Bathroom & Wet Area Flooring for Aged Care Facilities

Why flooring matters in Bathrooms & Wet Areas

Bathrooms and wet areas present the highest slip risk in aged care settings. Safety and hygiene are non-negotiable. Forbo’s Step safety vinyl flooring offers proven slip resistance, even in barefoot or soapy conditions.

For aged care facilities, including en suites, the Australian slip rating guide is P3 or higher / Class B.
Suitable product: Forbo Surestep Laguna paired Onyx+ wall vinyl, heat welded for a seamless, hygienic wetroom solution.
