Application Method

Application was carried out in accordance with a modified version of Belzona System Leaflet FPA-1. A slurry mix of Belzona 4154 was used to create a foundation where dirt was the substrate. Belzona 4124 was applied over to minimize the cost of deep pour. Belzona 4111 was used as a top layer because of its unique properties.

Belzona Facts

Backed by over 65 years of experience, Belzona was able to specify the appropriate materials. Belzona was chosen over a new concrete pour due to previous performance at the plant and time constraints. Belzona was able to deliver a high performance and a fully cured floor system.
