Healthcare and Hospital Flooring Solutions

Flooring that supports Safety, Hygiene, and Healing

Healthcare environments demand flooring that is not only durable and easy to clean, but also compliant with Australian health and safety guidelines. From busy hospital corridors to dental surgeries and aged care facilities, each space requires a carefully considered solution.

Considerations for healthcare flooring:

Slip resistant finishes that meet Australian slip resistance standards (AS 4586) and fire safety under NCC 2022 fire hazard properties
Low maintenance surfaces that reduce lifecycle costs
Low VOC to support healthier indoor air quality
Complies with the Australian Health Facility Guidelines (AusHFG)
Warm, calming designs to create less clinical, more supportive spaces
