“
The flooring is still completely unmarked and clean, which means it is
proving to be both a good-looking and hard-wearing choice. I would
recommend this Altro flooring to anyone.
Rail Operator,
Northern Rail, UK
“
I would recommend Altro for its quality and durability of
products and its customer service. You’re always available.
“
As a sustainable operator it is important to Northern that our
suppliers, and the products they provide, work to the same
principles. Altro demonstrated this by providing us with floor
covering made from material that can be recycled.
Fleet Engineer,
Abellio, UK
“
“
I have worked with Altro before and always been very impressed with the quality,
performance and ease of maintenance. When it came to selecting safety flooring for this
new and refurbished fleet, we had no hesitation in specifying Altro.

“
Altro floor coverings proved to be the lightest and strongest of all the
compounds we tested. It also met specific toxicity standards required within
the public transport market. The products’ ability to resist heavy traffic loads,
vandalism and graffiti make it the ideal choice in applications of this nature.

Safety
Safety matters. It’s at the heart of everything we do. We invented safety flooring back in 1947 and
we’re still passionate about it. We love pioneering different safety flooring solutions with sustained
slip resistance for the lifetime of the product. In wet and dry, in shoes, boots, slippers, trainers or
barefoot, we’ve taken care of it. As long as you’re safe, we’re happy.
We’re dedicated to safety in other ways too, to help make sure that your future really is safer with
Altro. Our hygienic wall cladding systems help keep you safe by making it difficult for bacteria to
hide. Our resins help keep the champions of industry safe. We’re a family run business that’s been
going strong since 1919, making sure your investment in Altro is safe too.
It’s our mission to keep your slip risk level to
one in a million

Safety
Why safety?
Not all safety flooring is as safe as Altro’s. Some floorings have only a thin slip-resistant coating or
emboss, which can easily wear away. Some floorings only provide slip resistance in dry conditions.
Sustained slip resistance in both wet and dry conditions is critical to combat the nearly 37.5 million
reported major injuries from falls worldwide each year. Our unique, patented safety flooring construction
incorporates slip-resistant particles throughout the wear layer. And this forms a durable surface that’s
slip-resistant in both wet and dry for the lifetime of the product.
Because we take safety so seriously, we develop Altro safety flooring to exceed current regulatory
requirements and provide sustained slip resistance for life.
Our safety flooring doesn’t just protect the people who use it, it also protects those responsible for the
health and safety of their employees and visitors.
37.5
424,000

Slips, trips and falls are the most
common cause of injury in the
workplace. Nearly 37.5 million
falls worldwide require medical
attention each year.
Each year an estimated 424,000
people die from falls globally.
Falls are the second leading cause
of accidental or unintentional
deaths from injury worldwide.

Safety
Testing and measuring
At Altro, we go above and beyond what’s legally required, to deliver safety flooring you can count on for
its entire lifetime. We don’t just meet existing test standards, we’re raising the bar and pioneering new,
rigorous testing protocols.
We believe that the best way to measure slip resistance is using the Pendulum Test, which is preferred
by the Health and Safety Executive. It has several advantages over the Ramp Test, the biggest being
that it can be used to measure in situ floor coverings – making it the only method that tests sustained
slip resistance. And, Ramp Tests are carried out on pre-installed ex-factory materials and don’t measure
slip resistance after a few months when a floor’s coating may have worn off.
We’ve gone even further than this, investing in additional tests to prove that our products consistently
deliver to the highest standards. We insist on testing a product when it’s already installed – the only
way to accurately measure its true performance. It’s a pioneering approach that gives you complete
peace of mind.
Pendulum
Test
European test
EN 13845
Ramp Test
(DIN 51130)
(BS7976) measures the
slipperiness of a wet floor. The
Pendulum Test gives a Pendulum
Test Value (PTV). ≥36 denotes
low slip potential.
This counts particles after wear to
give a measure of sustained slip
resistance. 50,000+ cycles
are awarded top classification
34 / 43, classed as ‘very heavy
commercial / heavy industrial’.
This measures the angle at
which a pedestrian slips on
an oil-covered ramp.
Altro safety flooring exceeds the
≥36 rating indicating the lowest
potential for a slip.

