Shaws of Huddersfield

Following the initial inspection, RESYN suggested a Degafloor system for new food-safe flooring. The Degafloor MMA resins provide some flexibility and can tolerate some substrate flex without cracking. A scrape coat was applied with fibreglass reinforcement to further aid with the effects of the substrate movement. This substantially increases the tensile strength of the food-safe flooring system. All joints and cracks were treated with Degafloor’s 430 flexible jointing compound before the installation of the floor finish. The Degafloor FB system that is hardwearing and slip- resistant, making it ideal for food production facilities. The existing cove was installed in the polyurethane resin and remained in good condition. To avoid unnecessary costs, RESYN recoated this with a pigmented Degafloor seal to rejuvenate the aesthetics. With Shaw’s busy production schedule, we needed to complete the project with minimal disruption and as quickly as possible. Degafloor MMA resins are fast-curing and the systems was fully cured within two hours of installation. The production facility is divided into several different rooms and totalled 250m2. The works were completed over 5 days after which the facility could resume production.
