UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accredited slip resistance testing for warehouses sites across the North East & Yorkshire — covering Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, County Durham, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and East Riding — including the Teesside Freeport (UK's largest freeport), the Sunderland automotive cluster, Team Valley, the Sheffield AMP within the South Yorkshire Investment Zone, the Wakefield Junction 41 logistics belt, and the Saltend Chemicals Park within the Humber Freeport.
North East & Yorkshire · 7 counties
Sector profile. Warehouses are the highest-volume slip-testing brief in UK industrial. The combination of high MHE traffic, racking-aisle wet-shoe carry-in from yard areas, sealed-concrete coatings under load, and rapidly-evolving e-commerce fulfilment formats creates a continuous stream of new exposure patterns.
Regional industrial cluster. The North East & Yorkshire is a key region for warehouses activity — covering Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, County Durham, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and East Riding — including the Teesside Freeport (UK's largest freeport), the Sunderland automotive cluster, Team Valley, the Sheffield AMP within the South Yorkshire Investment Zone, the Wakefield Junction 41 logistics belt, and the Saltend Chemicals Park within the Humber Freeport.
Every warehouses site in the North East & Yorkshire has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol.
Power-floated concrete with sealer or polyurethane topcoatthe dominant warehouse base finish, tested at racking aisles, pick-faces, and yard-to-internal transitions
Resin-coated concrete in goods-in and goods-out zoneswhere vehicle tyre-washdown and wet-pallet ingress drive elevated wet-PTV exposure
Anti-slip safety coatings at MHE charging pointsparticularly important where ATEX zone classification applies
Vinyl or epoxy walkways through rackingpedestrian-MHE segregation lines must be tested independently of the main aisle
Loading dock leveller plates and dock-edge transitionssteel surfaces with high incident rates due to weather carry-in
Mezzanine flooring (chipboard, steel, composite)often missed but a defined fall-from-height-after-slip risk