Why Altro safety flooring?
Why Altro safety flooring?
Our products are unique. We invented safety flooring and our pioneering spirit guides everything we do.
We’re proud of the string of industry firsts to our name, and we’re the only manufacturer to put sustainability
at the heart of our product design.
We never stop improving. Right now, we’re investing in new technologies to deliver more groundbreaking
products that benefit our clients, their customers and our planet. And quality always comes first; we spend
years perfecting each product before delivering it to market, and we work hard to ensure the highest
standards at every level.
We test vigorously and we’re even championing more rigorous testing and greater transparency across our
industry – so everyone benefits.
The traditional and new generation manufacturing methods we use both have one thing in common –
the slip-resistant particles in our safety flooring are found throughout the entire wear layer, providing
sustained slip resistance for the lifetime of the product.

Hygiene
Hygiene
Hygiene is about the total environment, from floor to ceiling. It’s about how we create our products:
the technologies we use and the properties of our ranges.
We have designed a fully integrated system to make cleaning and maintenance easier for you. Its
surfaces are watertight and fully sealed around fixtures and fittings, the sort of detailing that bacteria
and micro-organisms just hate, and will help you maintain the strictest levels of hygiene and infection
control. It means that you will enjoy the long-lasting hygiene performance of our products, and is just
one of the ways in which your future is safer with Altro.

hygienic products which won’t let you down

Hygienic systems
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control estimates that over 4 million patients
are affected by around 4.5 million healthcare associated infections in Europe each year. These
infections account for 37,000 attributable deaths. That’s why we care so much about hygiene.
That’s why we’re so passionate about developing a hygienic system that keeps on delivering in the
most demanding environments.
We were the first company to innovate a complete system of compatible wall cladding and flooring.
As the system is fully integrated, it fits together perfectly to provide a hygienic, watertight covering.
No gaps or rough edges, just a smooth, uninterrupted surface – even around plug sockets, light
switches and corners. As well as offering the best possible protection against bacteria and vermin,
this makes cleaning easy too.

Joints and junctions are key to

offer smooth and secure joining
methods that prevent the ingress

Altro products are non-porous and
non-shedding, so nothing can get
in or out. And because they have
high impact resistance, damage
that can trap bacteria is unlikely.

Maintaining safety and hygiene
Our flooring, hygienic wall cladding and doorsets are developed to support the cleanest of environments.
They perform exceptionally well, and will carry on doing so for the lifetime of the installation.
Altro wall cladding and flooring are so popular because they’re safe, hygienic and durable. And to make
sure they stay that way, it’s important to clean them for the lifetime of their installation, something
we’ve made as easy as possible. Altro products are often used in environments where high standards of
cleanliness are very important, but hard to maintain due to constant use.

Altro safety flooring and hygienic

Sustainability
Sustainability
Sustainability drives the choices we make. It starts with the raw materials we choose to go into our products:
environmentally-friendly raw materials that enable us to produce phthalate-free vinyl flooring containing
bio-plasticisers. Our commitment to sustainability made us the first manufacturer to recycle traditional safety
flooring in-house and led to us being first to market 100% recyclable and reusable safety flooring postinstallation, which took the flooring industry by storm.
Our Steps to Sustainability programme is our holistic approach to managing sustainability issues. It represents
just some of the ways in which we strive to make your future - and the environment - safer with Altro.

Taking responsibility
We recognise that sustainability is about being both environmentally and socially responsible, while
also taking economic impact into account. So, as well as pioneering new recycling processes to reduce
waste, we’re also engaging with our local community through apprenticeships, and school and university
visits. And as well as operating a zero-waste-to-landfill policy for our PVC products, we’re proud to have
our manufacturing base in the UK, creating national employment opportunities and supporting our local
economy as well. We’re fully committed to honouring our environmental and social responsibilities, while
continuing to provide long term, sustainable and safe flooring and wall cladding solutions too.

Resource efficiency
At our manufacturing base, we’re committed to using resources efficiently and are actively reducing
waste, energy and water consumption, and implementing closed-loop recycling processes. We’ve
operated a zero-PVC-waste-to-landfill policy since 2014 by investing in, and installing, the world’s
first safety flooring recycling system. Altro are one of two founder members of Recofloor™, the
industry’s vinyl take-back scheme which collects vinyl off cuts and diverts them from landfill.
Since the launch of the scheme in 2009, Recofloor has diverted over 2,500 tonnes of waste vinyl
flooring from landfill. We also set up Recowall™, the UK’s first wall cladding recycling scheme.

