Flooring warranty increased

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Altro has increased the warranty, sustained slip resistance and life expectancy on its 2.5mm safety flooring ranges after they have proved their resilience and reliability in some of the world’s most testing environments.

Altro Designer 25, Altro Unity 25 and Altro Classic 25 now come with the added peace of mind of a 20 year warranty and 25 year life expectancy and sustained slip resistance. 

Altro’s 2.5mm safety flooring is said to provide an extremely high standard of durability. The extra 25% thickness is also claimed to make it significantly more robust than 2mm safety flooring, with resistance to impact damage, mechanical and physical damage and point loading, as well as enhanced durability for heavy duty areas with intense use. 

Like all Altro safety flooring, the 2.5mm ranges offer sustained slip resistance for the lifetime of the product, keeping the risk of a slip to just 1 in a million. 

The team at Altro Australia revisited a market-leading national chain of retail supermarkets in Doncaster, Victoria to view an Altro 2.5mm safety flooring installation that had been laid in a delicatessen area 35 years ago. It was still performing its slip-resistant and hygiene functions without any visible signs of wear. Altro decided to put it to the test and the official result was 46, qualifying the floor as a Class W or Low Risk of Slippage. This is the same expectations as a new Altro 2.5mm safety floor from this range.
