Yeoman Shield highlighting dementia-friendly wards
W
all & Door Protection Specialists, Yeoman Shield recently collaborated with a Yorkshire hospital to provide Door Protection for a ward refurbishment that would be in line with the dementia-friendly environment brief.
The work required the doors along the ward corridor to be protected using different coloured Yeoman Shield Protection Panels which had to be compatible with a pre-accepted pallete of shades found to be conducive to wayfinding benefits for people with dementia. Yeoman Shield was able to meet the colour brief drawing from their wide range of 58+ colours available in the protection panel range.
The Door Protection panels were installed, along with matching door frame protection, by Yeoman Shield’s directly employed fixing operatives, in Royal Blue, Aubergine, Raspberry Red, Tangerine, Lilac, Yellow, and Pastel Green shades, providing an attractive, protective, and hygienic surface finish.

Doors_HPAdv.indd 1 Tatami Tiles
Inspired by ancient Japanese fl oor mats, Tatami is the 3D cork wall tile from Granorte. Available in Midnight, Natural and Light, Tatami is a 3D wall tile made from 90% recycled natural cork. Created by family- owned Portuguese cork innovator, Granorte, the wall tile brings a unique texture that’s close to nature. Ideal for creating a cosy and comfortable feeling that has a connection to a Japanese aesthetic, the wall tile is suitable for commercial environments such as hotels and offi ces. The cork used for Tatami is sourced from the post-industrial waste of wine stopper production. Originally harvested from the bark of cork trees within protected forests, the material is natural and renewable. Ground up and turned into Tatami tiles, it’s a material with unique properties. Thermally effi cient with good acoustics, as well as resilient, cork is an excellent choice for interiors looking towards sustainability as a key criterion. Each Tatami tile is fi nished with CORKGUARD® features Microban®
, Granorte’s water-based fi nish that adds a protective layer for easy cleaning, and which to inhibit the growth of bacteria.
