Slip testing
for Print Works.

Print works combine continuous ink-and-solvent exposure, paper-dust accumulation, and high-pressure-roller operations — producing PTV briefs with both wet-and-residue and contaminated-dry considerations.

Surfaces tested in print works

The print works surface vocabulary.

Every print works site has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol. We test the actual surfaces present, not a generic baseline.

Specific risk zones

Where the incidents actually happen.

Generic slip testing misses the zones that actually generate incidents. Print Works sites have distinct high-risk zones that warrant independent testing.

Press-roller splashback

Ink residue on surrounding floor.

Solvent-handling station

Localised wet-and-chemical exposure.

Paper-dust aisle accumulation

Fine-particulate slip exposure.

Regulatory framework

Print Works · regulatory context.

Print works slip testing operates under HSE INDG225, COSHH 2002, and DSEAR 2002. UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 reports support HSE compliance.
