Industrial Floorings

Floored... Specialising in Industrial Flooring

Industry requires flooring that is tough, not too abrasive, nor too smooth. There are a number of flooring treatments that can ensure the finish of flooring that is required by a particular industry .
To prepare the ideal surfaces, the site is both visually and phisically inspected, before a particular flooring treatment is recommended. The flooring that is finally recomended is customised to particular industries e.g. pharmaceutical, food processing, heavy industry etc. since each of these requires a different kind of flooring.

Resin based floor coating, topping & screed compounds

Epoxy resins are being used by the construction industry to an ever growing extent in applications for which conventional matarials are only conditionally suitable or not at all. Because of their many useful properties, they can be used to formulate a wide range of products, e.g.

• Floor toppings
• Coatings
• Damp-proofing matarials
• Structural adhesives
• Injection matarials,etc.

The ready-to-use, formulated products are supplied to the construction industry by specialist firms like us who can also provide technical advice to owners, architects, engineers and contractors.

Floor toppings based on epoxy resins are exceptionally hard wearing, have antiskid properties are non-dusting and easy to keep clean. They also cure relatively rapidly and with almost negligible shrinkage, adhere durably to a variety of substrates, show very good resistance to water and chemical attack, and have high compressive and flexural strength.

This combination of properties, coupled with economy of application and maintenance, have resulted in the extensive use of Epoxy Resin based floor toppings in large and small industrial buildings where heavy duty floors are a major requirement, e.g

• Beverage, food and tobacco processing plants
• Textile and paper mills
• Watch and optical instrument factories
• Precision engineering workshops
• Printing shops
• Electrical and electronic engineering plants
• Atomic energy installationg
• Chemical plants
• Foundries
• Metal working facilities

Epoxy Resin based floors, have also proved suitable for store rooms, garages, aircraft hangers, loading ramps etc. But also Epoxy Resins generally find application in industrial floorings, they can also be used to formulate multicloured, decorative-effect floors. These have been shown to be very suitable for

• Entrance halls and corridors
• Offices and exhibition buildings
• Restaurants and canteens
• Kitchens and bathrooms.
