Industry applications
Industrial walkways and platforms, mezzanine flooring, vehicle decks (trailers, buses, marine), stair treads, ship decks and machine guarding.

Chequered plates (also called tear-drop or floor plates) are hot-rolled steel plates with a raised diamond or tear-drop pattern on one face. The raised pattern provides anti-slip grip for industrial flooring, walkways, vehicle decks and stair treads.
