What is a slip meter.
The floor surface roughness test saves you money by monitoring changes in floor surface roughness to help you avoid slip injury claims.
Is there a way to measure floor traction.
The pendulum test mimics the way a heel makes contact with a floor and is hse uk s preferred test method.
It is the most widely used and trusted pedestrian slip resistance test method worldwide.
Floor slip resistance testing is the science of measuring the coefficient of friction or resistance to slip accidents of flooring surfaces either in a laboratory before or after installation or on floors in situ.
Improve safety reduce negligence.
Our treatment is specially formulated to create micro alteration to the treated surface that is invisible to the naked eye without affecting the structural integrity of the tiles.
May vary with u s.
