Healthcare facilities require flooring systems that meet strict standards for hygiene, durability, safety, and electrostatic control. The hospital in Colombia needed a flooring solution capable of withstanding heavy foot traffic, medical carts, hospital beds, and frequent cleaning while helping protect sensitive medical equipment from electrostatic discharge.
We supplied high-performance homogeneous ESD vinyl flooring designed for demanding healthcare environments. The flooring provides stable conductive or static-dissipative performance, excellent wear resistance, antibacterial properties, and easy maintenance. When installed with conductive adhesive, copper foil, and matching welding rods, it creates a durable and hygienic flooring system.
