Anti-skid surface for access covers

摘要

In the field of surface access covers there is a need for a surface access cover that exhibits a greater degree of skid resistance than conventional surface access covers. A surface access cover comprises a cover substrate (10) having one or more upstanding walls (11) extending from an in-use upper face of the substrate (10), the upper face comprising a resin (13) bonded to the substrate (10) using a primer (14), the resin (13) comprising partly-embedded aggregate particles (12) protruding therefrom, a substantial proportion of the aggregate particles (12) protruding above the upper edges of the one or more upstanding walls (11) to form the engaging surface (15).
