StairCare Projects - SC-R Sydney Aquarium SC-R 38 Square Mesh

The Situation

The high exposure to saltwater rusted the existing galvanized access platform to the shark enclosure and the threat of collapsing created a danger to staff and visitors.

The Solution

Staircare designed and supplied SC-R38 square mesh grating utilizing isophthalic polyester resin with silicon oxide anti-slip grit suitable for high exposure to saltwater. The entire grating was finished in black so that it is not visible from the underwater glass viewing tunnels. To create a safer working environment each step edge was highlighted with a yellow strip.
