UKAS-accredited testing across Northern Ireland

We deliver UKAS ISO/IEC 17025-accredited pendulum and surface roughness testing in Derry/Londonderry and across the wider Northern Ireland region under the same accreditation that covers our national operations. Pendulum testing follows BS EN 16165:2021 Annex C (the current UK standard, replacing BS 7976-2 in February 2022) using Slider 55 for barefoot pool environments, with Slider 57 and Slider 96 added for sock and shod transitions where relevant. Reports are typically delivered within five working days of the visit, with urgent attendance available where post-incident or pre-handover deadlines require it.
