UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accredited slip resistance testing for food manufacturing sites across the North East & Yorkshire — covering Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, County Durham, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and East Riding — including the Teesside Freeport (UK's largest freeport), the Sunderland automotive cluster, Team Valley, the Sheffield AMP within the South Yorkshire Investment Zone, the Wakefield Junction 41 logistics belt, and the Saltend Chemicals Park within the Humber Freeport.
North East & Yorkshire · 7 counties
Sector profile. Food manufacturing creates the most demanding slip-testing environment in UK industry. Wet washdown regimes, organic residue, hot/cold zone transitions, hygienic resin floors, and BRC-driven cleaning chemistry all interact to produce slip risks that vary hour-by-hour through a production shift.
Regional industrial cluster. The North East & Yorkshire is a key region for food manufacturing activity — covering Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, County Durham, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and East Riding — including the Teesside Freeport (UK's largest freeport), the Sunderland automotive cluster, Team Valley, the Sheffield AMP within the South Yorkshire Investment Zone, the Wakefield Junction 41 logistics belt, and the Saltend Chemicals Park within the Humber Freeport.
Every food manufacturing site in the North East & Yorkshire has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol.
Polyurethane methyl methacrylate (PMMA) hygienic flooringthe dominant high-care food production finish, with PTV strongly affected by cleaning chemistry
Cementitious polyurethane (Flowfresh, Ucrete) heavy-duty production floorsthe BRC-favoured finish for wet-washdown zones
Epoxy resin floors in low-care zones, packing halls and ancillary areastested under representative wet conditions
Mechanically-keyed anti-slip aggregate finishes at process-water entry pointsthe highest-priority intervention zones
Stainless steel and aluminium tread plates at platform transitionstested independently of floor
Drainage-channel grilles and floor-drain surroundshigh-incident edge zones
