ter Hürne floors for your healthy living environment
We create products that you come into contact with every day. They are an important part of your home. Our floors support the sense that you and your loved ones are in good hands. A healthy living environment is important in ensuring things stay that way.
At ter Hürne, we have a responsibility towards you for a healthy living environment. As such, we take it upon ourselves to equip our floors with the best possible characteristics to offer you precisely that: a healthy living environment.
DID YOU KNOW?
Sick building syndrome
Do you feel restless and weighed down? Do you have headaches throughout the day?
It could be a case of sick building syndrome, which happens if we spend too much time indoors. Wall coverings, furniture and the floor have a constant effect on us. What we inhale is what these products have previously exhaled. We are talking about emissions here. If products contain pollutants, these evaporate over time and are released into the indoor air. Improvements in building insulation reduce the exchange between internal and external air. The pollutants remain in the room for longer.
Do you also spend a lot of time at home?
Then look for materials that are low in emissions.
Germany's best-known environmental label, the Blue Angel, guarantees high standards for environmental and health protection. The Blue Angel therefore not only tests the sustainability of our floors, but also certifies that Avatara is particularly low in emissions and healthy for living.
TALCUSAN®
Good for low-emission living
For Avatara, we use the new intelligent material, Talcusan® instead of PVC.
Consequently, Avatara is free of PVC, chlorine, plasticizers and other solvents. That means: none of these substances get into your indoor air in the first place.
Talcusan® is excellent in low emissions.
Antibacterial, allergy-friendly, saliva-proof
The perfect housemate for your family
Avatara is made for life. Thanks to its sophisticated composition, our design floor offers numerous features that make your everyday life much easier. For example, the special surface structure ensures that allergenic substances such as pollen and mites do not stick to it. That is not the case with many other floors. Dirt and dust also have no chance of settling, Avatara is particularly easy to clean.
It also has a nice side benefit:
Thanks to the hygienic, antibacterial surface, Avatara retains its look much better than conventional vinyl floors. Dirt does not permanently settle in the surface structure avoiding unsightly effects.

By the way:
Avatara gives everyone a good feeling, even small childen. That‘s becauseour floor is saliva-proof and guaranteed not to release any harmful substances into the indoor air.
