Is your wet room flooring working hard enough?
Safety flooring in wet room environments is crucial for public and social housing to prevent slips and falls, particularly for vulnerable residents like the elderly or those with mobility issues. It also helps to minimise water damage and maintain hygiene. By choosing slip-resistant, waterproof, and durable flooring, PROCare can help you to create safer, more comfortable, and accessible inclusive spaces for all.

There is also the added benefit of reduced call backs, whilst minimising inconvenience for residents and reduced costs and time for ongoing maintenance and refurbishment. At PROCare, we’re not here to only tick boxes. We’re here to change lives by making spaces safer, smarter, and easier to live in for all.

Tarasafe H₂O from Gerflor, is a fit for purpose slip resistant safety vinyl solution that meets the stringent demands of any hardworking space where there is a continuously wet area.
So, what is it Terasafe Wet Room Flooring?

PROCare is proud to recommend Tarasafe H₂O safety floorcoverings for its proven performance in public and social housing interiors. We’ve seen it hold up in busy adapted bathrooms minimising slip risk. It ticks all the boxes for occupational therapists who require a reliable product that’s consistently safe but still comfortable for residents for barefoot use. It also makes life easier for housing teams and contractors, as it is hardwearing, durable, easy to transport, cut, cove and install, and keeps its aesthetic appearance for many years to come.
Why it works for real-world homes
In social housing, your flooring doesn’t get an easy ride. With high foot traffic, budget pressures and the need to reduce operational expenditures for cleaning and maintenance regimes … Tarasafe can handle it all! The 2mm construction and reinforced backing ensures that it won’t crack, curl, or look tired even after many years of use. We also know how important hygiene is too, especially in shared or adapted bathrooms. The unique SparClean finish is ideal for easy cleaning, and delivers unrivalled levels of stain resistance and it stays that way. Mould? Not a chance.
And because it’s got no grit in the backing, it cuts and fits like a dream. Installers get fewer joins, fewer headaches, and a perfect watertight finish.
From a housing perspective, it’s a no-brainer. Less maintenance, contemporary colour options, fewer complaints, and a solid warranty to back it up.
And for us at PROCare, it’s a product that reflects how we work: clear-headed, practical, and people focused. We work with leading suppliers like Gerflor who share our world class standards and processes, and it shows in the end result.
“We work closely and in collaboration with PROCare because they share our values and ethics. They're passionate about quality, focused on the end-user in mind, and they care about doing things right each and every time. That makes them a trusted partner for the housing sector.”
