We provide suppliers of flooring products (manufacturers and importers) NATA-endorsed test Independent Testing Australia certification of their pedestrian surface materials. Our in-house laboratory can also assess flooring products prior to installation. QED will tailor a slip resistance testing program to each facility depending on the surfaces involved and pedestrian traffic patterns.

Our Independent Testing Australia reports can help with verification of your property’s yearly compliance. Please contact Safe Environments to discuss how we may assist on providing slip ratings to your flooring products or to your construction site, prior to handover of a new building. We also offer slip ratings after accelerated wear conditioning protocol to assess how the slip ratings may change over time. We offer a range of services to ensure slip resistance for surfaces, including testing to Australian and international standards. The specialists at Safe Environments provide independent NATA accredited floor slip test services to assess the risk of slip and fall accident
A full understanding of material performance in these conditions allows material manufacturers, developers, importers, resellers and specifiers to predict and mitigate potential issues. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight can cause material degradation, colour fading and structural changes over tim
Selecting Independent Testing Australia the right waterproofing membrane is crucial for protecting your building against water damage and ensuring the safety and well-being of its occupants. By ensuring that your building has adequate waterproofing, you can help to protect your property and ensure that it remains safe and healthy for all occupants. Ensuring the bond of a waterproofing membrane to a substrate can play an important consideration in the overall performance of the waterproofing applicatio
The elongation percentage is calculated based on the specimen’s extension from its original gauge length. AS/NZS 4858 serves as the fundamental testing standard for waterproofing membranes used in internal wet areas across Australia and New Zealand. Independent Testing Australia (ITA) is fully accredited to perform waterproofing membrane testing in accordance with the requirements of AS/NZS 4858 and provide NATA endorsed documentatio
ASTM G154 testing is an economical and time-saving way of determining material durability. The test results also indicate possible problems with material aging under certain conditions, enabling more stable and durable products. This information informs material formulation optimization, process optimization, Independent Testing Australia and product design for improved wear and degradation resistance. ASTM G154 significantly contributes to product quality enhancement by replicating various environmental conditions to emphasize the scope for improvement in material integrity and durability. Consistent and standard testing, as prescribed by ASTM G154, has numerous advantages for product development as well as for quality control. It predicts how materials are going to deteriorate during sunlight, heat, and water exposure and assists in product development, material selection, and quality control in different industrie
Safe Environments works hard to provide the highest level of accuracy and reliability for our clients across Australia and to provide professional evidence of compliance with building regulations and code
Electronic Leak Detection [ELD testing] is fast becoming the preferred testing method for builders, waterproof manufacturers and waterproofing contractors who understand time is money on a building sit
Protect Against Insurance Claims & NCC Compliance Failures
The displacement volume test method is a useful test alongside a ramp test where the surface is severely profiled or structured and designed to provide drainage or entrapment of contaminants. While the measurement of slip resistance using wet methods is achieved with Appendices A, C and D, the inherent slip resistance value (uncontaminated surface) is achieved with the dry test (Appendix B) and is the only method suitable for testing under dry conditions. These four slip resistance test options provide an assessment of the contribution of a pedestrian Independent Testing Australia surface to the risk of slipping to assist in the specification of a surface material for most pedestrian applications. This test is more suited to profiled or textured surfaces and may provide a classification of either R9, R10, R11, R12 or R1
This test method helps in the measurement of a product’s alterations during exposure and, therefore, can make improved and durable products, no matter what the weather conditions are like. In the solar radiation method, the stimulation of deteriorating physical and thermal effects of sunlight over the materials, components, and finished products. This method can measure a product’s ability to resist deterioration of mechanical, electrical, and optical characteristics when exposed to light and heat. One of the methods of accelerated weathering test is the xenon arc test, which includes the induction of the weathering process of artificial and natural UV exposure on materials through the appropriate use of instruments. A UV Accelerated Weathering Chamber Diagram includes components such as UV lamps, a specimen holder, a temperature control system, a water spray or condensation system, and a control pane
