Surfaces tested in hgv & commercial vehicle workshops

The hgv & commercial vehicle workshops surface vocabulary.

Every hgv & commercial vehicle workshops 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. HGV & Commercial Vehicle Workshops sites have distinct high-risk zones that warrant independent testing.

HGV inspection pit perimeter

Long pit edges combine fall-from-height with wet-PTV exposure.

AdBlue handling station

Localised chemical-fluid exposure.

Diesel-handling perimeter

Hydrocarbon-residue accumulation.
