Following a decision by the shareholders of Bates Access Flooring (BAF) to wind down operations, KBAC Flooring will now along with its extensive product line also focus on the direct sales of access flooring.

Guy says KBAC Flooring wants to work in close cooperation with designers and architects to remove all misconceptions about access flooring. “We would like designers to realise that raised access flooring does not limit their floor covering options, and point out that access flooring is much more than just a ‘raised platform’. Specifiers should also know that various products have very different attributes and design features that affect long-term flexibility and durability.”
