Altro Serenade is an acoustic floor, which means 19dB impact sound reduction, keeping noise down, not only within the room but in the room below. A 3.9mm thickness gives staff comfort underfoot, plus ensures it’s warm and comfy for little bottoms. Available in multiple shades with block colour and linen-look options, it creates a comfortable, warm, welcoming look that can match, or complement, a design theme. As you would expect from an Altro floor, it’s easy to clean, both for quick mop-ups after activities, or for the thorough clean after school. Plus its durability is guaranteed for ten years.
Floors – area around sink
With a wide variety of activities taking place in the classroom, a sink is a common feature, making splashes and spills and therefore slips, likely. With so much going on, it’s not always possible for teaching staff to spot or wipe spills straight away. So, what’s the alternative when you don’t need a safety floor throughout the entire room?
Installing Altro Suprema around the sink area means you can reduce the risk of a slip to one in a million in that space. With 40 shades to choose from, it’s easier to match the rest of the floor, or deliberately contrast with it to remind pupils that it’s an area they need to be careful in. In case of large splashes, we recommend having a mat to wipe feet on when stepping back into the rest of the room. When it comes to specifying a smooth or safety floor, we recommend referring to your risk assessment.
