Floor types we test
Different surfaces fail in different ways. Find yours to see why it can be a risk and how we test it.
Ceramic & porcelain tiles
Glazed ceramic and porcelain tiles are everywhere — entrances, kitchens, wet rooms, shopping-centre malls — and they’re one of the surfaces most likely to fail a wet slip test.
How we test it →Vinyl & safety flooring
Sheet vinyl and ‘safety’ flooring (the kind with grit or aggregate built in) are common in kitchens, healthcare and wet areas — but they don’t stay slip-resistant forever.
How we test it →Stone, terrazzo & polished concrete
Marble, granite, terrazzo and polished concrete look superb in a foyer — and are some of the most slippery floors there are once they’re wet.
How we test it →Resin & epoxy floors
Resin and epoxy floors are the workhorses of industrial and commercial buildings — and how they perform underfoot depends entirely on the finish.
How we test it →Concrete, quarry tile & industrial
Power-floated concrete, quarry tiles and sealed industrial floors carry a lot of traffic — and a lot of water, grease and dust.
How we test it →External paving, decking & ramps
Outside surfaces face the worst conditions of all — rain, frost, algae and slope — and are a common source of slip and trip claims.
