Sophia Laboratories Puts nora® Flooring to the Test

Mexican-based Laboratorios Sophia, S.A. de C.V. (Sophia Laboratories), a leader in the research and production of ophthalmic drugs, has invested heavily in its infrastructure, including a new facility in Jalisco, Mexico. All areas of the facility that come in contact with product must meet the strict national and international standards of the pharmaceutical industry. norament® grano met the challenge, passing a variety of tests before being installed in production areas of the new structure.

During stain resistance and stain removal tests, norament grano achieved optimal results in the production areas for which it was being considered. The company also subjected nora flooring to a year-long durability test in a corridor of an older facility and again recorded excellent results.

The floor’s low-maintenance cleaning regimen was of particular interest to the company. Administrators appreciated the ability to clean the floor without needing to shut down operations. Later, they realized the benefits of the nora pro clean system, which relies on water and exclusive nora scrubbing pads to provide a cost-effective and sustainable flooring solution that saves the company both time and money. They are equally pleased with the floor’s ability to resist micro-organism activity as well as its acoustical properties and the underfoot comfort it offers employees.
