What Makes Dundalk Different

Dundalk\’s cold storage and food manufacturing sector presents unusual slip challenges: floors can be simultaneously wet, cold, and contaminated with organic material. Standard testing regimes often miss these conditions, and we tailor our protocols to replicate real-world operational conditions.

We completed a full pendulum survey across a Dundalk cold storage facility where an employee had slipped in a blast-freezer approach zone. Testing at the actual operational temperature revealed PTV values 8 points lower than the manufacturer\’s data sheet suggested. The client redesigned their footwear policy and entrance matting as a result.

Slip Testing in Dundalk — Local Questions

Do you test cold storage and freezer areas?

Yes. These present genuinely distinct slip conditions and we can test at operational temperatures where safe to do so.

Can you do cross-border multi-site projects?

Yes. One of our advantages for Dundalk-based operators is that our UKAS accreditation covers both jurisdictions — we can produce one consistent set of reports spanning both sides of the border.

What about food manufacturing facilities?

Food manufacturing is one of the most slip-prone sectors. Wet floors, organic contamination, and high cleaning chemical concentrations all reduce slip resistance. We test regularly in this sector.
