Choosing the Right Anti-Slip Treatment Provider

As the variety of anti-slip floor coatings & treatments continues to grow in the UK market, it’s essential to distinguish between reputable providers and those offering less effective solutions. Ensuring the safety of your floors is paramount, and the first step in achieving this is understanding when an anti-slip treatment is necessary. Whether you’re looking to enhance safety in commercial or residential spaces, anti slip coating solutions can provide the necessary traction to prevent accidents caused by slippery surfaces.

For accurate and reliable results, the Pendulum Slip Test is the recognised HSE method for measuring slip resistance of your floors, ensuring that they meet safety standards. This test helps determine the need for non slip for floors solutions, which are critical in high-traffic areas or environments prone to moisture.

If you’re concerned about specific floor materials like porcelain floor tiles or shiney marble floors, we offer targeted treatments to make them safer while maintaining their aesthetic appeal. Whether it’s vinyl, ceramic, or stone, our anti slip coatings options provide long-lasting protection against slips and falls.

Why Choose Beaver Floorcare?

Beaver Floorcare has a proven track record in successfully treating floors to ensure they are safe and fit for purpose. We not only provide effective treatments but also offer maintenance and cleaning recommendations. After a period of time, we can conduct a health check to assess the ongoing safety of your floors.

For assurance, Beaver Floorcare can engage a separate company to perform the pendulum test after treatment, ensuring that results are independently verified. It is advisable for the slip treatment provider not to conduct both the pendulum test and the treatment itself unless specified by the client or backed by a strong reputation.

Types of Treatments Available

Several options exist for enhancing slip resistance, including chemical treatments and coatings. The choice of treatment will depend on:

The type of floor surface.
Whether the risk of slipping occurs when the surface is wet or dry.

Identifying slip issues before they occur

Slip issues can become costly for the building owner or the tenant if they are not addressed before someone slips and makes a claim. Floors should be observed, tested and treated before a serious situation follows with legal proceedings.

Rectifying Slippery Floors

Conducting a Slip Resistance Test
The first step in addressing slippery floors is to have an independent slip resistance or pendulum test conducted by Beaver Floorcare. This test measures the PTV (Pendulum Test Value) of your floor when both dry and wet. If the PTV is below 36 when wet, a remedial treatment is necessary. We will investigate further to understand why the floor is not safe.

Does My Floor Need Anti-Slip Treatment?

Recognising the Signs
The need for anti-slip treatment often becomes evident after an incident, such as someone slipping, nearly having an accident, or filing a claim against the floor owner. If you suspect that your floor may be unsafe, it’s essential to take action.

Some Frequently Asked Questions

What is anti-slip flooring?

Anti-slip flooring refers to floors treated or coated with specialist solutions that increase surface traction to reduce slips and falls. These treatments can be applied to various floor types to improve safety in both commercial and residential settings.

Which floor types can benefit from anti-slip treatments?

Anti-slip solutions are suitable for a wide range of surfaces, including:

Concrete floors (polished, sealed or bare)
Natural stone floors (marble, granite, slate, terrazzo)
Ceramic and porcelain tiles
Vinyl, LVT, Amtico and resilient floors
Epoxy or resin-coated industrial floors
Each surface is assessed to determine the best anti-slip process and coating.

How do anti-slip coatings and treatments work?

Anti-slip solutions either alter the surface texture or enhance grip chemically, depending on the floor type. This can involve broadcast aggregates, chemical etchants, textured sealers, or specialist coatings that increase friction without compromising appearance.

What processes are used for anti-slip floor treatment?

Common processes include:

Surface profiling and preparation to ensure coatings adhere properly
Chemical etching on stone or tiled floors to increase microscopic texture
Broadcasting grit or aggregates into wet coatings for grip
Applying slip-resistant sealers or coatings tailored to the specific floor type
Professional processes ensure safety improvements without weakening the floor.
