ALTRO RESINLTRORESIN breaks newground on North Herts College newcampus
ALT A
ltro resin flooring is providing the ultimate in colour, flexibility and durability on an award- winning, £10 million refurbished campus at North Hertfordshire College, in Hitchin.
Associate Clark Barton explains how Altro resins played a part in his vision: “The new
campus is open plan, bright, colourful, modern yet functional, and it was vital that the flooring should reflect and complement this.We specified Altro resins for the college hub because these products offer the range of colours and textures to enable us to be innovative and flexible in our design. In addition, it was imperative that the flooring was high performance and practical, and Altro’s credentials offer this. “The entire proj
oject was very much a
collaborative effort,” added Clark. “We worked closely with Altro, the main contractor, the college, and also the students, who were instrumental in choosing colours and themes.” Brian Sapsed, Head of Estates & Facilities for the college, commented: “This was a design-led project, and the Altro flooring has certainly made all the difference in helping us to achieve a modern and visually-appealing new campus. “Everyone entering the building notices the Altro Flexiflow flooring. It makes a strong first impression because it’s so striking.We are so pleased that Altro was able to exactly match the colour the students wanted. But it isn’t just good to look at, it’s also very practical and hard wearing.
“The upper floor of the hub, where the Altro MultiScreed flooring is fitted, probably sees the most traffic, as that’s where students congregate.
But two years after it was fitted it looks just like new, so it really is a tough product.
“Everyone - from students and staff to
visitors - has been very impressed with the new campus and we have achieved exactly the look we wanted. Altro products have played a vital part in this.”
