Why care homes use this

Care home corridors receive heavy wheeled traffic from mobility aids, cleaning trolleys and laundry carts, and are frequently wet. HSE slip prevention guidance requires R11 rated flooring in areas with frequent wet contamination. Altro Walkway 20 exceeds the R10 minimum and provides the additional safety margin required in high-traffic care home corridors.

Key specification

R11 slip resistance (DIN 51130); 2 mm homogeneous PVC; welded seams; suitable for underfloor heating; Class 1 fire to BS EN 13501-1; conductive or anti-static option available.
