Project description

Sustainable flooring design at the ‘Haus Benjamin’ nursery in Heusweiler

The construction of the new ‘Haus Benjamin’ nursery in Heusweiler has created a modern educational and childcare facility that offers children a bright, safe and inspiring place to play and learn. The project forms part of a forward-looking intergenerational concept developed by the Sisters’ Association: situated right next to the ‘Haus Antonius’ care home for the elderly, the nursery promotes interaction between young and old through shared communal areas and creates space for a vibrant sense of community.

Sustainability, functionality and durability were key considerations in the choice of materials. For the flooring, the sustainable polyurethane flooring PURLINE was selected. A total of around 1,130 m² of wineo 1500 was installed. This comprised 963 m² of the ‘Royal Chestnut Desert’ design in the ‘wood XL’ format, as well as around 165 m² of ‘Apple Green’ in roll format. A particular design feature is the staircase finished in Apple Green, which blends harmoniously into the colour scheme whilst adding a fresh design accent.

PURLINE – the ideal flooring solution for educational establishments

 

Nurseries place particularly high demands on floor coverings. They must withstand intensive daily use whilst also being easy to maintain, safe and conducive to a healthy indoor environment. PURLINE meets these requirements exceptionally well and offers ideal conditions for use in educational and childcare facilities.

The resilient flooring ensures a comfortable walking experience and feels warm underfoot – a noticeable advantage in rooms where children play, run about and learn. Its robust surface reliably withstands daily wear and tear and is easy to clean. At the same time, the low noise levels contribute to pleasant room acoustics and help create a calm atmosphere for learning and playing.

PURLINE also impresses when it comes to healthy living: this low-emission floor covering creates a healthy indoor climate and is therefore particularly suitable for areas where children spend many hours a day. This is complemented by slip-resistant properties, which offer a high level of safety, particularly on high-traffic areas and stairs.

Natural wood decor meets fresh colour accents

With the Royal Chestnut Desert finish, the wood effect lends a warm, natural feel. The authentic wood look creates a welcoming atmosphere and complements the nursery’s overall cosy design concept.

The Apple Green finish deliberately adds fresh accents. The vibrant shade of green helps with wayfinding, particularly on the stairs, brings colour to the building and emphasises the modern character of the facility.
