As part of Flowcrete UK’s second phase of site development, November 2011 saw the opening of a dedicated warehouse and distribution centre located at the company’s headquarters in Cheshire.
In keeping with rest of the fittings and fixtures, the flooring system selected for the new warehouse needed to be aesthetically pleasing, easy to maintain, hard wearing and slip resistant.
In addition, the floor had to demonstrate the correct specification of industrial resin flooring systems within a warehouse environment to any visitors to the site.
Flowcrete decided to use their time proven, high performance epoxy floor coating, Flowcoat SF41.
Flowcoat SF41 was used in all areas of the 900m2 warehouse, with a range of different colors selected to designate working and pedestrian areas.
Areas leading into the warehouse were given an anti-slip coating using different application techniques to achieve a profiled surface.
Flowcoat SF41 provides durability, reliability, chemical & abrasion resistance, as well as a seamless and easy to clean finish, making it the clear choice for Flowcrete to showcase best practice flooring solutions in a modern warehouse environment.
“We’ve created the facility to send our flooring products across Europe and now have the ability to respond to the market much quicker, with even greater control of logistics and dispatch."
