Client and Facility Overview
Our client, a manufacturing facility in the Quad Cities area, specializes in the production of high quality industrial components. The new property acquired by our client includes a large manufacturing space that required significant floor improvements before it could be fully operational. The flooring needed to be brought up to the company's high standards for safety and durability, which are essential to their industry.
Requested Maintenance
The client was looking for a comprehensive epoxy flooring and joint filling service to improve the durability and safety of their flooring. This included filling floor joints, repairing cracks and spalls, and applying a durable epoxy coating.
Decision Driver and Timing
Timely completion of the flooring project was critical to our client as they needed the facility to be ready for manufacturing operations without delay. The primary decision driver was the poor condition of the existing floor, which was not meeting the operational needs of the facility.
Scope of Work
- Filling Floor Joints: Utilizing a polyurea system to create a smooth, even surface capable of withstanding the demands of the manufacturing environment.
- Crack and Spall Repair: Addressing these common flooring issues caused by freeze/thaw cycles to enhance the integrity of the floor.
- Surface Preparation: Grinding the floors with a diamond grinder to ensure a receptive and fresh surface for the epoxy coating.
- Epoxy Coating Application: Implementing a two-part epoxy floor system to provide a durable, moisture-resistant layer.
