Gradus ltd is the leading UK manufacturer of stair nosings.
We have received several enquiries asking as to whether the top and bottom
stair nosings should be a different colour to the rest.
We are aware that this practice is found mainly in transport environmements
but cannot establish whether this practice is based on any published research
or guidance. Experts think that this is not good practice and could lead to
confusion.
I would welcome any comments or whereabouts of any research that back up
this practice.
Thank you
