Laya Healthcare have been creating new healthcare and wellbeing clinics in Ireland. The brief was to design environments that cater to the diverse needs of all users, including those with neurodiversity, creating a comfortable, welcoming and efficient healthcare experience. Spaces also needed to support staff wellbeing, be beautiful, functional, balancing clinical operational needs with a desired patient experience.
Design of the spaces included patient facing areas, nurses’ station, X-Ray waiting area and MRI suite, stairwells, toilets and shower rooms, and operating theatre prep and recovery rooms. Staff changing rooms, showers and toilets also needed to be installed with flooring for comfort and slip resistance.
To also meet the sustainability criteria, and keep the project to tight completion timescales, speed of installation was critical.
Altro adhesive-free floors helped to meet the build schedules. Altro Cantata adhesive-free in colour Crème Caramel was specified for communal areas. Altro Cantata adhesive-free features Altro’s most advanced cleaning technology ensuring ease of maintenance and enhanced infection control together with impact sound reduction of 14dB.
Altro Wood adhesive-free in colour Champagne Oak was specified for offering high levels of comfort underfoot providing a safe, durable and biophilic solution for the busy circulation and waiting areas.
For the showers, changing rooms and toilets, where the risk of a slip was higher, Altro Pisces in colour Cuttlefish was specified affording lifetime sustained slip resistance and a soft-look shade.
Altro Cantata adhesive-free enhanced cleanability makes it ideal for busy public spaces where disruption needs to be minimal and it has no associated adhesive odours. It features our award-winning adhesive-free installation method for same day weld and walk, easy end of life removal, re-use or recycling.
