In Stock Now, the Tarkett Johnsonite Color Splash Raised Square Rubber Stair Tread Blue 48in provides reliable coverage and slip resistance for commercial stairs with its 48 inch by 12.25 inch dimensions. This stair tread is designed to answer the constant demands of busy facilities-built long and wide enough to cover most steps in a single piece, minimizing seams and installation hassle. Made in the United States, it stands out for its straightforward functionality and durability, covering stairways in office buildings, schools, and healthcare environments where code compliance is a baseline expectation, not an afterthought. If you're specifying for a large project, the American manufacturing origin adds peace of mind, since you're meeting safety and quality benchmarks required by demanding commercial standards.
The raised square finish is more than just a surface detail-it's a performance feature. Every square in the tread provides extra grip underfoot, an asset when managing slip concerns in high-traffic public spaces. This profile meets ADA traction requirements, which is increasingly non-negotiable for interior fit-outs. The resilient rubber absorbs sound and impact, making stairs quieter and less punishing under constant use. Compared to harder stair materials, this makes a genuine difference over the long haul in noise-sensitive environments. The 12.25-inch width is intentionally specified to align with most standard stair codes, so you avoid the awkward gaps or off-center treads you sometimes see with generic options.
Visually, the Blue color variant has staying power. Tarkett developed the Color Splash series to resist fading, so you won't notice that tired, washed-out look after a few years of foot traffic. The surface also resists soil, making regular cleaning as simple as a mop and standard commercial cleaner-maintenance teams won't need to wrestle with special processes or products. For specifiers handling renovations or new builds, this kind of hard-wearing color stability helps maintain a consistent appearance over time across every stairway in a facility.
Accessories-including compatible adhesives and nosing-are available separately, giving you the flexibility to meet extra code or project-specific demands. The tread itself provides a sturdy base layer for almost any installation, and with a five-year warranty backing it, there's assurance in the investment. The substantial thickness delivers underfoot support without complicating installation or replacement cycles, streamlining both initial work and ongoing maintenance.
The Color Splash Raised Square profile isn't just about technical compliance or impact absorption-there's value in its ability to maintain a sharp, finished look in demanding commercial use. Both architects and facilities managers benefit from a tread that keeps up visually and structurally, whether the install is in a university science building or a retail stairwell that sees hundreds of crossings each day.
