UKAS Slip Testing Serving Drogheda & County Louth

Drogheda, with around 42,000 — the largest town in Ireland, is a significant market for slip resistance testing. Drogheda is one of the largest commuter towns in Ireland and a rapidly-growing retail and industrial centre. Its position on the M1 between Dublin and Belfast makes it a major logistics and hospitality hub.

We travel to Drogheda regularly from our UK laboratory, carrying out on-site BS 7976 pendulum testing, lab sample certification, floor safety audits and expert witness work under the same UKAS ISO 17025 accreditation (Schedule No. 7933) that governs every other job we do. A single accredited report is valid in Irish and UK courts, with insurers, and with the HSA (Republic) or HSE NI (Northern Ireland).

What Makes Drogheda Different

Drogheda\’s retail parks are heavily car-dependent and see enormous volumes of wet footwear during the Irish winter. The entrance zones of these buildings are where the vast majority of slip incidents occur — and they are where our testing most often changes the risk profile.

We carried out a programme of seasonal entrance-zone testing for a major retail operator in Drogheda. The data showed a clear seasonal pattern: PTV values at the entrance fell by an average of 11 points between summer and winter due to wet matting and soiling. The client now rotates matting systems seasonally.

Slip Testing in Drogheda — Local Questions

Can you test retail park entrances?

Yes — this is one of our most frequent Irish jobs. Entrance zones are disproportionately high-risk and benefit enormously from seasonal re-testing.

Do you work with logistics and warehouse facilities?

Yes. We test warehouse floors (especially near loading docks and forklift routes), distribution centres and logistics parks regularly.

How quickly can you attend Drogheda sites?

Because Drogheda is well-served by the M1 from our engineer routes, we can typically attend within 5 working days, and often sooner for urgent cases.