Health and social care
The most demanding environments need hygiene and safety with long-lasting resilience. Altro integrated
flooring and wall cladding offer just that, and more; they’re attractive too and will retain their looks for life. So
once you’ve created a beautiful, calming interior for your patients, residents and staff, you know they’ll enjoy it
for years to come.
Our products are sustainable and can easily cope with the demands of heavy pedestrian and wheeled traffic.
And for more specialist applications, we’ve developed specific solutions with industry experts that can help
enhance well-being.
Food and drink
Food and drink preparation and production areas can spell danger with grease, fat, cooking oil, flour, baking
powder, food particles and the occasional chopped carrot ending up on the floors and walls. Yet everyone
from the canning manager on the night shift to the four-year-old sitting down to lunch needs to be safe. Altro’s
sustainable flooring and wall cladding systems provide long-lasting safe and hygienic surfaces for wet, dusty
and greasy conditions. And they can be combined to create visually striking eating areas, functional factories or
practical and comfortable serveries.

As the needs of your learners evolve with time, your needs will too, and so too will the ways we can help you.

Doors are forever on the move, taking a lot of abuse. So you need a hard-working solution, to

tear is more of an issue, Altro Fortis doorsets will keep you protected.
Panels
Where you may not need a whole, fully clad doorset, you can choose partial protection; helping
prevent scuff and impact damage. Protect the most vulnerable parts of your door with panels,
including pushplates and kickplates. You can either order a sheet and cut it to suit your needs, or
leave all the hard work to us and we’ll cut it to size for you.

Altro Transflor
Durability and slip resistance
We know that durability is paramount when it comes to flooring
for transport. Once welded, our system becomes water-resistant
too, protecting subfloors from water ingress and damage.
Altro Transflor safety flooring offers sustained slip resistance in
both wet and dry conditions. In terms of durability, products
retain their slip resistance owing to the incorporation of slipresistant minerals thoughout the thickness of the wear layer.
All our products achieve a minimum Pendulum Test
Value (PTV) of ≥ 36, ASTM D2047 ≥ 0.6, BAM and DIN
51130 R10 slip resistance rating making them ideally
suited to the heavy footfall and sometimes wet conditions
experienced in public transport.
Altro Transflor products stand the test of time, so your
investment is safer with Altro.
Customised design
From working closely with you, we have
developed a successful product range. To
complement our existing range we also have
the in-house capability to create bespoke
designs for some of our most popular
products.
We will work closely with you to define
your requirements; matching your specific
branding and passenger experience.
• We have in-house graphic design
expertise to create new designs relevant
to your brand and business needs
• Once you are happy with the design we
can manufacture samples so you can be
fully satisfied as to how the product looks
• Your Altro consultant will work with you
to meet your delivery schedules
Minimum project volumes usually apply
for this service. Just speak to your Altro
consultant for the full conditions of use.
We can also manufacture and supply logos,
welcome mats and signage and wayfinding
to fit your business needs.

Rail flooring | Altro Transflor Momentum
Altro Transflor Momentum™
Typical applications:
Commuter trains. Intercity trains. Metros. High-speed trains.
Airport transit shuttles. Trams. Stations.
Developed to keep your passengers safe, this product meets EN 45545 for fire, smoke and
toxicity (class HL2) and has all the properties you’d expect from an Altro Transflor safety
floor such as sustained slip resistance and excellent durability. It can also be hot-welded,
ensuring the system is impervious, reducing the risks of water corrosion.
The range of 12 plain and chipped colours (available in 2mm or 2.5mm thicknesses) lets
you both match standard corporate liveries and provide design contrast with vibrant, accent
colours. Bespoke colours and designs are also available on request.
Our research and development team has worked hard to design a product that is robust yet
flexible enough to fit into small or awkward spaces. Our secret is a lightweight formulation
with added silicon carbide for long-term durability and a fleece backing which aids bonding
for a welded impervious system. It is also phthalate-free.
Products available in kit and roll format.
Please call to discuss your bespoke options,
such as custom-made colours or made-toorder lengths and widths. Conditions apply.
Please note: the 2.5mm version is available
from stock, the 2mm is available to order.

