SELF-LEVELLING RESIN FLOORS
We lay epoxy and polyurethane resin floor coatings as an SL (self-levelling) screed. These systems are different from the resin coatings in so far as they are much thicker and therefore longer lasting than coatings. Their appearance is that of a much smoother floor surface.
Resin Flooring is the perfect solution for a multitude of heavy duty applications including; safety walkways, area demarcation and forklift truck routes through factories.
It is ideal when you want a perfectly smooth floor in a laboratory or ‘clean-room’ environment. It comes in any colour desired by the client and an anti-slip can be incorporated. It not only has an aesthetically pleasing very shiny finish but is also highly durable and easy to clean.
HOW IT’S DONE
- Start with a solid prepared surface topped with a resin damp proof membrane. Comprises two resins and a filler. Hand laid – thick layer is trowelled on and flattened
- After it’s set, we cut the resin where it covers any expansion joints in the underlying concrete and refill the gaps, to give scope for flexion and prevent cracking.
- For an anti slip resin floor, sand or quartz aggregate is scattered onto the uncured surface of the first layer of coating and allowed to dry. The second coat then encapsulates the anti slip aggregate so the surface is easy to clean. Also use special anti-slip additive in the coating which increases slip resistance.
