Ease of Maintenance

The needs for healthcare are ever-changing. EVS touches every surface, and in turn, they impact the patient experience. Ease of maintenance and durability are key. Flooring solutions need to support today’s design drivers – adaptable, durable and reduce the associated person-hours to maintain. Health systems are doing more with less, the floor can have an actionable impact on the total cost of ownership.

Making Informed Decisions

  • Easy maintenance is key - no time to retrain EVS team with constant turnover
  • Surface material must sustain the rigors of EPA cleaning and CDC sanitizing protocols
  • Taking a room out of service for cleaning means lost revenue
  • No-polish mitigates the risk of slips, trips and falls – a non-reimbursable event
  • Enhanced stain resistance to aggressive staining agents
