The Les Ormes
holiday resort in the St Brelade area of Jersey in the Channel Islands has
converted its soccer dome into an activity centre called ‘Jump Jersey’.
This new facility
now boasts a trampoline park, climbing walls, a ninja warrior course and
multi-age soft play structures.
It’s
an extremely impressive project which saw international flooring specialist
Gerflor supply 1250m2 of their innovative GTI Max interlocking technical tile solution which was used throughout the activity centre as well as the café
and reception areas.
Gerflor has a wide
range of innovative products that assist with enabling new and facilities to
open as soon as possible, or for premises being refurbished to continue to
remain open whilst the work is being completed. For those quick refurbishment
projects and new builds Gerflor’s fast track GTI Max is the ideal solution.
This hugely
prestigious Channel Island contract would fall into the capable hands of local
installer Flawless Flooring KD Blandin Ltd. Director Eddie Do Nascimento said:
“Being in the business for over 26 years we specialise in large commercial
projects with a knowledgeable team that are willing to overcome any challenging
projects.
"The
installation at Jump Jersey had to be completed very quickly with the choice of
flooring delivering both performance and durability. The GTI Max product from
Gerflor did just that.”
Steve Le Galle,
General Manager at Les Ormes said: “The Gerflor GTI Max flooring was the best
solution for our needs. It’s an extremely outstanding versatile product where
the actual fit and finish doesn’t look like tiles at all.”
GTI Max tiles
provide a speedy and durable renovation option for high and heavy traffic areas
and can be installed over existing floor coverings with minimal subfloor
preparation, no adhesives and most importantly no need to close the facility
with no loss of revenue. In addition to this, if areas do become damaged the
tiles can be easily replaced with minimum disruption to end customers.
The GTI Max vinyl
tile range is the ultimate flooring solution and is extremely hardwearing, easy
to install and perfect for a host of activity centres like Jump Jersey where
time is money and the ability to lay down a suitable floor quickly with the minimum
of fuss is paramount.
Steve Le Galle went
on to say: “We have in fact specified Gerflor flooring before in our Lodge site
and we were absolutely delighted with the final look and finish.”
GTI Max has a host
of performance features that make it the ideal choice for this heavy footfall
environment. It’s 2mm thick pure colour wear-layer contains densely pressed
chips to hide scratches and oblong fillers for outstanding wear resistance.
This is re-enforced with 2 glass fibre grids between a 4mm thick, 100% recycled
backing and interlayer for excellent dimensional stability (including rolling
loads).
GTI Max is 100%
recyclable and made with up to 80% recycled content. It comes with the
polyurethane surface treatment PUR+ for ease of maintenance and specifiers and
designers can also benefit from mixing and matching colours to create corners
and walkways using its modular tile format in 23 stunning colour choices.
GTI Max is 100%
REACH compliant, Floorscore certified, free of formaldehyde, free of heavy
metals and solvents and manufactured in an ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certified
site. It delivers TVOC emissions 10 times better than normal requirements (TVOC
