A leading performance The Royal Festival Hall is part of London’s Southbank Centre complex and is a leading performance venue. BU Interiors were faced with resurfacing one of the hall’s busy service corridors and chose to use sub-floor preparation products from Ultra Floor’s range of levelling & smoothing compounds and primers from Instarmac plc. Efficiency was key during this project as the running of such a renowned tourist attraction could not be disrupted due to contractual work. Contractors from BU Interiors worked out of normal hours to secure the successful completion of this project, and their efforts were supported by the high performance of Ultra Floor’s newest self-levelling compound, Level IT SmoothFlow and the brand’s primer – Prime IT N, specifically designed for non-porous substrates.
