Nelson Place wanted to enhance its Student Facilities with a range of comprehensive high performance flooring solutions from Gerflor.
Central to the success of the project was the specification of 2,600m² of flooring products supplied by international interiors specialists, Gerflor. The flooring solutions included PowerShock 300 rubber tiles and GTI Max Technical Tiles for the gym areas, Tarasafe Impression slip resistant safety flooring in the main reception and walkway, Tarasafe Ultra and Tarasafe Ultra H²O slip resistant safety vinyl flooring for the changing rooms and WC’s, alongside their world renowned Olympic pedigree Taraflex® sports flooring for the main sports hall. These products were chosen for their world class durability, safety, and superior performance in high-traffic environments.
The sports hall at Nelson Place featuring Gerflor’s Taraflex® sports indoor vinyl flooring, is known for its use in Olympic and other international and national sporting and leisure venues. It was carefully selected for its outstanding shock absorption properties and high slip resistance performance. It was also specified because of its outstanding safety, comfort and performance for both the casual users and competitive athletes that utilise the facilities, making it a standout and natural choice for this multipurpose recreational space.
Gerflor’s PowerShock 300 rubber tile flooring, installed in the gym, delivers exceptional impact resistance and acoustic performance, making it ideal for heavy-duty fitness environments. Complementing this was the GTI Max collection, used across the key training areas for its exceptional durability and resistance to wear in high-traffic locations. These combined robust solutions aligned perfectly with the facility’s demanding requirements for long-term performance and ease of maintenance.
In the wet and dry areas, such as the changing rooms and WC’s, the Tarasafe Ultra H²O and Tarasafe Ultra vinyl safety flooring was installed as it offered key users exceptional slip resistance, whilst also meeting HSE guidelines for these critical areas. In the reception and walkway areas, Tarasafe Impression safety vinyl was installed, carefully selected for its striking design and outstanding slip resistance.
