UKAS-accredited pendulum slip resistance testing in Mansfield and across Nottinghamshire. BS 7976 / BS EN 16165 compliant. Reports within 48 hours of attendance.
Mansfield is the largest town in the northern half of Nottinghamshire, with the Four Seasons shopping centre, a substantial market town retail core, and a significant manufacturing and logistics base. The town's hospital (King's Mill), the Mansfield Town FC stadium, and a busy hospitality scene around the Market Place all generate consistent demand for slip resistance testing.
Mansfield visits combine with Sutton-in-Ashfield, Worksop, Newark and central Nottingham. Typical scope includes Four Seasons common parts, retail and food unit testing, the hospital estate, care homes across north Notts, and the major employer sites along the A38 and M1 corridor.
Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (King's Mill), retail and hospitality, Mansfield District Council's leisure and civic estate, manufacturing and logistics employers, and the substantial care home sector across Mansfield and Ashfield.
Mansfield slip claims are heard at Nottingham County Court. NHS Trust litigation in particular sets a high evidential bar — UKAS-accredited testing under BS 7976 is the recognised standard for healthcare occupier compliance evidence.
Surface Performance is one of the relatively small number of testing bodies in the UK with full UKAS accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 for slip resistance testing under BS 7976 and BS EN 16165. UKAS accreditation means our reports are recognised by courts, by insurers, by HSE inspectors, and by the major insurance markets — without challenge.
We are also explicitly independent. We do not sell anti-slip coatings, treatments, mats, or chemical products. Our only commercial output is the test report itself. That independence is what gives our reports their evidential weight: there is no commercial incentive for us to find a problem where there isn't one, or to overlook one where there is.
