Altro Cooks Up Safe Solution For Hospital Kitchen

Altro recently helped with a comprehensive refurbishment of the main kitchen at Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital in Gobowen. The busy kitchen produces hundreds of meals a day for patients and visitors, so it is essential that catering staff work in a safe and clean environment.

Altro Stronghold K30™ was chosen for the main kitchen and wash up area in Surf, an attractive blue colour scheme. Altro Designer 25™ in Twilight was used for general circulation areas within the rest of the back-of-house facilities including preparation areas, storage space, offices and a staff room.

The Altro Stronghold K30 range was recently updated with 12 new colours, both modern and classic, to offer an increased level of choice within the most demanding of environments for specifiers, designers, contractors and end users. With a 12 year warranty, unparalleled technical support, an unrivalled track record and a host of glowing customer references, any specifier, contractor or end user choosing Altro Stronghold is assured of receiving all of the high quality service for which Altro is renowned.

"All Altro's products are incredibly easy to work with, which meant we were able to tackle this complex project, including substantial subfloor preparation and installation of 14 new drains, in under two weeks. The staff at the hospital were extremely impressed we finished the job within the contract time, and the finished result looks superb. Altro Stronghold K30 is perfectly suited to a professional kitchen environment, as it provides excellent slip resistance even when greasy, wet or dusty – debris commonly found in this sort of environment during service. It is also incredibly hardwearing, withstanding constant footfall and the use of heavy food trolleys. Altro Designer 25 is ideal flooring for the less intensively used areas, with superb slip resistance and Altro's Easyclean Technology which makes cleaning much simpler. Both flooring products incorporate bacteriostats which prevent bacteria from breeding, which is also a major consideration in a professional catering environment."
