We manufacture and supply a range of meteorological sensors and display modules for professional use worldwide.

Air Quality

Our range of air samplers provide an accurate method of determining particulate mass concentration. They are used widely in the nuclear, chemical, construction and agricultural industries.

Skid & Slip Resistance

The Munro Stanley Portable Skid Resistance Tester is an internationally recognised, precision-built instrument used to assess the slip/skid resistance of pedestrian surfaces and roads.

Material Testing

Munro Instruments are now suppliers of numerous Material Testing instruments.

Laboratory Instrument

MRC Labs are the highly skilled designers, inventors and manufacturers of a vast range of laboratory equipment.

Anaerobic Workstations

The AW-Series of MUNRO’s range of anaerobic workstations. It is ideal for the laboratory where oxygen free conditions are required for the growth and identification of bacteria. Its small bench size makes the AW200SG ideal for the individual research project.

Laboratory Glove Box

A laboratory glove box is a sealed container that is used to conduct experiments in a controlled environment.

Munro's Slip Resistance Testing Service

Since 1864 Munro Instruments has been manufacturing specialist equipment to measure, monitor and record the environment around us. Our equipment includes slip resistance, environmental monitoring, metrology and laboratory items, and is manufactured at our premises in Harlow, UK, and shipped worldwide.

Munro’s Floor Testing Service is used in public places, hotels, restaurants, stadiums, airports and more.

Munro’s dedicated slip testing service arm covers:

On-site slip testing and slip risk assessment.
In-house slip testing for certification of flooring products.
Expert witness services for slip and fall personal injury cases.
Pendulum service, calibration and consumables.
Pendulum Operator Training.

Key Services Offered:
On-Site Slip Testing and Risk Assessment: Utilizing the Pendulum Test, Munro evaluates the friction of flooring materials under real-world conditions, including dry, wet, and contaminated surfaces. This method is portable and models the mechanics of a pedestrian’s foot during a slip incident.
In-House Slip Testing for Product Certification: Munro provides certification services for flooring products, ensuring they meet safety standards before installation.
Expert Witness Services: In cases of slip and fall personal injury claims, Munro offers expert testimony backed by detailed, scientific analysis.
Pendulum Service, Calibration, and Consumables: They supply and maintain Pendulum Testers, including calibration services and necessary consumables, to ensure accurate and reliable testing.
Pendulum Operator Training: Munro provides training for individuals and organizations to competently operate Pendulum Testers, promoting consistent and accurate slip resistance assessments.

The Pendulum Test is a slip test that measures the friction of a flooring material. The machine works by essentially modelling the mechanics of a real pedestrian’s foot in a real slipping situation. Key strengths of the method are that it is portable and can be used in the conditions that real slip accidents happen. Using Pendulum slip testing we can measure slip potential of both dry, wet and contaminated flooring. This slip test is the UK HSE and UKSRG preferred in-situ slip test method and as such is the only method to prove to authorities, insurance companies and lawyers that you have provided a safe floor environment.
