Merrydown Cider
Merrydown plc, producers of the famous Merrydown Cider and Schloer alcohol-free wines contacted us to look at and potentially treat several areas of the floor within their factory.
The Client
The main problem was the surfaces of the floors had been damaged over the years by pipefitting, glass and tools having been dropped onto it and the fruit juice attacking the concrete, creating a potential hygiene problem that had to be addressed as soon as possible.
We prepared the floors by removing the existing coating. We applied an overall coat of primer then filled the holes with an epoxy mortar mixture and then applied several coats of special floor coating two pack resin to the overall surface. As the finished surface would have been very smooth and a lot of water will be used on the floor, we added non-slip particles to the final coat to avoid a potential slip hazard.
Initially, we were called in to treat one floor and now we have treated seven different areas for them.
