Holistic Healing Environments

Flooring provides critical support for the environments where we heal in Australia. At Shaw Contract, we aim to make a Smarter Impact by advancing our understanding of all that contributes to healing – from colour to acoustics, infection control to glare reduction.


How Can Flooring Improve Patient Outcomes in Australia?

In Healthcare, flooring provides critical support and performance for a wide range of specialised environments, from the operating room to the waiting room. Shaw Contract serves the segment as a committed partner, with unrivalled expertise and a dedicated portfolio of solution-driven products.

Responsible manufacturing begins with our product development process that considers the well-being of patients and staff in healthcare environments. For the comfort and wellbeing of patients, we use the principles of biophilic design to develop products that have a positive impact on people.
