Holistic Healing Environments
Flooring provides critical support for the environments where we heal. 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.
Evidence-Based Design
Evidence attests to the fact that the physical environment impacts patient stress, staff effectiveness, and quality of care provided in hospitals and other healthcare settings. The calming power of a soft surface, a clean resilient floor, nature based patterns, tempered acoustics, or the soothing interplay of light and shadow are all essential elements we consider when designing our products.
