An easy-to-clean floor supplied and installed by Ryebrook Resins is a key feature of the new mortuary at Milton Keynes General Hospital.
Laid seamlessly with a coved skirting and slip-resistant finish, the Ryeflor HF resin system reportedly eradicates the risk of bacteria becoming lodged in hard-toclean corners. It is also “a resilient solution providing exceptional abrasion and impact protection and resistance from chemical damage” – an important consideration here. The resin flooring can be laid directly onto new concrete, and does not require additional surface damp-proof membranes. Ryeflor HF is also inherently impervious, making it suitable for steam cleaning. A heavy duty option, it is “an extremely durable” polyurethane-based floor system with a mottled aggregate surface which, in this new mortuary installation, has a light green background colour “for co-ordinated aesthetics”.
