Installation of drainage channel & Polyurethane Screed to new food production area.

The Project: 

Our client was converting an old warehouse unit into a new food production area. The specification was to install an new drainage channel in the cooking area and 9mm Salsa Polyurethane Screen. The remaining dry production area, a blue 3mm polyurethane screed was to be installed.

Stage 1: Break out and install the new stainless steel channel.

The area for the new channel was to be installed was broken out and connected to a outlet pipe to the outside drainage system. The channel was then braced into position and using polymer modified screed set into place ready for the screed to be installed the following week.

Stage 2: Installation of 3mm Polyurethane SL Screed.

We prepared all areas using our diamond grinding equipment and cut all anchorage groves into the floor. Once the preparation was complete we applied a coat of Epoxy DPM Primer to seal the prepared concrete ready for the screed to be installed. The area was installed in stages due to other works taking place in the area at the same time.

 

Stage 3: Installation of 9mm Polyurethane 9mm Screed 

We installed a fall using polyurethane Bulk to create a fall towards the drainage channel from the back wall. The area was then prepared and primed as per the previous areas, before the 9mm Polyurethane HF Screed was installed. Finally all expansion joints were cut and infilled using polyurethane joint material.
