Historical independent test result
Grip Potential Ltd tested a SafeGrip-treated ceramic-tile sample on 11 May 2010 using a pendulum method aligned with BS 7976-2:2002 and the UK Slip Resistance Group guidance cited in the report. The tested sample recorded a mean dry Pendulum Test Value (PTV) of 62 and a mean water-wet PTV of 49. The report classified the tested sample as presenting low slip risk under those test conditions.
Important limitation: the report states that results apply only to the sample and conditions tested and do not imply product approval or endorsement. They are not a guarantee for every substrate, contaminant, application, product batch or site. A current-site assessment is recommended where documented performance is required.
Check compatibility before full application
Do not assume that one treatment is suitable for every tile, stone, sealer or finish. Identify previous waxes, coatings and treatments, then complete a small inconspicuous test area. Stop if the test produces an unacceptable appearance or surface change.
Important safety information
This page is a product overview and does not replace the current label, Technical Data Sheet or Safety Data Sheet. Follow current manufacturer instructions for personal protective equipment, ventilation, first aid, storage and disposal. Do not mix the product with other chemicals unless explicitly instructed. Restrict access during application and rinsing.
Floor-safety limitations
Treatment may improve traction on a compatible floor, but no floor can be guaranteed slip-proof in every condition. Drainage, cleaning, contaminant control, suitable footwear, warning procedures and maintenance remain important.
