MAKEOVER
STANDARD VERSION The standard version of Altro Flexiflow combines flexibility and toughness and is available in 2mm thickness. It is ideal for medium- duty industrial premises with rolling loads, for example corridors, workshops, production areas and mezzanine decks.
Other suitable applications include pharmaceutical sites, mortuaries and clean rooms, craft design and technology areas, circulations areas, atria, high traffic display areas, exhibition halls, museums, markets and heavy commercial areas.
COMFORT VERSION The Altro Flexiflow comfort version also offers robustness and flexibility, but with added comfort underfoot. Available in 2mm thickness, this product is great to walk and stand on and is perfect where people are on their feet all day. Applications include light production areas and laboratories, mental health seclusion rooms and low stimulus rooms, aged care facilities, retail, museums, galleries, atria and operating theatres.
ACOUSTIC VERSION Altro Flexiflow flooring also has an acoustic option – which was installed at the Vale Resort – available in 6mm thickness. This has good noise reduction properties and an enhanced level of comfort underfoot, reducing the fatigue caused by long periods of standing on hard floors in areas such as music rooms, libraries, school classrooms and assembly rooms.
The old tile flooring outside the cryotherapy chamber was very uncomfortable underfoot, and it became a priority to raise comfort levels here because temperatures inside can get as low as -160o

priming, day two we installed the acoustic base layer, day three was the comfort layer, followed by two coats of Altro Flexiflow top coat. It took two of us four days.”
INSTALLATION TWO: THE STRETCHING GYM Following on from the success of the first installation, Alan requested a further 40m2
of Altro Flexiflow, this
time in the stretching gym in the high- altitude training area, which is used to help players prepare for games in places like South Africa. He said: “It’s essential any flooring meets the needs of the players. I liked the matt finish of the flooring and how it provided a cushioned feel underfoot. I was also really impressed that Altro worked with us to colour match our team colour.”
Gareth commented: “The new Altro flooring is already making a huge difference in terms of comfort, warmth and overall wellbeing for players. The old tile flooring outside the cryotherapy chamber was very uncomfortable, and it became a priority to raise comfort levels here because temperatures within the cryotherapy chamber can get as low as -160o
C – so ensuring players are warm
and comfortable as they dress and undress was key.
“The feedback about the flooring has been very good. The colour is great too, perfectly matching the team red. We have some very high-tech equipment here to help us train and develop the best possible players, and having high- tech flooring is a very important part of that process.
“Gary and his team from GR & RG Finishers have done a great job for us over the years. They have also created some fantastic graphics of the WRU feathers logo in the reception and outside the cryotherapy chambers using different coloured Altro flooring. It all looks superb.”
