Slippery, damaged and hazardous ceramic tiles in wet floor areas can prove to be difficult and expensive to repair, but these issues are eliminated with TactTiles’ retro-fit floor tiles. Not only do they offer a cost effective solution, but their Swedish design gives classic Scandinavian good looks to any pool or spa area.
Safety and durability of a wet floor surface is vitally important for pool and spa operators. Around swimming pools, in changing areas and throughout wet spa facilities, the floor needs to be anti-bacterial to maintain a high standard of foot health. Traditional tiles floors can be affected by puddles which aggravate the slipperiness, especially in bare feet. Allowing drainage through a raised floor surface reduces this risk and increases reassurance.
TactTiles innovative range from Swedish manufacturer Bergo Flooring, are constructed from injection moulded polypropylene; their interlocking nature means they simply click together to create a raised floor surface. Being water permeable, these slip-resistant tiles provide comfortable grip underfoot, while at the same time ensuring excellent drainage capability. They are available in a range of finishes and colours to revitalise with contemporary style, and because there are no requirements to use adhesive due to their loose-lay nature, they can be installed quickly and efficiently; minimizing financial impact and disruption to operations and providing a cost effective solution to pool refurbishment projects.
Many hotels are discovering the benefits of upgrading their spa facilities with the TactTiles wet flooring solution range; chains such as Brend Hotels, Best Western and Corus continue to improve their properties throughout the UK.
Modular systems using materials such as polypropylene offer great diversity and benefits as well as proving to be a popular choice and alternative to more traditional surfaces. They negate the need for full blown floor refurbishments and bring greater efficiency, both financially and operationally. As the sole UK distributor, TactTiles also supply and install a variety of additional modular surface products such as multi-use sport courts, as well as terrace and balcony surfacing and remains a passionate advocate for modular flooring innovation in the UK.
