UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accredited slip resistance testing for cold storage sites across the Scotland & Northern Ireland — covering Central Scotland, Highland Scotland, the Scottish Borders, and Northern Ireland — including the Forth Green Freeport at Grangemouth/Rosyth, the Aberdeen offshore-energy cluster, Hillington Park (Scotland's largest industrial estate), and the Belfast Harbour Industrial cluster.

Sector profile. Cold storage is statistically the highest-incident sector for industrial slip injuries in the UK. Condensation, frost, and ice formation at door thresholds combine with high-MHE traffic to create exposure patterns that warm-store testing protocols miss entirely. Pendulum testing in cold-store environments requires temperature-corrected procedures and instruments rated for sub-zero operation.
Regional industrial cluster. The Scotland & Northern Ireland is a key region for cold storage activity — covering Central Scotland, Highland Scotland, the Scottish Borders, and Northern Ireland — including the Forth Green Freeport at Grangemouth/Rosyth, the Aberdeen offshore-energy cluster, Hillington Park (Scotland's largest industrial estate), and the Belfast Harbour Industrial cluster.
Every cold storage site in the Scotland & Northern Ireland has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol.
Reinforced concrete with cold-store-rated sealerthe dominant base finish in chilled and frozen storage chambers
Cementitious polyurethane heavy-duty resinin loading-dock and ante-room zones where frost forms
Anti-slip aggregate-keyed coatings at door thresholdsthe single highest-priority intervention zone
Steel grating over drainage at thawing-equipment zonestested independently of surrounding floor
Cold-store door rubber thresholdsfrequently overlooked but a defined slip-zone
Vinyl walkways in pick-and-pack ante-roomswhere temperature differentials drive condensation
