Degafloor - the toughest cookie at Burtons Biscuits

PETERBOROUGH, U.K. - July 29, 2014 - PRLog -- Major UK biscuit manufacturer Burtons Biscuits, has recently commissioned specialist industrial and commercial resin flooring contractor, Malcolm Hinder Industrial Flooring Ltd (MHIF), to carry out a large refurbishment project at the producer’s factory in Blackpool.

The demanding nature of this fast paced environment called for a suitably fit for purpose flooring finish that could offer exceptional durability and slip resistance, as well as fast curing properties, to minimise any possible disruption to business operations.

To ensure Burtons Biscuits’ needs were adequately catered for, MHIF recommended the use of the Degafloor FB system, which is based on highly advanced Methyl Methacrylate resin technology that enables rapid installations and creates an ultra strong bond to substrates making the floor virtually unbreakable even when exposed to constant pressures from foot traffic, heavy machinery or rigorous cleaning regimes using harsh chemicals.

Before the new floor could be installed, MHIF carried out extensive preparation works, including creating falls the full length of the area from the middle of the ovens to allow water to run off during wash down. Subsequently, the new resin finish was installed across the production area of 790m2, as well as the packing room floor.

In total, 4000m2 of Degafloor resin has been used at this site and Burtons Biscuits were most impressed not only with the professionalism of MHIF, but also with the fast curing properties of the Degafloor FB system, which enabled the works to be completed in 5 days instead of 6 as originally planned.

Due to its unique fast curing properties and unrivalled bond strength, the innovative MMA resin technology that Degafloor uses across its entire flooring range is increasingly becoming the number one choice for customers who have come to depend on it for speed of installation and unrivalled performance. Degafloor systems outperform traditional flooring finishes even in the most challenging conditions, making them ideal for food production facilities, commercial kitchens, or other busy sectors of a similar nature.
