720 SQM Engineering and Manufacturing Flooring for APT Chemicals of Kidderminster

PSC Flooring were called in by APT Chemicals of Kidderminster, who supply a wide range of products from food ingredients to industrial chemicals, to look at their warehouse floor.

The total warehouse floor area was 720 square metres, split into 3 sections:- 216 sqm, 216 sqm and 288sqm, each area having a concrete floor with failed floor paint and oil contamination.

In order to prepare the floor surface and remove the failed floor paint and oil contamination, a double headed diamond grinding machine and handheld diamond grinder were used to remove the top surface of the floor. All residues and dust were vacuumed clean, and repairs made to localised damaged concrete using resin screed and resin filler.

The Epoxy resin coating system was then applied. Each area received two coats of Resdev Pumatect high build epoxy resin flooring system, in the client’s chosen light grey, gloss, Ral 7035. Warehouse 1 area then had an additional layer of Resdev Pumatect high build epoxy resin, in blue, to the walkway.

The job was split into 3 phases to accommodate the client’s needs and took a total of just 6 days to complete (3 x 2-day phases).
