Playtime with Polyflor Safety Flooring at Paper Moon Day Nursery

Polyflor’s recently relaunched Polysafe Wood fx PUR vinyl safety flooring was chosen to help create a safe, child-friendly environment at the Paper Moon Day Nursery in Woodbeck, Nottinghamshire.

The grey-toned Silver Oak design from the Polysafe Wood fx PUR collection of sheet vinyl flooring was installed by Clinton Carpets flooring contractors of Retford in the playroom areas of the new nursery. The popular Polysafe Wood fx range now features six new on-trend designs, giving a more contemporary feel to the collection.

Alison Hill from Paper Moon Day Nursery commented, “We chose Polysafe Wood fx as we needed a practical, hard wearing and slip resistant floor covering that also looked attractive to help us create a safe environment that the children will enjoy playing and learning in. The fact that it is easy to clean is also a massive bonus for us in terms of the everyday running of the nursery. This flooring has also been installed in a number of our other Paper Moon nurseries across Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.”

Polysafe Wood fx is a decorative safety floor covering available in twelve authentic wood effect designs with inbuilt sustainable wet slip resistance to reduce the risk of slipping in commercial or residential areas. The vinyl includes virtually invisible aggregates through the performance layer which provide traction and ensure underfoot safety without compromising the high clarity look of the floor. The product is fully HSE Compliant and classified as low slip potential, achieving 36 + on the Pendulum Wet Test and a surface roughness of 20 microns +, fully conforming to the European Safety Flooring Standard EN 13845.

Polysafe Wood fx features a cross-linked and UV cured PUR polyurethane reinforcement which makes it easy to clean and provides optimum appearance levels and reduced life cycle maintenance cost savings. Vinyl flooring has also been found not to contribute to common allergies such as asthma or dust allergies, making it ideal for child friendly spaces.  Polysafe Wood fx PUR is also a Eurofins certified product, achieving an Indoor Air Comfort GOLD rating for low VOC emission levels.

Manufactured in the UK (and available through Polyflor South Africa in SA), Polyflor’s Wood fx flooring contains recycled material and is 100% recyclable via the Recofloor vinyl take back scheme. The sustainability credentials of Polyflor’s flooring are supported with the award of BES 6001 Responsible Sourcing Standard and certificated BRE Global A+ ratings for many ranges.
