A floor that has become slippery through frequent use and shows signs of wear deserves to shine again. For safety purposes, the floor must also be made sufficiently non-slip again. This can be achieved with an anti-slip floor coating. SealteQ Ivacon has carried out the floor restoration on behalf of the Cultural Building. With a new anti-slip floor coating, the floors are once again safe and well-protected for the coming years. The Cultural Building is a special complex where various facilities come together in one building. Due to the high footfall, a good, safe floor is a requirement.

The work
The anti-slip floor coating was applied to the existing cast floors. The floors were first wet cleaned using a scrubbing machine and degreaser. They were then dried using a wet vacuum. The floor was dry sanded using a woodboy and sanding nets. After sanding, minor damage was repaired. The 1st coating layer was then applied. This layer was provided with anti-slip aggregate. After sufficient curing of the 1st layer, the 2nd coating layer was applied, also provided with anti-slip aggregate. BASF MasterTop TC 428 was used for both coating layers. The anti-slip aggregate consists of 100-200 µm. µm indicates the roughness value of the anti-slip aggregate.
Delivery
The planning and risks of an assignment were properly mapped out and discussed before the start of the work. Because the colleagues were also well-coordinated, the assignment could be carried out efficiently. No special incidents occurred. In mid-April 2020, we delivered the project to the client’s complete satisfaction.
