Philips Orastie SRL

The hall floor in the warehouse and distribution area had been subjected to heavy wear and tear in the past, due in particular to attrition from forklift truck operations. Orastie Philips therefore wanted a long-term, resilient repair solution – and one that could be implemented quickly.
So it had a number of test surfaces prepared by various suppliers. The applicator KASE PROFESSIONAL laid a sample area using an industrial floor system from MC, and it was this that ultimately came out on top against specimen coatings from other providers. Although the MC-DUR system was not the cheapest option, it was found to be technically and qualitatively superior and was applied to rehabilitate the floor, covering a total area of 8,000 square metres.
Floor coating build-up – fast and reliable

A particular challenge imposed by Philips Orastie emanated from the need to minimise production downtime. The overall project was therefore divided into four phases, implemented by KASE PROFESSIONAL between 25 June and 30 December 2015 in shifts of up to 16 hours per session. To speed up the floor repair process, the substrate preparation phase was followed by application of MC-DUR rapid primer. Thanks to its fast-setting capability – even at low temperatures down to 2° C – the surface can be overcoated after just 12 hours following application.
