sustainable choice, compared to other options for ooring. However, as in all industries, tiling companies have a big ob ahead of them to enable the sector to play its part in meeting the overnment’s net ero carbon target.
Another technical service offered is slip resistance testing of tiles. This is a very important area with obvious health
and safety implications where tiles are used in bathrooms and wetrooms. The TTA service, which is provided for manufacturers and distributors, uses the pendulum test method, as favoured by the HSE. For anyone who has concerns about tiling work, we offer a technical inspection service. Under the terms of
the service, an experienced technical inspector can visit a site to inspect the workmanship of any tiling installation. The inspector will assess the workmanship against relevant ritish and European Standards and provide a detailed written report of the inspection with their fi ndings and a conclusion. This report can be used in court as evidence, should any dispute go to that level.
