We measure how slippery your floors really are using the pendulum — the HSE's preferred method — and report a defensible Pendulum Test Value backed by UKAS accreditation. Nationwide, with no flooring or anti-slip products to sell.
Slips and trips are the single most common cause of major injury in UK workplaces and the leading cause of accidents to the public. We test your floors in the condition they're actually walked on and give you a clear Pendulum Test Value with a plain-English assessment and recommendations.
Floors tested in place, wet and dry, in three directions to BS 7976-2 / BS EN 16165.
Laboratory and pre-installation testing so a product's PTV is known before it's specified or laid.
Co-ordinated testing and consistent reporting across estates, with evidence for compliance and claims.
The pendulum is the definitive method named in BS 7976-2 / BS EN 16165 and trusted by the HSE and the courts. For large floor areas we can also use SlipAlert as a rapid screening tool that correlates to the pendulum, then confirm with the pendulum where it matters.
From supermarkets and shopping centres to hospitals, schools, leisure centres, airports and museums — see all the sectors we test.
We test floors across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland — find your town or city.
Because we don't supply, fit or treat flooring, our results are impartial. Every test follows BS 7976-2 / BS EN 16165 under our UKAS accreditation (Lab No. 7933) and HSE and UKSRG guidance, with the slider, direction and conditions recorded so it holds up under scrutiny.
Tell us the premises, floor types and location, and we'll confirm scope and price.
