Floors & Flooring Moduleo hits Hollyoaks Luxury vinyl flooring from Moduleo, was chosen by the design team at Lime Pictures for a new look Price Slice set on award-winning soap, Hollyoaks. The team selected the Classic Oak 24438 from the manufacturer’s Transform range for the village shop, as a result of its outstanding durability and stylish finish. Julian Perkins, production designer at Lime Pictures, comments: “We recently installed a number of new sets within Hollyoaks. “These spaces have extremely heavy use and way in excess of what you would expect in a domestic environment. “In all areas so far Moduleo has performed extremely well. The colour range we had to choose from was comprehensive and interesting.” All products in Moduleo’s Transform range feature a hard-wearing top layer, which is scuff and stain resistant, making them ideal for any commercial environment.
