After extensive study and research, Lees, a Division of Burlington Industries, Inc., has created a collection of five highly-styled coordinating carpets to help simplify the flooring selection for healthcare facilities. The Vital Designs Collection offers small to large scale patterns in 16 sophisticated colors.
Ideal for a range of healthcare environments including assisted living and acute care facilities, hospitals, medical facilities, and progressive living environments, the new collection offers designers and specifiers numerous flooring options with a harmonious look. The multiple colorways allow for coordination with an array of interior finishes, and help distinguish one area of a facility from another.
The Vital Designs Collection includes:
- “Virtue” — a small-scale geometric design with an architectural look
- “Vestal” — a small-scale, textured aesthetic reminiscent of random pebbles
- “Vigor” — a medium-scale pattern resembling an organic leaf design
- “Visionaire” — a sophisticated all-over loop designed to coordinate with and complete the collection
- “Wayfinder II” — a solid, textured product designed for borders or insets, or to provide directional cues to visitors in healthcare facilities. It is fully compatible with all products in the Vital Designs Collection to ensure smooth transitions from one carpet surface to another.
The collection offers subtle aesthetics inspired by nature, helping facilities provide a calm, relaxed atmosphere. Dense construction allows for easy movement of carts and wheelchairs while providing optimum sound absorption. Lees carpet can safely be installed within a patient environment.
The Vital Designs collection features Duracolor M.D. ® and Bioguard® by Lees. Duracolor is a technology created specifically for healthcare facilities, offering effective soil and stain resistance combined with bleach resistant technology. It also offers unlimited color flexibility including multicolored space-dye yarns. Bioguard technology offers powerful antimicrobial protection.
