chemical resistant
Uniquely resistant against disinfectants and stains
Dr. Schutz coatings protect the floor from stains and damage caused by aggressive chemicals such as iodine substitutes, disinfectants and cleaning agents.
seals hermetically
Meets and exceeds strictest hygiene standards
The permanent coatings from Dr. Schutz seal surfaces and joints hermetically. In consequence, bacteria and dirt cannot settle there but are removed during cleaning. The 2-component Dr. Schutz coatings thus meet global hygiene standards.
less downtime
We renovate your floors with hardly any downtime
Compared to replacing the floor, a renovation with Dr. Schutz can be carried out within a few days or even hours. If it has to be done particularly quickly, a special UV technique is used that makes the floor usable again within a very short time.
less abrasion
Proven to be more resistant than any other on-top coating
Thanks to their high abrasion resistance, Dr. Schutz coatings are ideal for areas that are exposed to high traffic.
Highest resistance to abrasion according to ISO 5470-1:1999 / ASTM D4060

Save costs in maintenance
Dr. Schutz permanent coatings create surfaces that are very easy to clean and thus reduce energy, water and chemical consumption by over 50%.
slip resistance
Slip-resistant floors in all areas
Slip accidents in hospitals can have serious consequences for everyone involved. With a special additive, which is mixed with our permanent coating, we equip your floors with the slip resistance classes that meet and exceed HSE slip resistance guidelines of low risks for floors according to BS 7976-2 (SATRA Report).

colour concepts
Special colour concepts provide more safety and comfort
Using colours and signage for your floor design can support older people, people with dementia or people suffering from visual impairment in their everyday lives. Guidelines, clearly visible markings on stairs or pictograms on the floor help with better orientation and safer movement.
avoid waste
Renovate instead of tearing out
For every square metre of torn-out floors more than 3 kg of waste is produced, less than 10% of which can be recycled. By renovating with the Dr. Schutz floor remake system, you make a sustainable contribution to protecting the environment.
carbon neutrality
Reduce carbon dioxide emissions and protect the climate
Compared to replacing a floor, a renovation with the unique Dr. Schutz floor remake system saves over 98% in CO2 emissions. (Source: assessment 2020/06-12227 of the German Institute for Sustainability & Economics). To compensate the remaining 2% of CO2 emission and thus making our floor renovations completely carbon free, we support a regional reforestation project by PLANT MY TREE in Germany.
restrooms
We spruce up the floors in your restrooms
Chic, hygienic, easy to clean – restrooms can be redesigned with our renovation systems. The on-top coating additionally ensures perfect hygiene and facilitates day-to-day cleaning enormously.
cafeteria
Protect your canteen floors with scratchnomore
To prevent damage to new or recently renovated floors, we recommend equipping tables and chairs in canteens and cafeterias with our Scratchnomore furniture glides. They prevent scratches on the floor, even with furniture frequently being moved back and forth, and also have a noise-cancelling effect.
creative floor design
Colourful design options for your hospital
Whether new colours, creative designs or individual logos – with our creative techniques, even boring floors in entrance areas or play zones for children can be transformed into real eye-catchers.
