Refurbishing a busy commercial kitchen - Edgewater Lake Wanaka

Edgewater Lake Wanaka is a hotel, conference and wedding venue on the shores of the beautiful Lake Wanaka in Wanaka New Zealand. When it came time to refurbish and expand their busy commercial kitchen, they needed a flooring solution that was durable, easy to clean, attractive and safe. Altro Stronghold™ 30 / K30 came highly recommended by their commercial kitchen appliance provider as the best safety flooring solution to meet their requirements.

Water underfoot is treacherous enough – add grease, oils and fats, and you’ve got a dangerous environment. So, for commercial kitchens, canteens, food preparation and hospitality service areas, it’s essential to select flooring that will help catering staff do their job safely.

Altro Stronghold™ 30 / K30 achieves Altro’s highest rating for slip resistance (TRRL≥55, R12) and is designed to minimise risk in wet and greasy conditions for the lifetime of the flooring. As well as helping to keep staff safe from slips, it also reduces their fatigue, thanks to its 3mm thickness that provides noise reduction and comfort underfoot.

“Our busy commercial kitchen needed a complete overhaul. The existing flooring had lost its non-slip properties and had become slippery. We were using rubber mats to assist with slip resistance, but these were proving to be a trip hazard. We needed to remove the existing flooring and replace it with a long-lasting, easy to clean and safe new flooring. Through a strong recommendation from our kitchen appliance supplier, we chose Altro’s Stronghold 30 / K30 R12 Safety Flooring in the colour Dolphin for our new kitchen. The result has been fantastic. The 3mm thickness of Stronghold K30 is not only proving to be extremely durable but it is much more comfortable and less fatiguing on our staff who are working on it all day. It is also proving to be extremely easy to clean and the lifetime slip resistance guarantee provides me with the assurance that my staff and suppliers will remain safe at all times. For these reasons, I would strongly recommend that other hospitality venues consider Stronghold K30 as their commercial kitchen floors.” - Jonathon Brown, General Manager Edgewater - Lake Wanaka
