Vinyl Safety Flooring For Birkenhead Fire Station

The Oakwill team were excited to fit safety flooring for the Birkenhead fire station as well as Forbo Teviot Capet tiles for the office.

The safety flooring was the Polysafe 2000 PUR vinyl in the colour Shadow. This type of flooring was perfect for Birkenhead fire station as it is easy to clean and is durable.

Types of safety flooring:

• Homogenous vinyl flooring is created as a single layer of vinyl, meaning it is the same component from the top of the sheet to the bottom, which allows for depth of colour and high durability.

• Heterogeneous flooring is comprised of multiple layers of material, offering endless possibilities for design.

  
  Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority was established on 1st April 1986 by the Local Government Act 1985, the Birkenhead fire station  a part of this authority. Polysafe flooring is the perfect type of flooring for a fire station.

• Slip resistance: this type of flooring has great slip resistance, making it suitable for wet areas or slippery conditions, meeting standards for slip resistance, providing a secure flooring.

• Safety standard: Polysafe 2000 PUR vinyl flooring is designed to meet many safety standards. Many standards evaluate the slip resistance, fire resistance, and other safety aspects of the flooring, ensuring its suitability for commercial environments.

• Maintenance: this type of flooring is easy to clean and maintain. Regular sweeping along with damp mopping, can keep the floor in good condition. The PUR reinforcement layer helps to protect the surface and maintain its appearance. But, leaving grit and dirt on the floor can lead to scratches, so it is important to look after the flooring.

• Durability: vinyl flooring can last from 10-20 years, the material is able to withstand heavy foot traffic making it perfect for the venues we have fitted.
