Facing iodine corrosion and slippery surfaces, Zibo Central Hospital partnered with DajuLong—a top hospital PVC flooring manufacturer—to deploy medical homogeneous flooring that transformed daily operations.
It started with a stain.
At Zibo Central Hospital, one of Shandong Province’s largest public medical centers, staff noticed something alarming: floors in treatment rooms and hallways were turning yellow-brown after routine disinfection with iodophor. Not just discolored—degraded. Cracks formed. Bacteria found footholds. And during rainy seasons, polished surfaces became dangerously slick.
For a hospital handling over 1.5 million outpatient visits annually, the floor wasn’t just infrastructure—it was a frontline defense. When it failed, safety failed.
A New Approach: Engineering Resilience from the Ground Up
Instead of patching or recoating, hospital leadership sought a systemic fix. Their criteria were strict:
- Must resist iodine-based disinfectants without discoloration
- Must stay slip-resistant when wet
- Must support seamless cleaning for infection control
The solution came from DajuLong, a specialized hospital PVC flooring manufacturer with deep expertise in medical homogeneous flooring—a product engineered as a single, uniform layer from top to bottom.
In early 2025, Zibo Central installed 12,000㎡ of this flooring across wards, corridors, and procedure areas. Unlike layered vinyl, medical homogeneous flooring contains no vulnerable surface film. Its color and performance run through the entire 2.0mm thickness—meaning even heavy equipment or chemical exposure won’t compromise integrity.
Within weeks:
- Iodophor stains vanished—literally. Floors stayed neutral-toned after repeated exposure.
- Slip incidents dropped to zero in pilot zones, thanks to optimized micro-texture meeting R10 anti-slip standards.
- Cleaning time decreased by 40%, as dirt and microbes couldn’t penetrate the non-porous surface.
Why This Matters Beyond Aesthetics
This wasn’t just a renovation—it was a risk mitigation strategy. By choosing a true medical-grade homogeneous floor from a proven PVC flooring manufacturer, Zibo Central future-proofed its environment against the very chemicals meant to protect it.
Today, the project is cited internally as a model of “invisible innovation”—where the best technology doesn’t draw attention… it simply works, every single day.
