Fast Cure Floor For Pharmaceutical Giant

The exceptionally fast three-hour cure time of Ronacrete’s RonaScreed Self Smooth industrial floor screed proved ideal when SmithKline Beecham wanted to quickly refurbish the floors of a rooftop plant room at their Harlow, Essex site. Dust and water had begun to infiltrate from the plant room through to laboratory areas on lower floors. A new, impermeable floor was needed to eliminate the problem. Its installation would require minimal disruption to the normal operation of the building, so quick-curing RonaScreed Self Smooth screed was specified together with two coats of RonaFloor EWB epoxy resin floor coating. Believed to be one of the fastest-curing industrial floor toppings available, RonaScreed Self Smooth can take foot traffic within three hours of application. Pumpable and self-smoothing, it can be applied at a rate in excess of 1,600m2 per day and is ready for coating and covering within 24 hours. Water-based Ronafloor EWB coating is free from organic solvents. It offers good adhesion to a wide variety of substrates and cures to form a tough, hardwearing floor finish that is available in a comprehensive range of attractive colours. Mark Kirkwood, Director of specialist contractors TMK Specialist Contracts Ltd, who laid the floor said: “The client, SmithKline Beecham, laid down very exacting requirements for the contract that included a tight timescale and a minimum of disruption during all phases of the project. RonaScreed Self Smooth helped us to complete the project within our terms of reference.”
