Any surface can be a potential slip hazard: Floors, bathtubs, showers, ramps, kitchens, etc… 2. Testing - Using the ASM 825A, we test identified areas to determine the Static Coefficient of Friction (SCOF). ADA guidelines recommend SCOF of .60 and higher. Typical floors fall between .25 and .50. 3. Treatment - Increase traction by producing a “micro-tread” on your slippery surface. Problem areas are treated using a three step process with results that raise the SCOF to .75 or more. 4. Consulting follow-up - Scheduled visits at six and twelve months to test treated areas to ensure proper traction. We provide a two year guarantee with our services.
