uantum Flooring Solutions has published a new Healthcare Sector Guide to showcase its products
as hospitals, care homes and dental surgeries. Many Quantum products are ideal for these environments, as they have been designed to adhere to best practice standards in Building Regulations, BS8300-2:2018 and The Equality Act. Colour can be a vital part of flooring
accessories. For staircases, stair nosings should be as clear as possible in order to assist people with visual impairments. Meanwhile, it may be necessary to have flooring transitions which match the floorcoverings very closely to create a dementia friendly environment. Quantum’s wide range of colour choices facilitates these options. Quantum’s capping strips and cove
formers offer the opportunity for safe, easily cleaned joins between resilient floorcoverings and wall junctions. Inside and outside corner floormitres help to create a uniform, well fitted flooring, helping to protect both floorcovering and wall from industrial
cleaningmachines.They are also ideal forwet room application. To find out about these products and
more, please download Quantum Flooring Solutions’ Healthcare Sector Guide, or contact the company.
