UKAS Slip Testing Serving Limerick & County Limerick

Limerick, with around 95,000 in the city and 200,000 across the county, is a significant market for slip resistance testing. Ireland's third city and the gateway to the Mid-West. Limerick\’s position as a regional hub for aviation, medical devices, and higher education generates consistent demand for independent slip testing.

We travel to Limerick 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 Limerick Different

Shannon Airport remains a critical international gateway, and the combination of high passenger volumes, frequent wet weather from the Atlantic, and varied floor finishes across terminal areas makes aviation-related testing a significant part of our Limerick workload.

Following a complaint from a local authority, we tested a newly-laid pedestrianised area in Limerick city centre. The slip resistance of the decorative paving slabs was borderline in dry conditions but fell to a PTV of 17 when wet — prompting an overhaul of the specification before phase two was laid.

Slip Testing in Limerick — Local Questions

Do you test at Shannon Airport?

Yes — we have worked at Shannon Airport and the surrounding airport hotels. Terminal floors experience extreme wear and contamination and benefit from annual re-testing.

Can you test outdoor pedestrianised streets?

Yes. Local authority pedestrianisation schemes are a recurring area of work, especially where decorative stone is specified for aesthetic rather than slip-resistance reasons.

What about university campuses?

We have tested a number of university campus buildings in Ireland and the UK. Teaching buildings, halls of residence and sports facilities each have distinct slip profiles.
