Durbar Plate for Mezzanine Floors
When selecting a decking material for your mezzanine floor, safety, durability, and performance are paramount. Durbar plate decking from Hi-Level Mezzanines is an outstanding choice for businesses operating in industrial, commercial, and high-traffic environments. Known for its strength and anti-slip properties, this steel decking option is designed to withstand demanding conditions while ensuring a safe and stable surface.
What is Durbar Plate Decking?
Durbar plate decking is made from hot-rolled steel with a distinctive raised pattern evenly distributed across its surface. This pattern provides exceptional grip, even in wet or oily conditions, reducing the risk of slips and falls. The material’s inherent robustness makes it a preferred choice for mezzanine floors in heavy-duty and industrial settings.
In addition to its safety benefits, Durbar plate decking offers excellent load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for environments with heavy machinery, storage, and foot traffic. Whether you need a reliable flooring solution for a warehouse, logistics centre, or production facility, Durbar plates deliver outstanding performance.

Durability and Longevity
