Gradus has supplied and installed a range of bespoke wall protection solutions throughout the new Same Day Emergency Care building at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
Located in Chester, the development was given the green light by Cheshire West and Chester Council after plans were submitted for the project back in January 2021. Works on the 15-million-pound project commenced September 2021.
The Same Day Emergency Care building will be attached to the existing A&E department enabling medical professionals to offer rapid diagnosis and treatment for patients referred by their GP or A&E, and without patients having to stay in hospital overnight.
Gradus a market leader in wall protection solutions for the healthcare sector supplied and installed a wide range of wall protection solutions. This included CHR160 combination rails in colour Pebble, which combines a handrail and a wall guard element in a single profile.
This provides wall protection against impacts from wheeled traffic, whilst offering a comfortable grip handrail to give reassuring pedestrian support and guidance.
Gradus CGH5090 High Impact Corner Guards were also chosen and installed on this project to protect the corners, which are the most vulnerable area of a building, whilst WGS200 and WGA100 Wall Guards all in colour Pebble, were also used to protect the walls from impact and abrasion damage.
