[Histonet] Slippery floors

[Terri Braud]

Dear Dorianne - 
Over 40+ years, I've seen all sorts of attempts at solving the "slippery floor" issue; mats, special flooring, etc.  In my experience, there is no substitute for having the Environmental Services folks, strip the floors every 2 weeks.  I find that while applications of floor finish (wax)make the floors look nice and shiny, they only serve to exacerbate the slipperiness. Try it, you will like it!

Subject: [Histonet] slippery floors
Dear all,
we are currently experiencing problems due to our lab/corridor linoleum floors which have become too slippery.
Anyone experiencing the same problem? If so, can you please suggest any solutions/measures taken to make the floor less slippery.
Regards,
Dorianne
