Skid Testing

We can carry out skid testing to check compliance with BS EN 13036-4:2011 which explains how to test skid resistance on roads and airfields.

BOT-3000E Testing

We also offer slip resistance / friction testing using the the BOT–3000E. Although this is mainly required for checking slip standards in the United States of America (for example ANSI A137.1 or A326.3), we are also able to use this equipment for other purposes including monitoring floor friction for AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle) suppliers.
