How often should floors be tested?
We recommend slip testing annually as a minimum, or more frequently for high-traffic areas, wet environments, or surfaces that show visible wear. Testing should also be done after any floor treatment, new installation, incident, or significant change in use. Regular testing helps maintain an ongoing record of compliance.
