PENDULUM TESTING

 

Traffik is one of the leading slip resistance testing companies in the UK and offers both on-site slip-resistance tests and sample testing at our Head Office in Wiltshire.

 

It is a legal requirement to ensure the slip resistance provided by your commercial flooring is fit for purpose and meets the requirements of British standard BS7976 as defined by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).  

 

The TRL Pendulum Slip Resistance Test is the only assessment method recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and the Law Courts. Should someone slip or fall on your floor and decide to make a personal injury claim, the only evidence that is likely to be allowed in court will be Pendulum Test Results taken by an independent tester in the area in which the slip or accident occurred.

 

Traffik offer:

• Complete floor testing and evaluation using the Pendulum test (to BS7976) to UK Slip Resistance Group Guidelines

• Slip Alert monitoring tools

 

Traffik provide test results in two ways:

1. Assessment of pedestrian slip potential (existing floor untreated): A slip resistance test report showing - site tested, method used, results obtained (SRVs) and whether the floor is suitable for purpose.

2. Assessment of pedestrian slip potential post Traffik anti slip treatment: A compliance certificate to confirm the slip resistance of the floor surface following treatment based on the BS7976 standard.
