Patient Room Flooring

Medical centers, hospitals and healthcare facilities have designated rooms where patients reside to prepare before treatement and recuperate afterward. Spaces designed for patients should foster a sanitary and hygienic environment that promotes healing and meets strict cleanliness standards. Installation of flooring systems that are easy to clean, resistant to chemicals, slip-resistant and durable is essential, while options with sound dampening and ergonomic benefits can also contribute to patient well being. Since hospitals are busy spaces, patient room flooring must be capable of withstanding high traffic and the movement of heavy  equipment while simultaneously offering antimicrobial features that support patient, visitor and employee safety. Additionally, patient room flooring should be built to last and offer protection to the concrete substrate over the long term.

Durable and Chemical Resistant Patient Room Flooring

The flooring of patient rooms is subjected to heavy wear and tear from constant foot traffic, medical equipment, wheeled carts or beds and chemical spills. When patients are transported from room to room or when medical equipment is dragged across the floor, the surfaces can get damaged, creating an unsafe environment. Sherwin-Williams patient room flooring solutions are extremely durable. Our floor systems are designed to withstand the weight of heavy equipment as well as protect the concrete from  scratches, gouges, scrapes and stains.

Patient room flooring can also be exposed to cleaning and sanitizing agents, medical preparations and harsh chemicals. These substances can cause traditional commercial flooring to crack or break down, creating an entryway for pathogens to seep into and contaminate the slab matrix. In addition, damaged flooring can result in an uneven surface — a potential trip hazard. Depending on system, our patient room flooring solutions are impervious and resistant to many chemicals and solvents, preventing typical cleaning solutions and other hazardous substances from contaminating or damaging damaging floor.
