Pump shop forklift traffic area

Belzona Facts
Previous repair lasted only weeks, after 6 months in service the customer noted the Belzona application looked as good as the day it was installed and he no longer had to limit the loads going into the shop. The shop floor now stays dry during heavy rain. Belzona 4111 was selected to build the curb because of it's high load and erosion resisntance properties.
