Holistic Healing Environments
Flooring provides critical support for the environments where we heal in New Zealand. At Shaw Contract, we aim to make a Smarter Impact by advancing our understanding of all that contributes to healing – from color to acoustics, infection control to glare reduction.
How Can Flooring Improve Patient Outcomes in New Zealand?
In Healthcare, flooring provides critical support and performance for a wide range of specialised environments, from the operating room to the waiting room. Shaw Contract serves the segment as a committed partner, with unrivalled expertise and a dedicated portfolio of solution-driven products.
Responsible manufacturing begins with our product development process that considers the well-being of patients and staff in healthcare environments. For the comfort and wellbeing of patients, we use the principles of biophilic design to develop products that have a positive impact on HCAHPS scores.

Evidence-Based Design
Evidence-based design highlights the improvement in the patient experience when natural elements are integrated in the built environment. Flooring is a tool that architects and designers use to forge a deeper connection to our physical relationship with the natural environment.
