NEW ALTRO WOOD ADHESIVE FREE SETS A
HIGH STANDARD AT SPECIAL SCHOOL
Brand new Altro Wood adhesive-free
safety flooring has been fitted in Kaimes
Special School, in Edinburgh, setting a
high standard for easy to fit, slip-resistant
and homely surfaces for pupils and sta .
The installation of the new flooring was
part of a wider refurbishment of the school
by the City of Edinburgh Council, and
integral to their drive to reduce sensory
overload in primary and secondary schools by using ‘natural’ neutral colours
and textures.
A spokesperson from the Interiors team at Edinburgh Council, says: “The
biophilic design principles of bringing nature into schools have been proven to
aid learning, promote calm and improve mood among pupils. Using a woode
ect flooring is a great way to create that atmosphere, and this is why we use
Altro Wood adhesive-free— it’s a beautiful, homely and comfortable surface that
also has very high slip resistance. It ticks all the boxes for us.
“Pupils at Kaimes all have complex
emotional needs and creating a calm,
comfortable space is very important.
Reducing sensory overload and harsh
colours is a vital part of this. We know from
using ranges from the Altro Wood collection
in other schools that this surface can very
e ectively change the mood of a space with
its neutral, warm and natural look.”
