Issue
DomusVi Mont Martí focuses on caring for the elderly but also offers support to people with autism or challenging behaviours. The centre required refurbishment to update the facility.
Approach
The centre offers a pleasant stay and a welcoming atmosphere that facilitates wellbeing. The refurbishment project was designed to provide security and help eliminate the psychological impact generated by staying in this type of centre long-term. To meet the needs of the service users of DomusVi Mont Martí materials that help guarantee safety and durability were needed.
Solution
Altro was selected for the refurbishment of the facility. Altro Ensemble modular flooring system was installed for its durability. Altro Fortis Titanium wall protection was used in hallways and rooms to provide protection for areas that see a lot of foot and wheeled traffic. Altro Aquarius was chosen for the bathrooms to provide slip- resistance underfoot.
Francisco Férriz, Head of the installation company of Carpintería Ebanistería Barcelona, S.L., says Altro Fortis Titanium “absorbs shock and is very resistant to scratches. We have been working with Altro for years and the result is always excellent.”
“Altro is really recommendable for its technical features and good value for money,” says Alfonso Vallespí, commercial manager of LMT Soils Técnicos.
"With Altro, the treatment is always cordial and trustworthy, well beyond the expectations of a simple commercial relationship.”
José Luis Sanz, Marula Estudio, architect and design manager
Altro Ensemble is a modular flooring system that that delivers stunning aesthetics. With 15dB sound reduction it provides comfort underfoot, minimal residual indentation and excellent durability.
Altro Fortis Titanium wall protection sheet features a lightly textured surface, which camouflages scuffs, keeping the wall area looking better for longer.
Altro Aquarius achieves a Pendulum Test Value (PTV) of ≥50 (Slider 96) and Class B to DIN 51097 for barefoot use and provides optimum lifetime sustained slip-resistance in its recommended areas of use. Altro Aquarius performs against a range of contaminants typically found in wet environments.
All of them are easy to clean and install.
“The final result has met our expectations. I would recommend Altro without a doubt as it is giving the result we wanted.”
