Belzona 5231 (SG Laminate)

Problem: The floor is subjected to foot and fork lift traffic daily, whilst also coming into light contact with acid and caustic substances present on the staff's work boots. They wanted to find a lasting solution which alleviated the stress of maintaining their floor. The brewery decided to proceed with Belzona 5231 (SG Laminate). This floor coating provides excellent protection against abrasion and chemical attack, slip resistance where required and is available in multiple colours.

Application Situation

The floor in a major brewery's workshop was needing continual maintenance. The floor paint they were using did not last long and had required constant re-application over the last 15 years.

Application Method

This application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflet FPA-8 Surface preparation was completed over a 4-day period, followed by 3 days for the application of 60 units of the two-coat system. This resulted in a durable flooring system, which will stay in place for years to come.

Belzona Facts

The customer was really impressed with the non-slip capabilities of Belzona 5231, as well how the vivid colours made it easy to visually separate certain sections. Since this application, the brewery agreed to four further areas to be protected, with ongoing discussions over further areas throughout the site with additional Belzona systems.
