Everything you need to know about slip resistance testing in Australia.


Slip Testing Explained
Slip resistance testing measures the coefficient of friction of flooring surfaces to AS 4586 and AS 4663. It determines a surface's P-rating (P1–P5), indicating its safety under wet conditions. Our NATA-endorsed reports are accepted by insurers and building certifiers across Australia.
Yes. Sliptest Australia holds NATA Accreditation No. 15374, continuously accredited since 2006. We hold one accreditation with accredited sites on the Gold Coast and in Sydney, servicing clients Australia-wide. Slip resistance reports are NATA-endorsed and accepted by insurers and government authorities.
Reports are delivered within 24 hours of the site visit as standard, for both on-site wet pendulum testing (AS 4663) and construction handover testing (AS 4586). Luminance contrast reports are also delivered within 24 hours of the site visit.
P-ratings classify a surface's slip resistance from P1 (low resistance, dry areas only) to P5 (very high resistance, required for high-risk wet areas such as pool surrounds). The NCC sets minimum classifications for ramps, stairs and landings; HB 198 recommends P3 to P5 for most other commercial areas depending on how wet they get. Our reports state the measured P-rating and advise on compliance requirements.
Yes. We provide slip resistance testing nationally. Our NATA-accredited laboratory services clients nationally. Technicians test every week across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Sydney, Newcastle, Wollongong and Melbourne, visit Perth twice a year, and travel to Canberra, Adelaide and regional centres on demand.
Our NATA-endorsed reports record the measured slip resistance and classification of each area tested, and are regularly supplied to insurers, claims managers and legal teams. The report sets out the facts of the test so the people handling the matter can rely on them.
We test to AS 4586 (classification of new pedestrian surface materials), AS 4663 (existing pedestrian surfaces), AS 1428.1 (luminance contrast, accessibility), Q704, MRTS45 and AS 4049.4 for road and skid resistance testing.
