SLIP RESISTANCE VALUES

Polydeck Limited measures the slip resistance values of all its products by using independent testing houses that are qualified in carrying out the Pendulum slip testing method to BS 7976-2.

The following table shows the various slip resistance values for different surface finishes.

Under guidance from the UK Slip Resistance Group Guidelines (2011), all our anti slip products are recognised as providing a surface with ‘low slip potential’.  Test certificates can be provided on request.
