The long holiday weekend of Thanksgiving and the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day can be excellent times for factories and other industrial facilities to schedule downtime and routine cleaning, painting and coating, and flooring maintenance.

That’s the advice Painters USA VP Paul Cook gives plant managers in Facility Executive.

According to Paul,

The holidays are a time for facility managers to ask a National Floor Safety Institute-certified inspector or NACE International coatings inspector to take a look at their facility.

One machine shop in suburban Chicago, Illinois, did just that over Thanksgiving. Bergst Special Tools brought in Painters USA to complete a flooring project at its facility while most of its workforce was home.
