Flooring For Cultural Centers

Often a cultural center will draw the populace therein due to the amazing beauty of the center itself, though most times it is a draw generally due to the public events held there. Often what happens is that the cultural center will see thousands of visitors in a year, and sometimes even over the course of months if it is a very attractive program. This means of course that damaging foot traffic will occur often. High traffic areas require heavy duty flooring.

More often than not, the center itself will be a stunning landmark building within the proud city. That means that it is not only the family events, art exhibitions, lectures, films, theater and dance events, or free music that is the only source of attraction, but even the building itself. Often impressive cultural center architecture has a following of its own. That is because frequently such buildings are created and designed to impress and turn into stunning landmarks for the city.

Sophistication is often the byword, utilizing sumptuous materials such as marble, mosaics, stained glass, mother-of-pearl, polished brass, and any other material that could be considered rich and in favor of sumptuousness. As can be imagined many cultural centers become a showcase for the many musicians, performers, local and regional artists as well as national and international performers who then try to dazzle and perhaps to outdo the physical beauty of each of these cultural centers.

With each cultural center trying to outdo the other city’s cultural center, it becomes vital that the very cultural center flooring be as impressive as possible. This is the reasoning why often such cultural centers use only Silikal for their special flooring.

A cultural center may serve wine, or at least soft drinks which may end up on the floor. This is over and above the foot traffic and thus some thought must be given to the cleanliness factor as well as to the ease of cleaning the cultural center flooring. Being easy to clean is after all essential, and nothing is as easy to clean and slip resistant as Silikal as it is all one piece, referred to as being monolithic. What that means to the average layman is that nothing will ever seep under it to fester beneath. Possibly more important is the fact that Silikal will absolutely remain seamless. Other flooring will develop cracks, fissures and other problems, but Silikal remains as beautiful as the day it was put down.

Of course, as mentioned above it is of extreme significance that the cultural center floor be beautiful as well as all the other necessities already mentioned. Beauty is definitely a byword when it concerns Silikal. The inherent beauty found in Silikal flooring is certainly welcome in such locations as cultural centers. After all only Silikal has the divergent colors and textures necessary to awe those who attend the cultural center. Often heard is the suggestion that cultural center goers come for the beauty of the center but are admonished to stay for the cultural events.
