We can offer a definitive measure of slip resistance providing overwhelming evidence that a floor is safe or slippery. Pendulum testing is widely recognised as the only on site slip testing method suitable for legal proceedings, being the preferred method of both the HSE and UK Slip Resistance Group. We regularly work alongside forensic engineers, solicitors or lawyers to produce expert reports suitable for the rigors of court scrutiny.

 

Benefits of our forensic test service include;

BS 7976 Pendulum slip testing used for direct measurement of the surface in question, using contaminants reported on the surface at the time of the slip. "This is HSE's preferred method of testing because it is accurate, portable and works in the conditions that slip accidents happen" - www.hse.gov.uk.

Rz surface roughness measurement conducted in support of all applicable Pendulum test values.

A thorough and comprehensive test report outlining methods used and clearly classifying the performance of the floor surface as per HSE/UKSRG guidelines. Request a sample report.

Assessments and reports produced by experienced professionals. We investigate slip and fall incidents, in a wide range of environments and circumstance, on a daily basis.

External, independent UKAS calibration certificates freely available on request for all test equipment used.

Fast, flexible and realistically priced service.

Nationwide coverage.

A lawyer dealing with a slip and fall case has said of our services, "It seems to me that we will be best placed to destroy the Defendant's objections with the evidence of Mr Powers [of Grip Potential Ltd] himself. He seems to me to be an excellent witness and I am very impressed with the quality of his report to date." The case was settled in the Claimant's favour soon after.
BS7976-2 pendulum testing remains the HSE and UKSRG's preferred slip testing method used extensively in litigation and daily by Grip Potential consultants.
