Cafés, bars and restaurants: floors and walls guide
Transforming spaces in cafés, bars and restaurants
Solutions to bring your ideas to life
When you’re striving to create a memorable experience to impress your customers and a great workplace for staff, you need a partner with the right products and solutions. We can help you achieve the perfect balance between welcoming, attractive spaces and safe and hygienic environments.
Our design-led floors and walls solutions are tried, tested and trusted worldwide.
Creating the right atmosphere is at the heart of designing successful restaurants, cafés and bars. Altro’s designer range of floors and walls offers design freedom, using colour and texture variations to create unique and memorable customer experiences.
We know good design is vital, but we also believe that the smartest design runs more than skin deep. That’s why our solutions extend beyond aesthetics with safe and hygienic options to meet your food safety requirements. Look to our comfort and acoustic flooring to help avoid excessive background noise and create a dining experience. Reduce downtime
by choosing Altro adhesivefree flooring – after all, time is money in the hospitality trade.
We’ve also got specialist solutions for your most hard-working areas –products where durability, comfort underfoot and safety combine for results you can rely on. And, because hygiene and cleanability are a top priority for businesses that rely on providing an enjoyable dining or social experience, we’ve got that covered too.
Our walls system has a range of design-led options and textures including tile effect, metallic and stone giving you flexibility with colours and shades to fit aesthetic and performance requirements.

Create the right mood
Whatever the style or mood you want to create, we offer a wide choice of aesthetics. From vibrant colours to create a dynamic café; muted colours for a calm restaurant or photographic walls for the feel of an Italian holiday, the choice available makes differentiating areas, or zoning, as easy as pie. And with an extensive colour palette per range, we’re confident you’ll find the products to match your style, and to bring your designs to life. For example acoustic and comfort flooring options help shape a positive and intimate dining experience, reducing excessive noise, with the added benefit of greater comfort underfoot helping to reduce staff fatigue.
Time is money
Need a fast turnaround? Our sustainable and carbon saving adhesive-free floors can halve the time of a traditional installation. You can lay, weld and walk on them all on the same day, even with a damp subfloor. Plus, there are no adhesive odours delaying opening. Our adhesive-free floors can cope with heavy catering or bar equipment with no rucking and no movement. A quick turnaround doesn’t rule out a design-led approach. We have adhesive-free floors in a range of colours and textures, including stone and wood-look options, giving complete flexibility for your differing application areas. As they are 100% recyclable, an adhesive-free floor can be uplifted quickly and easily and any leftover floor can be used elsewhere or recycled.

Safety underfoot
Slips and trips are one of the biggest cause of workbased accidents in Australia. Preventing slips among both staff and customers is something we know a lot about. Whether you need a specialist safety floor that can protect staff from slipping, even with oil and grease, or an attractive floor that prevents customers slipping without them even realising, we can help.
Hard-working spaces need hardworking products. We’re confident our specialist flooring solutions protect against slips because they’re tested with real world contaminants and still offer one in a million protection against slipping.

“We have used Altro floors at the club before and realised their many benefits. We liked the colour options and that it is a cost-effective, slip-resistant floor that is easy to clean and maintain. The result is excellent.”
