Modern dentist's office

Elastic, deformable and low-emission floor covering with pleasant walking comfort under light mechanical load.

Assignment and requirements

Besides good cleanability and protection against yellowing due to sunlight, low-emission certification is equally important when chosing a suitable floor for medical practices. A permanently clean and bright flooring contributes to a modern, hygienic overall image. Especially with frequent cleaning cycles or aggressive detergents, the coating must not lose its appearance and technical properties.

Particularities and challenges

A consistent, visually high-attractive floor impression should run through all rooms of the dental practice, seamlessly connecting all areas, from the waiting over to the treatment rooms. Above all, the hygiene of the design floor, its low soiling tendency and protection against staining play a decisive role in the daily routine of the doctor’s office. When using a light-stable and coloured top sealer, the floor covering can remain brilliant white, and does not change its colour even when exposed to solar light.

The solution

In this area of application, System G3 KLB INDUSTRIAL LOW-VOC PU Comfort Sealed offers the possibility of combining elasticity and resistance to light mechanical stress in one system. The combination of different products creates a visually appealing and modern look in a fresh colour tone. Due to its elastic force, the coating provides a pleasant walkability to employees and, thanks to the easy-to-clean top sealer, the surface stays neat and hygienic – and this despite high patient traffic.

The low-VOC floor covering is certified according to “Indoor Air Comfort Gold” which makes it predestined for recreation rooms. The system products used are approved for sustainable building according to DGNB, LEED and Minergie ECO and thus create a low-polluant, healthy indoor climate.
