Forbo Flooring Systems’ Eternal project vinyl and Surestep safety vinyl products feature within a £6 millon Neighbourhood Health Centre in Anfield, Liverpool. Considerable community involvement during the Townsend Lane development saw local people put forward their requirements, whilst being kept ‘in the loop’ throughout.

Architects, IBI Taylor Young, worked with the doctors on the design. Forbo’s Eternal Marble and Eternal Wood were specified for corridors, staff rooms, and main patient areas. Forbo’s Eternal range is R10 slip-resistant, while its PUR pearl finish ‘makes the floorcovering easy to clean’. Its ‘lasting performance guarantees that Eternal will stay in prime condition’. Drawing on the natural characteristics of wood and natural material finishes, the selected products feature warm zebrano and light beech wood effects, ‘blended with feather and dove shades of neutral marble-inspired design’. Forbo’s Step safety project vinyl collection was specified for the washroom areas’ safety flooring.
