Slip testing
for Fish Processing.

Fish processing combines the wettest production-floor environment in UK industry with continuous brine and ice exposure, plus seasonal-peak processing patterns that stress cleaning regimes during the busiest weeks of the year.

Surfaces tested in fish processing

The fish processing surface vocabulary.

Every fish processing site has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol. We test the actual surfaces present, not a generic baseline.

  1. 01 · SURFACE

    Cementitious polyurethane heavy-duty resin in filleting hallsspecified for brine-resistance

  2. 02 · SURFACE

    Anti-slip aggregate finishes at ice-handling stationswhere ice carry-out is continuous

  3. 03 · SURFACE

    Steel grating over drainagetested independently

  4. 04 · SURFACE

    Concrete with food-grade sealer in landing yardstested under continuous wet exposure

Specific risk zones

Where the incidents actually happen.

Generic slip testing misses the zones that actually generate incidents. Fish Processing sites have distinct high-risk zones that warrant independent testing.

Ice-handling station carry-out

Crushed-ice spillage at filleting stations creates routine wet-PTV exposure.

Brine-tank overflow zones

Brining tank drips defeat standard cleaning.

Landing-yard to processing threshold

External fish-yard residue carried into processing.

Regulatory framework

Fish Processing · regulatory context.

Fish processing slip testing supports FSA Approved Establishment continued approval, BRC Global Standard for Food Safety, and HSE INDG225. UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 reports are accepted by FSA inspectors and BRC auditors.
