Austin Health, Victoria

Austin Health's brand new mental health facility has been thoughtfully designed to support wellbeing, dignity and long‑term performance. The building features a beautiful, spacious layout with light‑filled communal areas, large windows and doors, and seamless access to a calming green outdoor space, creating an environment that feels open, welcoming and restorative for patients, staff and visitors alike.

Altro safety floors and wall protection sheets were chosen for all wet areas throughout the facility. They were selected for their hygiene, durability, cleanability and ease of maintenance.

For this project, Altro Tegulis was specified for the first time, providing the aesthetic appeal of tiles while eliminating common drawbacks such as grout lines, cracking and ongoing maintenance. The result is a contemporary tile‑look finish that supports both design intent and practical performance in high‑use wet areas.

Altro’s wet area flooring, Aquarius, was paired with Altro Tegulis and Altro Whiterock Satins to create a cohesive, high‑quality finish throughout bathrooms and wet zones. Working with a single, trusted supplier also streamlined project delivery, ensuring consistency, reliability and ease of installation throughout.

To further enhance durability in high‑traffic areas, Altro Fortis door protection systems were installed. Altro Fortis is built for durability and long-term performance, helping future-proof the facility by reducing wear and tear in busy healthcare environments.

The result is a modern, resilient healthcare environment that balances aesthetics, functionality and long‑term value, supporting Austin Health’s commitment to quality care and thoughtful design.
