one of the highest Noise Reduction Coefficients (NRC)
and Impact Insulation Classifications (IIC) ratings of any
commercial flooring product.
High noise levels worsen patient and staff outcomes.

Heavy hospital equipment such as hospital beds are hard
to push on any surface. Kinetex textile composite flooring
has rolling resistance similar to hard surfaces, and the
same reduced pushing related injury potential as a hard
surface.
Healthcare communities promote movement. Doctors,
nurses and staff are working, walking and standing
throughout the space. Kinetex has greater potential to
absorb energy and reduce repetitive foot stress injuries and
other injuries when compared to hard surface. This also
creates a more comfortable space for staff who stand for
long periods of time. With its thermal insulation properties,
Kinetex also provides a warmer indoor environment.

certified as High-Traction by the National Floor Safety
Institute. Its innovative construction creates one of
the most slip-resistant flooring surfaces ever tested —
wet or dry — to prevent falls before they happen.
