Polyflor flooring products were recently installed within the refurbishment of St. Gerard’s Educational Resource Centre (ERC) in Belfast. Over 4000m2


of Polyflor


products were laid by Flooring Solutions (NI) Ltd including Polysafe Vogue Ultra PUR to the kitchen, dining hall and washroom facilities, and Classic Mystique PUR to the stairs and circulation areas. The five-month refurbishment project saw Flooring Solutions taking advantage of the Recofloor scheme from conception to completion. Part-founded by Polyflor, the Recofloor scheme diverts vinyl flooring waste from landfill and allows the uplifted flooring and off-cuts to be recycled into new products, including flooring. Ideally suited to the demands of high traffic school environments, Classic Mystique PUR demonstrates outstanding durability and abrasion resistance, benefitting from the incorporation of Polyflor’s renowned PUR maintenance enhancement. 0161 767 1111 | info@polyflor.com | www.polyflor.com
