ACL Industrial Flooring were selected due the competitiveness and flexibility for this project that meant keeping the ambulance station fully operational and accessible at all times. For this to happen the workshop epoxy coating works to the floor had to be phased to allow for constant access for emergency medical crews and their vehicles.
The existing painted floor was prepared by vonarxing and grinding to get the floor back to a bare concrete surface. Minor repairs were carried out before two coats of high build epoxy resin flooring were installed, followed by final chemical resistant seal coat with a slip reducing aggregate. The chemical resistant seal coat was included to help prevent staining due to occasional aggressive chemical spillage. A central pedestrian walkway was included for safety reasons. Workshop hatchlings around a ramp and line markings to show parking and storage bays were also included in a contrasting colour.
