Surface Performance Ltd — operating under UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, Lab Schedule No. 7933 — provides BS 7976-2 pendulum slip resistance testing across Glasgow's retail estate. From flagship city-centre stores and shopping centres through to supermarkets, department stores, fashion retail, electronics, pharmacies and motor retail.
Slip injuries are the single largest source of public-liability claims in UK retail. Glasgow's retail catchment generates particularly high footfall — and therefore particularly high incident frequency. After a fall, the only slip evidence accepted by UK courts is a pendulum test report from a UKAS-accredited laboratory. The UKAS endorsement mark on our reports is what differentiates evidence accepted as expert opinion from evidence dismissed under cross-examination.
Across Glasgow retail premises, the highest-risk zones are entrance vestibules during wet weather, polished shop floors common in fashion and jewellery retail, refrigerated supermarket aisles, food court floors, customer toilets, escalator landings and external pedestrian routes through shopping centres.
Glasgow retail premises typically attend within 1–2 weeks of booking. Priority response available for post-incident investigations, RIDDOR cases and pre-litigation testing. Multi-site programmes across Glasgow's retail estate — particularly for major chains and group brands — start from £350 per store for groups of 5+ sites.
