Slip Resistant Flooring Solutions for Workplaces


 

While considering choosing the right flooring for the workplace there are two types of considerations are to make. One is to avoid the slipping and the other is to keep in mind the weather in the winters while it is snowing around or raining.

The concrete floors are popular to use with the mats fixed on the floors. The heavier mats are better so they do not roll and make tripping accidents.

The other slip resistance flooring solution is to apply anti-slip treatment to the floors. The anti-slip treatment consists of making the floors safe to tread on without slipping.

Slip test is done to determine the safety of the floor in the workplace. The slip test is performed in dry conditions of the floors as well as the when the floor is wet. It is the slip test that finalizes what kind of treatment the workplace floor needs. Every floor needs a customized anti-slip treatment. There is not one treatment for all. Wood and tile floors need different floor safety testing and anti-slip treatment.

Usually the pendulum slip test is used for the floor safety testing. The polished floors like wood and tiles lose their slip resistance when polished. Therefore, floor safety testing should be done to keep the employees and the visitors safe at workplace.

Anti-slip service and pendulum test should be done to keep the workplace safe during the winters when it is snowing around and mats are not the ultimate solution.
