Polyflor flooring has been specified and installed at two Sheffield healthcare facilities. Sheffield Central Clinic is benefitting from Polysafe Wood FX Acoustix PUR in Rustic Oak and Pearlazzo PUR in Lilac Bloom, and Mint Crisp installed throughout, while Sheffield Children’s Hospital has installed Polysafe Modena PUR in the Aventurine shade in its Accident and Emergency Ward, and chosen Forest FX Acoustix PUR for waiting rooms.
David Garrett, senior project manager at The Children’s Hospital, said: “It is vital that our hospital remains welcoming and comfortable for our visitors, while also remaining safe and secure. We chose Polysafe Modena PUR for its high aesthetic appeal, but also for its sustainable slip-resistant properties and full HSE compliance. Modena does not look like a traditional safety floor, but we were assured by the product’s status as a Polysafe range. Being a very busy facility with lots of footfall, we needed to ensure that our floor would stand up to a lot of traffic, and provide underfoot safety, while being easy to clean.” Polysafe Modena PUR fully meets the requirements of EN 13845, the European standard for safety flooring, and achieves a BRE Global Generic A+ environmental rating in major use areas such as healthcare and education. It is also suitable for recycling through the Recofloor Vinyl take-back scheme.
