SlipTest - Bodenrutschtests
Anti-slip certification is used regularly by our clients to certify new flooring products, determine suitability for a given environment or compare properties of potential flooring choices.We aim to provide everything necessary for those seeking to prove the performance of their product, for sale, tender, or compliance with specification.We provide BS 7976 Pendulum Test Values (PTV's), the Health & Safety Executive and UK Slip Resistance Group's preferred method of test. If someone slips and makes a claim it is this method that will be used in a UK court to determine liability.

In addition, we conduct BS 1134 surface roughness (Rz) measurement. Rz values are often specified by architects and are included in our sample tests, where surfaces permit such testing, at no extra cost.The resultant standalone test certificate can be used in marketing your product, letting your clients know how good your product is by supplying independent expert evidence, directly or in marketing. When your products are in direct competition with others, being able to prove the safety of your surfaces is a strong selling aid and helps give those responsible parties who have to live with the finished product peace of mind.
