GO BEYOND SOCIAL HOUSING STANDARDS WITH BEAUFLOR
In social housing projects, ensuring your choice of floor complies with health and safety regulations is an essential part of the specification process. With Beauflor sheet vinyl flooring for social housing, no matter which floor you choose you are guaranteed full health and safety compliance.
Beauflor sheet vinyl floors are made in Belgium to be an affordable option for social housing projects that is fully compliant with all health and safety requirements. Importantly, they can be used to provide a durable, easy-to-maintain, hygienic and slip-resistant surface that helps to provide tenants with a supportive home environment.
With almost four in five tenants moving into their homes with either partial or no floorcoverings and a lack of covering affecting tenants’ physical and mental wellbeing, Beauflor sheet vinyl floors are an affordable way for providers to improve the quality of accommodation.
Chris Roberts, national sales manager at Beauflor, commented: “Without a standard in England that stipulates the provision of floorcoverings throughout social housing, providers are not obliged to supply a floorcovering and are only required to ensure that the floor is not deemed a Category 1 hazard under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System. However, the positive impact of providing floorcoverings should not be underestimated. With Beauflor this provision can be affordable, and our floors are durable enough to stretch between tenancies to bring better long- term value.”
Beauflor sheet vinyl is safe and sure underfoot, thanks to a minimum R10 slip-resistance. Accessibility too can be improved, with a surface that’s smooth enough for the easy and unrestricted passage of wheelchairs and mobility aids. Floors are also easy to maintain and hygienic, with no joints for dirt to build-up and a surface that can be wiped or moped. Tested for impact and airborne sound, they can also help to make accommodation quieter and more comfortable.
These benefits have a positive impact on health and safety within social homes well beyond the standards stipulated by regulations. Of course, Beauflor sheet vinyl is also fully compliant with industry standards for fire safety, indoor air quality and product quality.
Meeting standards and improving the environment for tenants, Beauflor sheet vinyl can help social housing landlords to improve the quality of their provision affordably.
