When is a floor truly safe?

Wednesday, June 3, 11:30 AM, Room 1
Speaker: Sabrina Bonarius
Organization: GripFactory

Slipping, tripping, and falling: these are not minor incidents, but one of the biggest causes of injury in the Netherlands. Yet floor safety is still too often addressed with warning signs, procedures, and rules of conduct. But let's be honest: a slippery floor remains slippery.

In this lecture, you will discover when a floor is truly safe and when it only appears that way. We show why behavior is never the solution without the right technique, and how factors such as dirt, moisture, and modern floor finishes increase the risk.

You will gain insight into how slip resistance is objectively measured according to international standards and why measurement must always be the first step. No assumptions, no standard solutions, but substantiated choices.

GripFactory shows how to identify risk areas, how to shift from reactive to preventive, and how to ensure lasting safety with the right approach.
