Gourmet Game: Boston – installing resin flooring and floor screed
Installation requirements
RESYN were approached by Gourmet Game, based in Boston, Lincolnshire, specialising in wholesale game products. Following the decision to buy new premises the owner contacted RESYN for advice on a suitable resin floor finish and floor screed for various areas within their new manufacturing unit. This included the chiller room and cutting room. RESYN supplied a floor screed, drainage, and resin flooring, meeting the client’s requirements in just 5 days.
The client had concerns regarding the suitability of the existing substrate and as part of the initial consultation, RESYN undertook strength tests on the concrete. The results highlighted that the substrate did not have the compressive strength needed to accept a resin floor and a new floor screed would need to be installed.
Why RESYN?
Gourmet Game asked RESYN to take responsibility for installing the floor screed. Ardex A35, a polymer floor screed, was installed requiring a cure time of three days.
The client requested that new drainage be included as part of the project. With assistance from drainage partners, Component Developments, who manufactured the specialist drainage, RESYN included the new drainage as part of the package.
The client had decided that Polyurethane was the appropriate system for the factory floor due to its hard-wearing properties and ease of cleaning. As a result, Altrocrete Excel HF at 6mm thick was chosen.
The full installation, including drainage and the resin flooring application was completed in 5 days. This ensured that Gourmet Game could continue the fit-out and open their new premises without delay.
