Below, you&#8217;ll find everything you need to know about suitable flooring solutions for healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safe flooring solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At HIM, we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/safety-at-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">prioritize your safety<\/a>. This commitment is evident in our healthcare flooring, which focuses on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Reducing the risk of falls.<\/strong> Floors can become slippery, especially when wet, increasing the risk of falls. This is particularly dangerous for individuals with pre-existing injuries. By adding a layer of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/comply-with-health-and-safety-regulations-with-safe-non-slip-floors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anti-slip powder to the floor coatings<\/a>, we achieve the desired roughness to minimize the risk of slipping.<\/li><li><strong>Safely discharging static energy.<\/strong> The buildup of electrostatic charge, often caused by movement, can be hazardous in certain situations. For example, in operating rooms where ventilators are used or in spaces housing individuals with pacemakers. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/floors\/esd-floor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) floors<\/a> offer a solution in these cases. These floors neutralize electrical pulses, preventing damage to equipment and harm to people. When combined with an antistatic coating, personal charging is also prevented.<\/li><li><strong>Preventing contamination.<\/strong> Hygiene is of utmost importance, especially for vulnerable individuals. Easy-to-clean floors and walls are essential. HIM floors are applied seamlessly, preventing dirt from accumulating in cracks and crevices. The floors are also liquid-tight, making them easy to clean. For an additional hygienic feature, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/floors\/trowel-floor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trowel floor<\/a> can be used to create a coved skirting that seamlessly connects the floor to the wall, a solution often applied in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/trowel-floors-and-sanitary-rooms-a-good-match\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sanitary areas<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">User-friendly flooring solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ease of use is also a key consideration in our flooring solutions, including features such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Providing optimal freedom of movement.<\/strong> Whether people walk on them or move across them with walkers and wheelchairs, floors must offer enough stability and grip to allow for free movement. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/floors\/pu-floor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Polyurethane floors<\/a>, in particular, are well-suited for this purpose due to their slight cushioning effect.<\/li><li><strong>Marking walkways.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/marking-and-lining-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lines or markings<\/a> can be added to our floors to indicate walkways, improving flow, especially in hospitals and other large healthcare facilities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose HIM healthcare floors?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>HIM has been delivering craftsmanship since 1932.<\/li><li>Our floors are extensively tested in our laboratory.<\/li><li>We offer flooring for every healthcare and living need.<\/li><li>Our flooring solutions are durable and long-lasting.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want to know more?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, HIM is dedicated to providing safe and responsible flooring.
