Practically stylish in every way

Independent research conducted by Tarkett reinforces the notion that the selection of colour palettes in certain spaces within a school are conducive for creating effective learning environments.

Tarkett UK have been experiencing growth in their Safetred Ion and Aqua collections as contractors are drawn to the stylish colour pallets combined with EN 13845 sustainable slip resistance rating - making it ideal for educational settings.

With over 30 colours to choose from and available in two designs - Contrast with decorative flakes and Linen with a woven style, the colourways offered have been well received by head teachers.

Phthalate free with extremely low VOCs contributing to better interior air quality, colour palettes are not the only benefit of the Ion and Aqua collections. Available in loose lay and acoustic options, additional benefits include the Safety Clean XP PUR reinforced surface for improved stain resistance and ease of maintenance.

Offering a full design solution for wet and dry rooms, Safetred Ion and Aqua can be co-ordinated with Protectwall and Aquarelle, making it suitable for all spaces within an educational institution such as common areas, classrooms and collective showers.  

The Aqua range, which allows for bare foot comfort, also has sustainable R10 slip resistance for superb performance in wet areas and improved flexibility for ease of installation.

To help prevent slips, schools want safety flooring, but are keen to adopt a style that is more homely to aid a child’s development. Tarkett’s Safetred Ion and Aqua collections address this demand, without passing on increased costs to contractors.
