SelecTech, Inc., a leader in the manufacture of innovative flooring products from recycled materials, recently installed 6,000 square feet of its FreeStyle Biolock flooring at the Fresenius Medical Center in Ashland, Kentucky. The new flooring was installed on the ground floor of the Center’s dialysis center.

“Medical facilities like Fresenius are treating patients with serious medical conditions. Simply put, they do not have the luxury of down time while installing or replacing flooring,” said Thomas Ricciardelli, president of SelecTech. “Our flooring employs a patented interlocking technology that virtually eliminates the need for adhesives. You don’t even need to remove the existing floor or move machinery or furniture for extended periods of time. Essentially, we can undertake a job like the one at Fresenius with zero down time.”

FreeStyle BioLock tiles are made from 70 percent recycled materials and are 100 percent recyclable. Other BioLock features include: Enhanced ergonomics and sound reduction; meets CA 1350 indoor air quality protocol; third-party IAQ certification by MAS Certified Green; and more. FreeStyle BioLock flooring comes with a 10-year commercial wear warranty.

“For an organization like Fresenius, they have people coming in for dialysis treatments practically 24/7. Down time not only prevents somebody from receiving the care they need but costs our organization money. It really isn’t an option,” said Ricciardelli. “We came in and installed the new floor right over the old floor with zero down time. SelecTech’s interlocking tiles might cost more than other types of flooring but it enables our clients to make their money back in multiples on the install by not having any down time.”
