Puzzle, Allura Click and Allura Colour Plus, and

QUANTUM FLOORING
The specification of dementia-
friendly flooring transition profiles
has become an integral part of
interior design in care homes. Light
Reflectance Values (LRVs) of
flooring materials measure the
colour contrast differences between
different products. Junctions and
adjacent floorcoverings in
dementia-friendly environments
should have an LRV difference of
between 0-10 at most. Quantum
has developed a new uPVC
transition profile which comes in a
choice of 14 different calming
colours. These give specifiers and
flooring contractors the option to
select suitable transition profiles
between floorcovering joints and
achieve very low LRV differences at
the same time.

JUNCKERS
Nearly 1,500 sq m of Junckers solid
Nordic Beech Classic flooring has
been fitted as part of Aberdeen
Music Hall’s restoration – that
includes inside the 1,300 seat
auditorium. Nordic Beech’s
white-pigmented finish offers a
bright backdrop to the interior and
reflects the abundance of new
architectural lighting. By specifying
the same floor for much of the
building, the various spaces are
seamlessly connected. At 140mm
wide, Junckers’ signature wide
board, long-length floorboards
really come into their own in the
open spaces and circulation routes,
offering a clean and elegant look.
Solid beech is amongst the most
hard-wearing timbers used for
flooring and Junckers’ pre-finished
floors are well known for their
durability. junckers.co.uk
