Slip Testing in Airports

Slip Testing in Railway Stations

Munro has had the pleasure of working on a huge range of railway platforms and stations spanning all major networks.  It should be no surprise that a slip testing service is regularly employed in a railway environment, where the combination of large passenger numbers and the potential for significant injury, even death, delays and disruption mean safety is paramount.  What is surprising however, is how often floors in this environment fail to meet required levels.

Slip Testing in Public Buildings

We are lucky in UK to benefit from a wide range of publicly accessible services ranging from hospitals and surgeries to libraries, leisure centres and the gamut of governmental administration facilities.  Whilst the scope of functions is varied and vast, the requirement for slip resistance across these buildings is not.  All building owners/operators must ensure that walking surfaces are safe if they are to both prevent slip accidents and defend associated slip injury claims.
