If someone slips and is injured on your premises, you could be liable if you haven't taken reasonable steps to ensure floor safety. A professional slip test provides documented evidence of your due diligence and identifies any surfaces that need attention.
What is a P-rating?
A P-rating is a classification of a floor's slip resistance when wet, measured using the wet pendulum test to AS 4586. Ratings range from P0 (very slippery) to P5 (excellent slip resistance). Different environments require different minimum P-ratings. For example, commercial kitchens typically require P4 or P5, while general indoor areas typically need P3 or above.
How long does a slip test take?
A typical slip test takes between 1 to 3 hours depending on the size of the area and the number of surfaces being tested. Greg will arrive at your premises with all necessary equipment and can test multiple floor surfaces in a single visit. You'll receive your report the same day or within 24 hours.
What is AS 4586?
AS 4586:2013 is the Australian Standard for slip resistance classification of new pedestrian surface materials. It specifies the test methods and classification system (P-ratings for wet pendulum, R-ratings for oil-wet ramp) used to assess how slip-resistant a new floor surface is before installation.
