Hi Guys, I'm at the stage of progressing with having slip resistant treatment to be applied to some flooring within our factory and service areas. We have had a slip measurement survey commissioned and use of the Pendulam test method was used to conclude the results. A number of areas where tested Dry and free contamination, Wet/Contaminated and Cleaned/wet and we had numerous areas that fell below the COF 35 which i'm lead to believe is minimum level HSE advises as acceptable. We have quotes to provide a treatment to the flooring to give us the minimum level of COF that will be increased based on cleaning regimes being adhered to. We are food manufacturing so contamination and wet conditions are going to be present. I guess my question is, has many other people pursued treatments to their flooring and have they found it a reliable and lasting process? Before we approve the works i was hoping to check common opinion on this type of control measure? Thanks,
JonCushen

Bump.

Looking into slip resistant treatment also for a valet bay. Any previous experience of it in general would be appreciated.
