Protect Campus Staff and Students. Keep Your University Moving Safely in Winter. 

University campuses operate like small cities. In winter, thousands of students, faculty, visitors, and staff move across the same icy walkways, stairs, ramps, parking lots, and service roads all day and night. Facilities crews clear snow, maintenance teams respond to urgent repairs, campus police patrol outdoor routes, and dining and housing staff travel between buildings on slick surfaces that refreeze quickly.

Ice Cleats for Universities

A single slip can lead to student injuries, employee downtime, costly claims, and reputational impact. At Winter Walking, we do not just sell ice cleats. We help universities implement campus traction programs that reduce winter slip risk for both staff and field roles while supporting uninterrupted campus operations.



Why Universities Choose Winter Walking 

  • Built for High Foot Traffic Campus Environments
    Campuses include concrete sidewalks, brick paths, icy plazas, metal stairs, parking decks, and mixed indoor to outdoor transitions. Our traction solutions are selected to perform across these changing surfaces common in academic settings.

  • Reducing Liability and Protecting Campus Reputation 
    Slip and fall incidents involving students, visitors, or staff create major exposure. A proactive traction program supports risk reduction, helping prevent claims and protect your university’s image.

  • Supporting 24/7 Campus Operations 
    Universities run continuously through winter. Snow removal crews, trades, security teams, and housing staff must stay mobile during storms and refreeze events. Reliable traction keeps essential services steady and responsive.

  • Works Within PPE Policies and Procurement Standards 
    Campus PPE rules, union requirements, and purchasing processes must be respected. We help you roll out traction solutions that align with your policies and reporting needs.
