Simple flooring systems, Floor coatings, Industrial flooring systems, Flooring systems for the food industry

Description

As the logistics hub for the Vion Food Group, Vion Hilden supplies German food retailers with beef and calf meat. As part of a modernisation programme, the washing hall was fitted with a new PU concrete floor—specially developed for wet areas. The robust, slip-resistant, and seamless surface meets the highest hygiene and safety standards and makes cleaning and maintenance much easier.

Building waterproofing and refurbishment

Description

All critical points of the plinth and basement waterproofing had to be waterproofed cleanly. Particular attention was paid to the connection areas and material transitions in the plinth zone, which was subject to high moisture levels. This applied in particular to the area around doors and floor-to-ceiling windows.

Heritage conservation

Description

The major fire in the cathedral took a heavy toll on the natural stone masonry. Soot and released pollutants settled on and in the walls, causing damage to them. Cleaning was carried out using a solvent-free, film-binding peel-off paste, which traps the impurities. The layer that forms is then stripped off to remove the particles from the masonry.

Interior insulation systems

Description

Decades of vacancy and sporadic use gave nature time to reclaim the site. Before the building was listed in 1979, the gable was demolished in the 1970s. But even after being granted industrial monument status, the building lay vacant and continued to deteriorate. The building ruin therefore had to be completely gutted first. Extensive energy-efficient refurbishment was necessary to make the building usable.

Wood protection, fire protection & wood refurbishment

Description

Sustainability played a major role in the choice of materials: The wood for the staircase came from sustainable forestry and the wood waste generated during the construction of the staircase was also reused. The products used were also chosen for their sustainable credentials. At the same time, they also need to withstand the high loads that are exerted on the stairs and floors by numerous visitors over long periods of time.

Building waterproofing and refurbishment

Description

The new construction of the underwater world and the large aviary in Luisenpark had to be finished with flat roof structures that would provide reliable waterproofing over the long term. Due to the exposed location and the construction-related moisture load, the flat roofs are the part of the building that is subject to the most stress. A flat roof is exposed not only to rainwater, but also to extreme temperature differences, complex structural-physical interactions and mechanical loads, such as stresses caused by expansion, shrinkage and deflection of the structure. The individuality of the roof construction presented planners and contractors with particular challenges when waterproofing the flat roof construction. But a quick and easy solution was found in the form of MB PUReactive+.

Floor coatings

Description

Choosing the right floor coating system was an important aspect when planning the hangar. The authorities stipulated that the system used must be approved according to the German Federal Water Act. In addition, the maintenance areas in the hall needed to meet slip resistance class R11, while the planned washing area required a slip resistance rating of R11/V4. And that’s not all: In addition to the rolling loads of the aeroplanes, the flooring – spanning a surface are of more than 10,000 m² – would also need to withstand other intensive mechanical and chemical stresses. And if that wasn’t already challenging enough, the floor coating had to be applied within just four weeks.

Basement renovation, Building waterproofing and refurbishment

Description

Due to years of neglect, the palace's basement rooms were in a state of disrepair. Moisture damage to the walls, accumulated rainwater, lack of insulation, and inadequate air conditioning had severely damaged the barrel and ribbed vaults made of red sandstone. The basement had to be completely restored. Extensive waterproofing and interior insulation measures had to be carried out in order to restore the premises for gastronomic use – all in accordance with monument protection guidelines.