Bus flooring | Altro Transflor Chroma
Altro Transflor Chroma™
Typical applications:
City bus. Minibus. Emergency vehicles. Airport buses.
This is for the city slicker buses. The kind of buses that roam the streets,
taking a daily pounding from urban commuters.
‘Robust’ is the word we’d use to describe this highly resilient flooring.
Available in three thicknesses (1.8mm / 2.2mm / 2.7mm) it is free from
phthalates, contains bio-plasticiser and is manufactured from silicon carbide
and aluminium oxide grains for enhanced slip resistance.
Just because it is robust doesn’t mean it looks all utilitarian and bland.
You’ve got 18 colours to choose from, with coloured multi-chips added to
give a bit of zest and harmonise with your livery or branding. We even offer
a bespoke colour service (conditions apply) and a pre-cut service to match
your specific requirements.
Civic
If it’s gloomy and mucky outside our flooring embraces it with open arms,
thanks to its amazing dirt-hiding properties and Altro Easyclean Technology
for improved cleanliness.
Please call to discuss your bespoke options,
such as custom-made colours or made-toorder lengths and widths. Conditions apply.

Bus flooring | Altro Transflor Meta
Altro Transflor Meta™
Typical applications:
City bus. Minibus. Emergency vehicles. Airport buses.
Altro Transflor Meta™ is engineered in three thicknesses (1.8mm / 2.2mm / 2.7mm)
making it a highly resilient, functional flooring to meet your installation requirements.
Silicon carbide and aluminium oxide grains for slip-resistance are included in the
construction and dimensional stability is increased by including scrim in the middle.
It also benefits from Altro Easyclean Technology for improved cleanliness, reduced dirt
pick-up and enhanced colour retention.
This safety flooring has been designed with your passengers’ comfort in mind. We’ve
opted for subdued deep tones to create calm interiors and have twelve colours in the
range to suit your mood.
This range includes three safety colour options, designed to increase passenger
awareness and safety in areas such as on stairs and with stair nosings.
Please call to discuss your bespoke options,
such as custom-made colours or made-toorder lengths and widths. Conditions apply.
Looks great with:
• Altro Transflor Figura
• Altro Transflor Wood
For an unobtrusive appearance,
colour matched Weldrods (WR) and
Mastics (A1M) are available. You’ll
find their product codes under the
relevant swatches.

Bus flooring | Altro Transflor Wood
Altro Transflor Wood™
Typical applications:
Executive coaches. High-end vehicles. Premier bus routes.
When you think of wood, what do you see? Does it conjure up an image of
ancient trees rising high in a forest, the smell of pine or the feeling of cold
hands from collecting logs on a crisp morning? Nature is truly beautiful.
So it’s no wonder that the beauty of wood is sought-after to create modern,
upmarket designs in homes and in the transport industry.
Inspired by nature, using the tones of cherry, maple and oak we’ve
created a stylish wood-look safety flooring range for the executive coach
and bus market.
Our palette of 13 shades, with its sparkle-free finish, enables you to vary
the mood from cool and contemporary to relaxing and comforting.
The designs combine well with modern interiors, including monotone and
sophisticated colour schemes, while also co-ordinating with more vibrant
designs to avoid any colour clashes.

• Altro Transflor Meta

Fleet Engineer,
Virgin Trains, UK
“
We are very pleased with the floor. It has not only given a real uplift
to the look of the on board shop, but I know from the point of view of
“
passenger safety that slip resistance and compliance come as standard.
At Virgin, we know that the floor will have to withstand heavy wear and
tear, that’s why we chose a bespoke Altro Transflor MET 25 product.
It will look good for years to come and is easy to clean.

We have had good experiences working with Altro in the past. On
this occasion, we wanted to improve energy efficiency and, with the
lightweight design of this flooring system, Altro supported our goal.

Not only this but Altro Transflor Momentum can be welded watertight,
helping to ensure that the underbody is protected. This is particularly
relevant in terms of the lifespan of the trains, helping us to give
