Sliptest Australia is a leading independent slip testing company and we provide our services to numerous clients throughout Australia.

We can inspect any floor area, walkway or traffic area and perform tests to comply with the current Australian Standards and National Building Code.

Our client list includes:

Insurance companies

We provide insurance companies in Australia a risk assessment for a new building they have been asked to insure.

We are engaged to perform testing on the pedestrian surfaces in the most at risk areas.

The risk assessment for a public commercial building is a wide scope of work with the slip testing element providing a small but essential part to the overall cost of insurance based on statistical data.

We like to ensure through our Site Safety Program that each site managed by Sliptest Australia knows the risk of its pedestrian surfaces.

This information is then fed back to the insurance company on a quarterly through to annual basis showing the due diligence and duty of care by the facility manager, building owner, cleaning contractor ensuring that a safe and compliant building is being audited and managed.

Body corporates

As part of the annual site safety audit of common areas within the body corporate, certifiers are asking for a slip test to be conducted to ensure these pedestrian surfaces are within the guidelines of the Australian Standards.

By engaging with Sliptest Australia, one of our owner operators throughout Australia will arrive on your site, go through the certifiers report and test the highlighted areas of concern.

Within 24 hours of us being on site you will have our NATA Accredited report outlining the results along with our interpretation of the Australian Standards for the pedestrian surface.

If your surface falls under the recommended slip rating we will work with you and provide guidance for the rectification works.

Every surface throughout your common areas has recommended slip ratings to achieve for the safety of your tenants, owners, and visitors.

We service hundreds of body corporate buildings throughout Australia; providing a simple end-to-end service from booking to final sign off and certification.

Once your site has been set up in our automated scheduling system we turn up test and report when and where you want us in the following years to ensure you know how your site sits with the Australian Standards and National Building Code.

Tile companies, importers and resellers

At Sliptest Australia we certify what the product is as it is presented to us, we can go onsite and meet with you, or test in one of our NATA accredited laboratories throughout Australia when and where you need us.

We test thousands of different tiles, flooring systems, and new pedestrian surfaces every year. We test to AS 4586 and are NATA accredited. We use the pendulum machine to provide you the “P” rating for the surface.

Our point of difference and value add for our clients:

  • Test a new product advising where your flooring surface can be installed
  • Show the applicable Australian Standard
  • Show the applicable NCC Building Code
  • Simplified Test report with photos tailor made for your company.
  • If your product you have presented to us is not fit for intended purpose, we will work with you by suggesting for your own due diligence product development to help bring the ratings up or down.

We look forward to partnering with you and being your preferred testing facility.

Builders / Construction

We work with most of Australia’s largest builders and construction companies and are seeing more of our clients consult with us during product selection process when choosing pedestrian surfaces for their projects.

This is a welcome change in the school of thought due to the many times we have been engaged to test at the end of construction and the results did not meet Australian Standards and rectification work was required days before handover.

Due to the health and safety compliance and insurance requirements we are the national slip testing company of choice in this sector.

We offer advice before and after the test regarding the Australian Standards and the National Building Code. We also certify new and renovated stairways and ramps to ensure they are compliant with the new building code.

We know and respect the importance of getting to the job on time and producing the report in a timely manner – Our test report is issued to you in most cases within 12 hours after testing.

We don’t just test and forget – we will suggest remedial action to help the builder get compliant in the cases where the surface laid has not been up to standard or code.

We welcome you to partner with Sliptest Australia to experience our outstanding customer service and report writing.

Residential / Private homes

We can also provide slip tests to properties where you want to know if you are at risk of potential slips / foot hazards for friends, visitors or family members to your private residence or home.
