Why Slip Resistant Flooring?
Slip resistant flooring is essential for maintaining safe working environments and reducing the risk of slips, trips and falls in industrial, commercial and public spaces. Areas exposed to water, oils, chemicals, food waste or heavy foot traffic can quickly become hazardous, making it important to install flooring systems that provide enhanced grip, durability and long-term performance.
The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 require employers, building owners and facilities managers to ensure that floors and traffic routes are suitable for their intended use and do not pose a risk of injury. Slip resistant resin flooring helps organisations improve workplace safety, support compliance and create safer environments for employees, visitors and contractors

When the hazard itself can’t be removed, an anti-slip floor coating can be installed to give workers extra support in wet, dusty, or otherwise slippery situations.

ASSESSING THE SLIP RESISTANCE OF FLOORING:
Research carried out by HSL, in conjunction with the UK Slip Resistance Group (UKSRG) and the British Standards Institution, has shown that, portable scientific test instruments can accurately assess the slipperiness of flooring materials.
There are 2 instruments used.
- a pendulum, used in the pendulum coefficient of friction (CoF) test (HSE’s preferred method of slipperiness assessment
- a surface microroughness meter
These tests are carried out by independent surface consultants.
By checking the slip resistance of your surfaces, you can ensure that your flooring conforms to workplace regulations as required.

SLIP-RESISTANT FLOORING: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Quick answers to the questions we get asked most about our slip resistant flooring systems — from downtime and load capacity to safety, installation and lead times.
How quickly can the floor be back in use?
Standard epoxy is typically walk-on in 12–24 hours and full-traffic in 3–7 days. Where downtime is critical, our fast-cure MMA systems return to full traffic in 1–2 hours — so we can work overnight or zone-by-zone around live operations.
Can you install while we keep operating?
Yes. Most installs are phased — we section off areas, work nights or weekends, and sequence the install so racking and traffic keep moving. We plan the programme around your operation at the survey stage.
How long will the floor last?
With the right specification and proper preparation, our resin floors typically last 10+ years in heavy-duty environments. Every installation is backed by a workmanship guarantee.
Do you handle surface preparation and repairs?
Yes — full surface preparation is always included: shot-blasting or diamond grinding, joint and crack repair, moisture testing, and substrate priming.
