Stunningly bold and colourful floral and geometric inlaid floor motifs are brought to vivid life throughout the new children's unit at the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital.

Stunningly bold and colourful floral and geometric inlaid floor motifs are brought to vivid life throughout the new children's unit at the Gloucestershire Royal Hospital Featuring a range of eye-catching shades from the Polyflor Mystique PUR range of low maintenance heavy duty sheet vinyls, the designs are the work of Falmouth-based artist and arts lecturer Sue Kinley

They are a key part of the Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust's "Leading the Way" arts strategy - a three-year programme of art commissions and arts projects aimed at enhancing the hospital environment.

The finished designs were created via the Polyflor Expressions Design Service, which uses computerised water jet cutting techniques to reproduce design concepts in precise shapes and style, and the flooring was installed by Teesside-based K and C Flooring.

Non-directionally patterned Polyflor Mystique PUR is available in 24 modern colourways and features a high quality polyurethane reinforcement which, combined with a superior closed surface finish, facilitates a low cost, polish-free maintenance regime for the lifetime of the floorcovering, providing savings of up to 48% compared with untreated vinyl floorcoverings.

Polyflor Mystique PUR meets the general performance requirements of EN 649 and, fully tested to fire safety standard EN 13501-1, is certified as Class Bfl-S1, achieving the criteria EN ISO 9239-1 8kw/m2 and the mandatory requirement of EN ISO 11925-2 pass.

The flooring also features homogeneous monolayer construction for even wear and 100% useful life.

In common with all Polyflor sheet vinyls, Polyflor Mystique PUR can be welded at the seams and to coved skirtings to create continuous impervious surfaces which offer no sanctuary to dirt and bacteria.
