Highly chemical resistant floor system for heavy loads
Brief Description
One of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world required a new resin floor for their manufacturing site in Ireland. The site employs 500 people and is a centre of excellence for Biotechnology based pharmaceutical products.
Problems and Requirements
The new loading bay required the installation of an acid resistant floor covering. The surface had to withhold tanker traffic as well as being resistant to chemical spills. Remmers Crete RT was selected as a highly chemical and mechanically resistant polyurethane screed.
Due to the location of the loading bay, it was uncertain as to whether the surface of the concrete would be dry. Remmers Epoxy FAS100 was used as a special primer with an exceptional bond to damp substrates, to overcome this problem.
