Helps ward off slip-ups
August 1st 2008 Polysafe Wood FX decorative
sheet vinyl safety flooring,
introduced by Polyflor, has
been used to bring safety
and good looks to St Mary's
Ward at St Anthony's
Hospital in North Cheam.
The decorative appeal of
the flooring is matched by
its slip-resistant performance.
In common with all Polysafe
ranges, Polysafe Wood FX
complies fully with HSE
guidelines, providing
sustained slip resistance
throughout the guaranteed
life of the product. The
range achieves 36+ on the
RRL Pendulum wet test
(Slider 96/Four S rubber)
with a surface roughness of
20 microns and above to
ensure a low slip risk
classification is achieved.
Polyflor says the product
has been independently
tested and that results
demonstrate that it inhibits
the growth of MRSA on the
flooring.
However, the company
points out that an effective
cleaning regime is the most
important defence against
infection. More articles from Polyflor Ltd: |
