Slip testing concrete, quarry tile & industrial floors

Power-floated concrete, quarry tiles and sealed industrial floors carry a lot of traffic — and a lot of water, grease and dust.

Where we find it in Staffordshire
Warehouses, loading bays, commercial kitchens, breweries and back-of-house areas across the county.
Why it can be a slip risk
Power-floated concrete is often smoother than it looks and slippery when wet; quarry tiles grip well until grease builds up in a kitchen. Both are easy to assume are fine when they aren’t.
What we’d do about a poor result
Frequently it’s a cleaning or degreasing issue rather than the floor itself; sometimes an anti-slip treatment or coating is needed. We measure, advise and re-test — without selling you the remedy.

How we test it

  • A UKAS-accredited pendulum test, wet and dry, using the correct rubber slider for how the floor is used
  • A Pendulum Test Value for each area, against the recognised thresholds
  • A clear report in 2–3 working days, with independent recommendations
  • A re-test after any remedial work, to prove the floor now performs

Independent, so no upsell

We test floors; we don’t sell flooring, coatings or cleaning. Whatever we tell you about this surface, there’s nothing we’re selling off the back of it.
