About Us
For over 50 years Handi-Ramp, parent company for the Handi-Treads and Stop-the-Slip products, has been developing and delivering personalized, high-quality and cost efficient solutions .
19,000 people die as a result of slips and falls every year and thousands more suffer serious injuries. The National Safety Council reports that slips and falls cost the US economy $30 billion every year. We responded by developing The Handi-TreadTM.
Unlike adhesive tape strips or non-slip paint that can peel-off or wear-out in a few months, Handi-Treads 100% aluminium patented dimpled treads provide unmatched traction and permanent protection for family members or visitors. The strips screw onto any surface in minutes and come with a lifetime guarantee not to wear out.
Handi-Treads initially introduced the non-slip treads to commercial and industrial users and they quickly caught the attention of facility management professionals and contractors charged with keeping buildings safe and accessible in all weather conditions. It soon became clear that individual homeowners and small business proprietors would also benefit from the outstanding performance and slip protection offered by the non-skid treads and the company began to broaden its marketing efforts.
Handi-Ramp is a Kenosha, WI-based company that has been designing and manufacturing ramps, lifts and other accessibility solutions for wheelchairs, pedestrians and rolling equipment since 1958. Many of the firm’s ramps are used by governmental agencies, schools, churches, hotels and other public and commercial facilities to meet ADA requirements. Handi-Ramp products are available across North America including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Canada. For more information visit, www.handiramp.com.
