Most flooring suppliers can supply a slip test rating on their floors. However, these results are often just tested in dry conditions and don’t consider wet floor danger.
All floors should provide good slip resistance in dry conditions. Therefore it is easy for suppliers to provide acceptable results.
What many people fail to account for when choosing flooring is slip test results under production conditions. Whilst the floor may be perfectly adequate in dry conditions these can differ dramatically when wet, posing significant wet floor danger.
You can avoid dangerous and costly wet floor dangers like slips by asking a few simple questions:
- Can the flooring supplier provide you with independent slip test data?
- Have these results been tested in both wet and dry conditions?
- Can the flooring supplier provide adequate slip test data to guarantee the safety of your customers/employees under production conditions?
The systems we install create an exceptional bond to most substrates and are designed to last, even under heavy wear. Once installed and fully cured, a seamless and impervious finish is formed with no water being able to penetrate through the system, increasing longevity, reducing costly maintenance works, and mitigating wet floor danger.
