Floors in commercial and industrial premises are required by state legislation to be safe and non slip for staff, visitors and customers.

But do you regularly check the condition of your floors? If not then you need to either carry out your own checks and record them or you need to engage the services of an independent consultant.

Grip Wise Anti-Slip have been testing and reporting on the condition of floors since 2003. We can carry out a quick 10 minute test to determine the static coefficient of friction of floors in your facility.

We will then provide you with a written report detailing our findings and with recommendations to correct any defects.

Buy Your Own Slip Meter

Carry out your own regular floor safety checks with an ASM 825 digital slip meter.

A simple test of the coefficient of friction levels of your floors and walkways will provide valuable data about safety levels and ongoing maintenance. Regular readings in the log book, provided with your slip meter, is useful in defence of negligence litigation.

Recent insurance studies in the food industry have revealed that slip fall accidents accounted for over 40% of dollar claims paid out.

Legislation in every state and territory require the provision of floors that have anti slip surfaces or maintained in a non slip condition.

A static co-efficient of friction of 0.5 has traditionally been recognised as providing a non hazardous walkway surface.
