Self-smoothing screed
December 1st 2004

When Alpha Office consolidated its operations by moving into a single, high-specification building, Ryebrook Resins was contracted to lay Ryetech solvent-free epoxy resin coating to the entire warehouse floor.

The resulting pale grey floor delivers the required level of impact, load and abrasion resistance, while also having slip-resistant properties to help ensure employee safety.

Ryebrook also laid its solvent-free epoxy selfsmoothing floor screed, Ryeflow, to the toilet facilities. Seamless, the resin floor removes the risk of bacteria being harboured in hard-to-clean places.

Ryebrook had to spend considerable time shotblasting the floor in three sections before diamond grinding to a smooth finish.

Holes were then made good with Ryebrook’s mortars and fillers before the coating was laid to a 0.5mm thickness in the warehouse.
