Which stair renovation is suitable for public buildings?

renovatie van trappen in openbare gebouwen

Public buildings — libraries, town halls, museums, courts, government buildings — have stairwells that are used daily by a broad and diverse public. From the elderly to children, from visitors with reduced mobility to emergency services.

Responsibility for safety and ease of maintenance lies with the manager or owner. The broader framework of requirements can be found in stair renovation for owners' associations and commercial buildings.

Short answer

For public buildings, EverStep Solid is the designated choice. The system complies with NEN 7909 anti-slip, fire class Bfl-s1 and has emission performance at Indoor Air Comfort Gold level. Technical documentation is available for inclusion in specifications and tenders.

Why public buildings have strict requirements

Public buildings are used by everyone — including people with reduced mobility, the elderly and children. Anti-slip is therefore not only a technical requirement but also a responsibility. More about that role can be found in why anti-slip matters in apartment buildings.

Moreover, public buildings are increasingly tendered with explicit requirements for emissions, sustainability and demonstrable performance.
