Importance of Non-Slip Compliance

Non-slip compliance is a crucial safety measure for any commercial, industrial, or public space where foot traffic is constant and the risk of slips and falls is heightened. Floors that meet non-slip standards significantly reduce the likelihood of accidents, making the environment safer for employees, customers, and visitors. By proactively addressing potential hazards, businesses can minimize workplace injuries, avoid costly legal liabilities, and comply with local and national safety regulations.

Beyond legal requirements, non-slip compliance demonstrates a commitment to creating a safe and responsible workplace, enhancing the overall reputation of the business. In industries where moisture, oils, or debris are prevalent, such as kitchens, factories, and healthcare facilities, non-slip flooring solutions are essential to maintaining operational efficiency while safeguarding the well-being of everyone in the space.

Ways of Achieving Non-Slip Compliance

  • Textured surface treatments: Applying abrasive coatings, etching, or embedding grit particles into flooring materials to increase friction and reduce slippage.
  • Anti-slip additives: Incorporating specialised materials like aluminum oxide or silicon carbide into floor finishes or coatings to enhance traction.
  • Slip-resistant mats and runners: Strategically placing rubberized or textured mats in high-risk areas to provide additional grip and absorb moisture.
  • 4. Proper maintenance protocols: Implementing regular cleaning schedules, promptly addressing spills, and using appropriate cleaning products to maintain optimal floor conditions and reduce slip hazards.

Applications of Non-Slip Flooring

From preventing accidents in commercial kitchens and public facilities to enhancing grip in industrial workshops and high-traffic areas, our non-slip applications provide reliable protection where it's needed most.

Calcium Chloride Testing: Is Your Floor Ready?

Calcium chloride testing is a vital step in assessing a concrete slab's readiness for covering materials. The test measures a slab's moisture vapor emission rates by placing a pre-weighed calcium chloride disc under a sealed sheet for 24 hours. The accumulated weight helps calculate vapor emission rates, which ideally range between 3-5. Technicians must adhere to specific protocols to ensure accurate results, which include meticulous surface preparation and maintaining the test setup for 60-72 hours.

How to Test Epoxy Bond Strength on Floors

Epoxy bond strength on floors are assessed using specific tools and protocols to ensure adherence to industry standards. Measurement tools include tensile testing machines, peel strength test devices, and surface preparation tools. To determine if a surface is ready for epoxy bonding, technicians conduct various tests such as moisture testing, visual and tactile inspections, pH testing and surface roughness measurements. Pull-off testing, following ASTM D4541 guidelines, measures the epoxy's bond strength by applying a controlled force on the surface.

5 Best Calcium Chloride Tests For Epoxy Floors

Calcium chloride testing is crucial for successful epoxy floor installations by providing data on subfloor moisture levels. The test requires a very specific environment, with temperatures between 65-75°F and a humidity of 40-60% for roughly 72 hours. Equipment selection, meticulous test site cleaning, and adherence to test setup are key steps to ensure accurate results. These results inform whether the concrete meets manufacturers’ moisture level requirements for epoxy installation. If moisture levels are too high it can lead to coating failure and decreased floor longevity.
