We know that facility managers have to account for a long list of factors when specifying the floor, as maintenance issues, heavy impacts, chemical exposure, longevity, slip resistance, load bearing, cleanliness and more all have to be carefully analysed before a floor finish is chosen.

At Flowcrete, we’re committed to working with facilities managers during the specification stages and using our extensive experience to inform a holistic approach that will identify the flooring characteristics their site will require.

Visitors to this year’s Facilities Show will be able to talk to us about specifying floors matched to their requirements – whether its durability, hygiene, health and safety, chemical resistance, static dissipation or even fast cure finishes that speed up the flooring project.

Our diverse flooring range means that, regardless of the on-site challenges, a fit-for-purpose floor finish can be installed to deliver a reliable, long lasting platform that facilitates a safe, industrious and effective working environment.

The practical concerns of the installation can be just as pressing as the floor’s functionality. In particular facilities managers are often looking for ways to minimise the detrimental financial costs of downtime to ensure that productive activity commences as quickly as possible.

However putting off refurbishments or installing lower quality materials may reduce expenditure and downtime in the short term – but could lead to a number of floor failures later on that significantly disrupt operations.

The fast curing Flowfast range is ideal for sites that need a speedy application that still ensures a high quality finish. The methyl methacrylate enhanced system is able to fully cure in only a couple of hours, instead of the days or weeks of alternative materials.

The hard wearing finish that Flowfast creates is able to withstand the rigorous conditions within large-scale industrial facilities, while its seamless, impervious and easy to clean finish has made it a popular choice for areas that need to adhere to strict hygiene standards
