Surfaces tested in mot centres & vehicle workshops

The mot centres & vehicle workshops surface vocabulary.

Every mot centres & vehicle workshops site has a distinct surface vocabulary that drives the testing protocol. We test the actual surfaces present, not a generic baseline.

  2. 02 · SURFACE

    Resin coatings around lifts and pitstested under representative wear

Specific risk zones

Where the incidents actually happen.

Generic slip testing misses the zones that actually generate incidents. MOT Centres & Vehicle Workshops sites have distinct high-risk zones that warrant independent testing.

Lift-and-pit drip perimeter

Continuous vehicle-fluid drips.

Customer-reception threshold

Weather carry-in.

Wash-bay perimeter

Continuous wet exposure.
