Practical Information from Real Experience
Daniels Resources are informed by practical experience gained through:
Slip Resistance Testing → Risk Assessments → Expert Witness Investigations → Training
This combination provides a practical perspective on floor slip resistance and slip, trip and fall risk that extends beyond the test result itself.
Our aim is to provide useful technical information that helps clients ask the right questions, better understand their test results and make informed decisions about pedestrian safety.
