Latham Australia Pty Ltd has had independent testing carried out by a NATA accredited laboratory in Accordance with AS 4586-2013 Slip resistance classification of new pedestrian surface materials – Appendix A.

Notes:
- While slider 96 or slider 55 rubbers may be used, the test report shall specify the rubber that was used.
- It is expected that these surfaces will have greater slip resistance when dry.
- SDV may be calculated by using the tables that are given in Appendix F, and the minimum SRV that is considered appropriate for a level surface (see examples given in Appendix F).
(Adapted from AS 4586-2013 Table 2)
