Dealing With Slip Hazards Caused by Confetti

Confetti can create slip hazards, especially on smooth or tiled flooring. To reduce risk, use lightweight tissue confetti, which is less slippery than metallic types. Clearly mark the area affected and clean up promptly after the drop. Consider assigning staff for immediate post-event cleaning. Anti-slip mats or flooring in high-traffic zones can offer extra safety. Avoid using confetti near stairs or exits. For large events, inform venue management of your confetti plans and follow safety protocols. Proper planning and maintenance ensure that the excitement of confetti doesn’t come at the cost of guest safety and comfort.
