In different types of manufacturing facilities, the degradation of floors is a common issue that arises due to the harsh operational conditions they endure. Factors such as the constant movement of heavy machinery, exposure to corrosive chemicals, temperature fluctuations, and the presence of moisture contribute significantly to floor wear and tear.
The nature of the damage varies, ranging from surface-level abrasions to deep structural weaknesses, necessitating a tailored approach to repair and maintenance to ensure the longevity of the floors.
One of the major reasons for deterioration of floor is poor design and engineering, leading to floor damage event at very early stage of usage leading to not only increase in maintenance cost but also results in increased production time. This multiple costs have direct impact on cost of production.
Traditional repair methods often entail significant costs, prolonged downtime for floor replacement and repeated applications. However, ultra-thin overlays offer a tailored solution to these challenges. By applying a resilient layer over the existing floor, these overlays reinforce the floor surface without the need for extensive disruption. Ultra-thin overlays are designed to address surface imperfections, minor cracks, and wear, while providing a smooth, durable, and aesthetically pleasing finish. The right product selection is the key, Avcon Technics AVCRETE LMC – T5 is one such product. It is an ultra-thin (5mm) heavy-duty floor screed mortar designed for very thin overlays and inlays with exceptional bond and flexural strength. This product is ideal for creating impact and wear-resistant floors, suitable for both new and old surfaces.
