Requested Maintenance
The client required a robust flooring solution due to extensive damage caused by the constant use of heavy machinery. They also wanted safety lines and bin markings to comply with ISO9001 certification guidelines and improve workplace safety and organization.
Decision Driver and Timing
The primary driver for this project was the significant wear and damage to the concrete floor, which was compromising both safety and efficiency. The customer needed a durable solution that could withstand their harsh operating environment. Timing was also critical as they wanted to complete the project with minimal disruption to their production schedule, which led us to complete the work over two weekends.
