of ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strips (SNCS) within Australia and New Zealand.

Site Compliance with Luminance Contrast

Every finished surface and/or substrate is different and so presents its own nuances of luminance. ESP Australia strongly recommends that luminance contrast testing of the substrate, (finished surface - that being the finished surrounding surface in line with the accessible path of travel), be tested for its luminous value so as to determine that the chosen ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strip (SNCS) product has sufficient luminance contrast.

This will determine if the colour of the selected ESP Stair Nosing and Contrast Strips (SNCS) will be compliant with the applicable legislation, standards and codes.
