Pendulum Test for Washrooms
The Pendulum Test provides a measured assessment of the slip resistance of suitable flooring. In washroom environments, this can help assess surface performance where water and cleaning residues may be present.

GripBooster supports floor-safety assessment through Pendulum Test services for washrooms and other areas where moisture can increase slipping risk. Washrooms are frequently exposed to water, cleaning products, and wet footwear, making slip resistance an important consideration for patients, visitors, and healthcare staff.
A Pendulum Slip Resistance Test helps assess the slip resistance of suitable floor surfaces under specified test conditions. The results can support a better understanding of surface performance and help identify whether further assessment or an appropriate anti-slip solution should be considered.

Washroom Flooring
Purpose
Assess floor slip resistance under suitable test conditions
Project Summary
Wet-Area Floor Safety
Washrooms need careful attention to floor conditions because moisture and routine cleaning can affect traction. Testing can provide useful information for facility teams reviewing slip risks and maintenance requirements.
Evidence-Based Next Steps
Test findings can help guide further investigation, maintenance planning, or consideration of a suitable anti-slip treatment. Conclusions should be based on actual test readings and the applicable assessment criteria.
Our Testing Approach
1
Surface Review
Review the washroom flooring type, condition, and the conditions in which the area is used.
2
Pendulum Slip Resistance Test
Carry out Pendulum testing on suitable surfaces using appropriate procedures and test conditions.
3
Result Review
Review recorded test values against relevant criteria, where applicable, without assuming results before measurement.
4
Recommendations
Discuss practical next steps based on the actual findings, surface type, and site requirements.
Supporting Safer Washrooms
Pendulum slip resistance testing can support floor-safety reviews in washrooms and other wet areas. The appropriate test method and interpretation depend on the surface, use conditions, and applicable requirements. Specific readings or compliance claims should be reported only when supported by the test results.
