Gerflor launch new Flooring for Education brochure
Range for education includes products to suit all areas, from classrooms and toilets to corridors and sports halls; and every sector from pre-school through to university.
With over 200 students using the centre in the day and other groups visiting in the evening, Gerflor products helped create floors which will stand the test of time.
A bold geometric cut design using Taralay Uni to help reduce impact noise was used in the student recreation area in tonal blues, whilst Taraflex Sport M+ in a wood finish was used in the fitness room.
The sports hall was finished to stunning effect in a combination of blue for the playing area and wood effect for the run off space.
Specialist line marking was added to complete the job.
