Our manufacturing expertise, design capabilities and the support of our in-house technical design team, have enabled us to produce a range of access covers which deliver both function and style to customers working in a wide range of building applications.”

ACO UniFace™ recessed floor covers are designed to blend with a wide range of hard and flexible floor infills of up to 15mm thickness. Suitable for use in pedestrian, light vehicle and medium duty fork-lift applications they are ideal for use in offices, shopping centres, leisure centres and schools.
