For hospitals to run efficiently, there is a team of staff which usually operate from offices within the hospital. Textile products offer excellent acoustic properties and when modular formats are used they can quickly adapt to layout changes.
Office and meeting rooms should provide a comfortable yet inspiring place in which staff can express themselves and share thoughts and ideas with each other. Therefore, comfort and aesthetic capabilities are important to consider when creating an office/meeting room environment.
In these areas, a floor covering needs to have:
• Excellent aesthetics to create environments where staff and visitors feel inspired
• Excellent acoustic properties to reduce and contain the noise where possible
• Great cleanability to cope with the daily demands of the office environment such as spillages, dirt and moisture brought in by foot and wheeled traffic
