Hospital Flooring

Are you looking for hospital flooring that can withstand heavy traffic and meet hygiene, cleanliness and accessibility requirements?

Properly selecting concrete flooring for a hospital or healthcare centre helps provide an environment conducive to patient healing. We understand the different stressors to which hospital floors are subjected. A surface that allows users to easily move between units and is suitable for wheels (chairs, tables, carts, etc.) is of vital importance.

Our Recommendations

For hospital flooring, we recommend epoxy, polyurea (polyaspartic polyurea) or urethane concrete. These coatings are ideal because of their:

• Resistance to shocks and heavy traffic
• Resistance to chemicals, corrosives and bodily fluids
• Easy maintenance
• Durability and sealant properties
• Easy installation and set-up
• Safe non-slip properties facilitating the use of canes and crutches
• Ability to absorb footfall noise (ensuring a certain level of comfort)
• Wide variety of colours and patterns (customizable)

In addition to providing good value for money, a concrete floor coating made of epoxy, polyurea or urethane concrete is smooth, hard and seamless. It is therefore easy to clean and prevents the proliferation of microbes, bacteria and germs. These types of waterproof coatings are non-porous, so they do not retain moisture or dust.

Polyurea flake flooring has rock-solid durability and its superior technology is the most advanced coating system available.

Possible Applications

Whether for a hospital, healthcare centre, doctor’s office, or daycare, epoxy, polyurea and urethane concrete floor coatings are ideal for:

• Reception areas
• Hallways
• Patient rooms
• Treatment rooms
• Waiting rooms
• Staff areas
• Cafeterias

For waiting rooms, you can create a warm atmosphere by choosing linoleum, a flexible coating that imitates various other textures such as wood.

Epoxy, polyurea and urethane concrete are materials that do not contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs). They can therefore be used without cause for concern in this type of environment. There is no health risk.
