Non-Slip Flooring for Caravan Park Amenity Blocks by Rhino Linings

Those in the caravan and camping scene know it's not just families holidaying in caravan parks and camping grounds around Australia. Statistics show the biggest Caravan Park visitor increase has come about via the Grey Nomads, those baby boomers who are actively mobile and spending their kid's inheritance, who are travelling quite comfortably around Australia in caravans and motor homes. This growth has been happening since the year 2000 and continues at a rate of 6% annually.

As the travelling population ages, there are a number of issues caravan park owners and managers need to look at in an effort to continually attract this growing market. Added to that, it is a well-known fact this large group of travellers are also passionate communicators and very willing to sing the praises of caravan parks and the grounds they have visited and or experienced.

As a result of this change in visitor demographic, a large number of caravan park managers and owners are continually upgrading and improving the standard of their park facilities to attract these mature nomadic travellers and offering a more enjoyable and satisfying camping experience.

Caravan Park amenities blocks are one area in particular receiving focused attention. Besides making these facilities more attractive and user friendly, thought has to go into the most appropriate flooring as well. Floor coverings can range from tiles to bare concrete, and most importantly comprise of a slip resistant finish.

With a majority of park amenities blocks and common areas being concrete and tile (which can be aging and need replacing), Park owners are now considering decorative floor coatings such as Rhino ArmaFloor®. It is good to note that Rhino ArmaFloor® 500DF, with added quartz chips, meet the Australian Standard AS/NZS 4586 with its slip resistant characteristics. The finish is seamless, waterproof, low maintenance and easy to clean - a hugely attractive advantage for caravan park cleaners.

The natural combination of coloured quartz chips and Rhino ArmaFloor® 500DF, a polyaspartic decorative seamless flooring system, is successfully being used in a large number of residential and commercial premises for its slip resistant qualities. This is particularly important for caravan park owners and managers when thinking of a suitable flooring application in amenities blocks, particularly in shower recesses, laundries and common areas where a slip resistant finish is required for safety.

Admittedly in high traffic areas the slip resistant surface does slowly wear, but not completely, over time. Years later, a polyaspartic floor can be quickly and inexpensively resurfaced with a new coating in just one day.

With a one day turnaround, Rhino ArmaFloor® coating systems are in high demand by discerning customers throughout Australia that are looking for a concrete floor coating that is low maintenance, easy to clean and will stay looking fresh and beautiful for years to come.

Caravan Parks play an important role in the Grey Nomad travelling experience, upgrading park facilities and providing attractive, clean and safe amenities and common areas will keep them coming back year after year, as well as friends and acquaintances they meet on the road. Word of mouth, it's a powerful marketing tool!
