INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS.
Many of Latham Asbraloy™ and Absrabronz™ Safety Stair Tread Nosings and Insert also comply with International Standards and standards of best practice, it should be noted that the Australian Standards and Building Code of Australia in relation to Slip Resistance and Pedestrian Access, Access to Premises and Buildings and Design Access and Mobility are some of the most up to date in the world and are highly respected and enforced by councils and certifiers. Selected Latham profiles meet or exceed the requirements of the A.D.A (USA), The State of California Code for Stair for the visually impaired, ANSI B101.1, ANSI A1264.2, ASTM F1637, UL-410, the slip resistant requirements of the National Floor Safety Institute, ISSA (CMI), DIN51130, DIN51097, EN13845.
