What are Pedestrian and Traffic Coating Systems?
Pedestrian coating systems are specialized surface treatments that are applied to walkways, stairs, and other high-traffic areas to improve their durability, slip resistance, and appearance.
Traffic coatings are specialized types of protective coatings applied to concrete or other surfaces to provide a durable, slip-resistant, and weather-resistant layer that can withstand the wear and tear from vehicular traffic and other harsh conditions. They are commonly used on parking garages, ramps, roadways, bridge decks, and other surfaces exposed to high levels of traffic.
Why are Pedestrian and Traffic Coating Systems Important?
- Enhance safety
- Durability
- Aesthetic appeal
- Reduced maintenance costs

FAQs
Do pedestrian coatings improve safety?
Yes, pedestrian coatings incorporate slip-resistant aggregate or texture that improves traction in wet conditions, reducing slip-and-fall risk. They also create a visible, uniform walking surface that helps direct foot traffic.
What are pedestrian and traffic coating systems?
These are protective membrane systems applied to concrete surfaces like parking decks, walkways, and plaza areas that are subject to foot traffic or vehicle traffic. They waterproof the concrete slab, resist abrasion, and prevent moisture and chlorides from reaching the reinforcing steel below.
What are pedestrian and traffic coating systems? (detail)
Pedestrian and traffic coating systems are durable, flexible membranes applied to concrete surfaces that experience foot traffic, vehicular traffic, or both. They waterproof the concrete deck while providing a slip-resistant wearing surface, protecting the structure from moisture infiltration and chloride exposure.
