Award-winning safety floor manufacturer Altro has introduced a new flooring range to the Australian market, Altro Maxis Suprema, specifically designed for areas where looks are as important as safety, such as corridors, general circulation areas, front of house in restaurants and cafés and reception areas.
According to Robert McLachlan, CEO of Altro APAC, the new Suprema range addresses the key requirements of modern commercial usage.

“In these competitive days safety is not the only consideration. Our customers told us they wanted to combine the high level of slip resistance, ease of maintenance and longevity they had previously experienced with Altro’s safety flooring systems with stylish looks.” “Suprema is the classic Cinderella story. We’ve brought the hard-working Altro safety flooring out of the kitchen, where its abilities were important, but its wider potential was not achieved. We’ve now given it a new sophisticated designer look and the opportunity to showcase its range of talents to a wider audience,” he says.

Altro’s new flooring has a different design feel, with a choice of 12 subtle and deep shades, without the tell-tale ‘sparkle’ usually associated with safety flooring. Its unique transparent finish gives an impression of depth to the flooring surface, which enhances the aesthetic effect.

“But it’s certainly not just a pretty face. Suprema continues to offer the exceptionally high cleanability and colour retention achieved by the industry’s best performing safety flooring range, Altro Maxis. By reducing the amount of cleaning required, because of its better stain resistance and lower dirt retention, Altro Maxis Suprema can significantly lower maintenance costs over its life-cycle,” said Mr McLachlan.
