'Terrific in Troon' - Gerflor’s Taraflex® and Tarasafe huge hit at Marr College
O
ver 4700m2 of Gerflor high performance sports and safety floorings have been installed at Marr College, Scotland. The
client required an Olympic pedigree sports floor for their main sports hall to serve a multitude of uses – Taraflex® was the chosen innovation. A trusted, high-quality safety flooring was also required to ensure the safety of pupils, staff, and on-site visitors. Tarasafe Ultra was the natural choice. Taraflex® is available in 17 colours and four wood-effect designs
and has been used by the largest international sports federations for decades and has been present at the Summer Olympic Games since 1976. Tarasafe Ultra is a specialist slip-resistant vinyl safety flooring
inlaid with mineral crystals particles, as opposed to carborundum giving a brighter appearance. It also comes with a tough PVC wearlayer and meets HSE guidelines. Steven Lees, Gerflor Area Sales Manager, Scotland said, “Our
Taraflex Evolution sports flooring was the natural choice for the college when it came to their sports hall. The college sports hall is used extensively for a host of different activities. It’s an environment that’s perfect for Taraflex as it delivers outstanding performance and high levels of safety, protection and comfort for pupils and staff.”

Hunter Douglas Architectural – The metal ceiling specialist
S
ince Hunter Douglas developed its first metal ceiling 60 years ago, it has introduced a wide range of styles that can be used in almost all
types of building. Business Development Manager Pieter van Rees says these new
shapes and styles mean there has never been more choice for architects and designers. “Combining different shapes and styles is an excellent way to create
a unique and playful ambience. The buildings that use metal ceilings are very diverse and ever-expanding,” he said. Because acoustics are crucial in a design, the ceilings can be manufactured with micro-perforations and an acoustic non-woven

backing can be added to the panels as these help to absorb the sound energy. Hunter Douglas’s metal ceilings are guaranteed to last for years and
because they are made from recyclable materials, they are also more environmentally friendly. As well as standard colours, all metal ceilings can be finished in RAL
colours, as well as unique metallic hues. Architects and designers can also commission a custom design.
