Caters for kitchens
October 1st 2007 Polysafe Ultima, an extra
tough sheet vinyl safety
flooring from Polyflor has
been installed in the kitchen
at Wrightington Hospital in
Wigan.
Specially developed for
areas of heavy traffic where
enhanced slip resistance is
paramount, Polysafe Ultima
meets HSE guidelines by
achieving a sustainable =40
slip resistance (RRL
Pendulum wet test – Four-
S/Slider 96 rubber). It also
achieves a surface roughness
reading of Rz = 70µm,
recommended to cope with
spills of olive oil, cooking stock and similar high
viscosity contaminants in
food preparation areas and
kitchens.
The product, installed by
St Helens-based CMC
Flooring – has been
independently tested and
results demonstrate that it
inhibits the growth of MRSA.
An effective cleaning regime
is, however, the most
important defence against
infection.
The product conforms to
EN13845, the European Norm
for safety flooring. More articles from Polyflor Ltd: |
