South Sea is being re-coated
In the “South Seas” adventure zone, the sunbathing areas, corridors and stairways were given a new surface coating from MC-Bauchemie over an area of approx. 3,000 m². With up to 6,000 visitors a day placing the floors under duress, owners Tropical Islands GmbH were keen to make the most of this refurb opportunity.

In addition to the tropically humid atmosphere, the abrasion caused by the constant transfer on visitors’ feet of sand from the South Seas beach area meant that the floor surfaces were literally ground down. The chosen contractor, specialist floor refurbers Maertin Bausanierung GmbH, approached MC in an effort to find a suitable solution offering permanent surface protection. Ultimately, the choice went to the resilient epoxy resin coatings of the MC-DUR system, with which the project was successfully completed within the time frame set by the client.
