Sustainable design with Forbo’s Nuway

Nuway, the market leading rigid entrance flooring system from Forbo Flooring Systems, has been enhanced to provide specifiers with even more choice.  

Along with the reliable high performance characteristics that Nuway is known for, the collection now boasts a more design-orientated approach as well as sustainable options.  

Janet Lowe, Market Manager at Forbo Flooring Systems comments: “By simplifying the specification process of Nuway - as part of an overall flooring scheme - we hope to open up more options for commercial and retail end users to create an entrance system that suits the specific needs of an entrance and the varied traffic.”

The original and popular Nuway Tuftiguard Classic and Design collections now benefit from two new scraper bar options.  The Black Anodized option provides a very contemporary matt black aesthetic, compared to standard aluminium bars. The design features fully black bars, apart from a stylish strip along the tip where the finish has been removed to reveal a thin, contrasting streak of aluminium.

Designed in response to the demand for a natural, sustainable rigid entrance product, Bamboo – a sustainable species of grass and the fastest growing plant in the world - is an extremely robust and reliable option that sits perfectly with interior wood finishes and other floor coverings. Its environmentally friendly nature coupled with its warm wood aesthetics, provides specifiers with a truly unique entrance flooring option.   

Both of these scraper options offer a key benefit to public buildings - they do not create a strobe effect in bright entrances, which helps to achieve compliance with the Equality Act.   

In addition, the Nuway Grid and Connect single sided systems, will feature a new rubber Ultragrip insert.  Suitable for a variety of indoor and outdoor environments, end users can have peace of mind that Ultragrip gives increased slip resistance and sure footing in multi-directional entrances, helping to protect people entering and exiting in a building.  

Janet continues: “As well as protecting people from slipping, entrance flooring systems have a crucial role to play in maintaining the appearance and performance of any interior flooring installations from dirt ingress.  There isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ solution and so we have made sure that our collection offers the right options for every application - without ever compromising on the unbeatable performance our customers have come to expect from the Nuway products.”
