Restaurants & Bars Flooring Solutions

Why flooring matters in restaurants & bars

In hospitality, flooring does more than cover the ground it sets the tone for the guest experience while meeting strict safety and hygiene standards.

From busy kitchens and bars to elegant dining rooms, flooring must be durable, easy to maintain, slip-resistant, and stylish. Forbo’s portfolio offers solutions tailored for every hospitality space.

Considerations for restaurant & bar flooring

• Slip resistance & safety – Especially critical in kitchens, bars, and entrances where spills are common and must comply with Australian standard AS 4586. Want to learn about what slip ratings are recommended for each area? Read our Australian standards for slip resistance blog


• Durability – floors must withstand heavy foot traffic, moving furniture, and constant cleaning.


• Acoustic control – noise reduction enhances guest comfort in dining and lounge areas


• Hygiene & maintenance – surfaces should resist stains, be easy to clean, and maintain appearance long term.
