Slip-less Services – The Pioneers of Safety solutions for entries in Australia
In 2001, a moment of curiosity sparked a movement. While walking to a restaurant in Singapore, Michael Palas noticed something unusual at the entrance, a sleek umbrella wrapping machine. Intrigued, he stopped, tested it, and marveled at the simple brilliance of the idea: a neat, efficient way to keep wet umbrellas from turning floors into safety hazards.
On his way out, he paused once more and wrote a note which made its way back to his desk in Australia, where it sat untouched for three months until vision turned into action and Slip-less services was born.
Slip-less didn’t just bring a new product to Australia, it solved a real problem which was one of the top safety hazards. At a time when wet floors in commercial spaces, schools, and shopping centers posed silent but serious risks, Slip-less saw an opportunity to transform public safety standards.
From the ground up, Slip-less pioneered the adoption of umbrella wrapping machines across Australia. It wasn’t easy introducing a new concept to a market unaware of the problem. It took persistence, education, and innovation. With a steadfast vision to prevent slips, falls, and costly accidents, Slip-less set a new benchmark for floor safety nationwide.
Michael set a new standard for safety in commercial buildings, schools, and businesses. What started as an idea became a mission: to make public spaces safer, smarter, and better prepared.
Today, Slip-less remains at the forefront of safety solutions. What began as a passing encounter has become a mission to create safer spaces for everyone.
