Providing Evidence of Suitability Resilient Flooring Finishes
Every flooring specification carries safety, comfort or compliance risk: a resident with dementia, a building surveyor, a Green Star assessor. This CPD teaches you how to read fire and acoustic NCC test documentation, apply LRV for dementia-friendly design, and use EPDs for climate disclosure reporting.
