Hygiene is the golden rule.

Carpets in a hospital? Unimaginable until a few years ago – today entirely feasible with ANKER-CLINIC, the first carpet to meet all the requirements with regards to hygiene and cleaning. As tests by the Institute for Hygiene and Environmental Medicine at the RWTH Aachen prove, there is even an increase in hygiene standards with ANKER-CLINIC when compared to hard flooring – with the same effort required for care and cleaning.

ANKER-CLINIC can be fully disinfected thanks to the backing that is impervious to liquids and the solution-dyed fibres used. This means the prerequisites for effective cleaning, care and disinfection are met. This carpet has the same resistance to conventional cleaning agents and to bleach and disinfectants as hard flooring, and very high colour fastness – even when exposed to high loads and strong sunlight.

And in contrast to hard flooring, dust is not stirred up, but bound in the carpet until it is next cleaned, as demonstrated in the study published by the German Institute for Allergies and Asthma in 2005. This means pollution caused by fine dust is significantly less in rooms with carpets than in those with hard floors.

There is no doubt that the ANKER-CLINIC carpet creates a homely atmosphere and thus helps to increase the well-being of patients and care staff alike. Less noise pollution thanks to improved sound insulation, a high level of safety thanks to non-slip properties, greater comfort underfoot and heat insulation are the properties that meet with great acceptance from patients, care staff and visitors and help everyone feel a little more at home.
