Plastifloor® fast curing floor coating

MMA & PUMMA resin made in Germany

Industrial floor coating

When a quick and timely solution is required, our Plastifloor® floor coating is the perfect solution.​

Plastifloor® flooring is fully loadable just 2 hours after installation. A good floor is a fundamental prerequisite for carrying out all types of work. Be it in a food processing plant, a workshop, hotels, kitchens, cold storage rooms, warehouses, production facilities, car washes, toilets, car parks, garages, bridges, balconies, terraces, etc… If the floor does not meet the requirements, it can lead to considerable restrictions – if the problem is ignored, this can affect the functionality and, in the worst case, even cause it to become unusable.


Thanks to more than 30 years of experience, we have continuously improved our floor coatings

& developed the best possible system for
a large number of applications

Depending on almost any application, we can put together a perfectly customised coating system that meets your requirements and wishes. Our Plastifloor® products are based on methyl methacrylate resins (MMA), which means that our coatings cure quickly and create durable floors.


What is special about our floor coatings?

‘PLASTIFLOOR® INDUSTRIAL FLOORS ARE FAST-CURING FLOOR COATINGS THAT ARE SUITABLE FOR A WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS.’

Feautures & services:


Functionality

Plastifloor® resins are especially impressive due to their fast curing time of 2 hours and their adaptability to a wide variety of substrates. Compared to epoxy resins, they are also non-toxic during processing, which is particularly beneficial to the health of those working with resin floors.

Advantages of acyl resins

Thanks to the short curing times between the individual layers, the maintenance work can be carried out by a specialised company within a very short time frame. This saves the customer valuable time and costs that would be incurred if production was cancelled. For example, a new tiled floor cannot be used again immediately after installation and the problem of joints, which are quickly washed out during cleaning, arises again after a short time. A seamless, tough acrylic resin floor made of Plastifloor® is therefore the right solution for the building owner.

Plastifloor® Advantages:


jointless
Hygienic
Slip-resistant
waterproof
Highly durable
Vibration absorbing
Temperature resistant
Easy to clean
Individually customisable
Fully mechanically & chemically loadable 2 hours after installation
and much more …

Our floor coatings are certified by:

Slip resistance

The slip-resistant properties of floors are tested here. Plastifloor® floors are available in the classes
R9, R10, R11, R12 & R13.

Certificate of compliance

Testing of materials to determine whether they are safe for use with food. Our floors fulfil these requirements and can be used for this purpose.

Material testing

Testing of Plastifloor® floors has shown that they are suitable for areas with extremely high mechanical loads & have good adhesion.

Health evaluation

Testing the health safety of building products indoors. Plastifloor® resins pose no danger during processing.

Case studies

Renovating the Walz mill in Horb with Plastifloor® resins

Starting point:

In order to be able to manufacture and store high-quality products, the industrial floors at Walz-Mühle in Horb needed to be level, with as few joints as possible and without breakouts, as effective raw material and material logistics can only be realised with functional floors.

When it comes to renovating, Walz is particularly keen to ensure that the areas in question can be utilised as quickly as possible, preferably without shutting down production, in order to save costs and time and thus minimise production downtime.

These factors played a decisive role in the selection of the Plastifloor® industrial floor coating system for the refurbishment of production and storage areas at Walz-Mühle.

The Plastifloor® Industry flooring system with slip resistance R11 was chosen.

Substrate preparation:

Firstly, the existing, damaged wooden floor had to be sanded down and the concrete shot-blasted to remove the cement slurry and ensure a secure bond between the coating and the substrate.

The existing joints, cracks and connections are filled. Finally, the substrate is cleaned with a vacuum cleaner before the new Plastifloor® floor can be installed.

Priming & crack repair:

The substrate prepared in this way has an adhesive tensile strength of 1.5 N/mm². This value is required to ensure secure adhesion of the coating system to the substrate. The floor was then primed with Plastifloor® 118 approx. 0.4 kg/m².

In some cases, the uneven substrate had to be reworked with KH mortar, mixed with Plastifloor® 510 and mortar mix C2, to create a level surface. To close the cracks in the substrate, Plastifloor® 510 mortar resin is mixed 1:1 with Plastifloor s/l filler and levelled into the cracks. Material transitions are reinforced with polyester fabric.

Membrane & sealing:

This is followed by the installation of an elastic membrane made of Plastifloor® 332/z, approx. 3.0 kg/m². This flexible, shock-absorbing intermediate layer enables the new synthetic resin flooring made of Plastifloor® 418 1:1, filled with s/l filler, to be laid seamlessly and permanently without cracking.

In order to achieve the required slip resistance class R 11 and enable an attractive colour design, the wet industrial floor covering is sprinkled with coloured quartz sand over the entire surface before the top coat of Plastifloor® 522, approx. 0.8 kg/m² (2 x), can be rolled on.
