Mapei showcase Mapefloor System at Benetton Knightsbridge store
A system of products from Mapei’s Resin & Cementitious Flooring line has been specified in the major refurbishment of Benetton Knightsbridge retail store. Its 1,200m2 existing tile floor has been replaced with Mapei’s Mapefloor System, to create a concrete look epoxy finish.
The existing tiles were firstly abraded using an HTC system, followed by the application of the Mapefloor System. This comprised of Primer SN; a two component epoxy filling primer, Mapefloor I 500 W; two component, multi purpose, neutral coloured epoxy treatment, Mapefloor finish 52W; two component, low yellowing polyurethane finishing compound and Mapecolor Paste; ready mixed colouring paste.
The Mapefloor System has a number of distinct benefits which were ideal for this installation such as good abrasion resistance, a very strong bond to most substrates and it is impermeable to liquids and easy to keep clean. In addition to its functional qualities, it also provides a highly decorative finish. Available in a wide choice of colours, Mapefloor system offers a modern aesthetic solution suitable for a wide range of installations including public, private, domestic, industrial and commercial applications. Mapei offers a choice of 19 RAL colours as standard, achieved when utilising the Mapecolor Paste. In addition Mapei can supply any RAL colour to order using the ColourMap system to offer the ultimate choice.
Mapei’s resin and cementitious flooring systems have been specified for prestigious projects both in the UK and internationally. The use of Mapei’s innovative Mapefloor system, at the Benetton Knightsbridge store, has created a hard, durable, dust free and easy to maintain floor with an attractive finish.

Altro flooring is first class investment at state-of-the-art school
AltroScreed Quartz™ resin flooring has been used in many areas in the new £29 million state-of-the-art Llanwern High School in Newport, South Wales.
Llanwern High School replaces the old Hartridge High School and is the second school being built as part of Newport City Council’s major secondary school redevelopment programme, following the award-winning
Newport High School. The cost of the new building was met from Newport City Council’s capital budget, as well as a contribution from the Welsh Assembly Government. The school opened its doors to pupils at the end of April 2012.
The old Hartridge High School was housed in three buildings, which were unsuitable for a number of reasons, including the state of disrepair, concrete cancer and lack of disabled access. These buildings have been demolished to make way for school sports fields. The new school can accommodate 1,450 students and facilities include a four- court sports hall, dance studio, fitness suite, JamPod room and Apple Mac suite.
HLM designed the new structure, and its aim was to create a robust, hard-wearing

environment which was also fun and colourful. The school is an H-shaped construction, with a north and south wing wrapped around a central glass-roofed atrium. Each of the wings has its own colour scheme; the north uses warm colours such as reds and purples and the south cooler greens and blues.
AltroScreed Quartz is a three-part, solvent- free system in which blended decorative quartz aggregate is bound with clear epoxy resin and finished with clear seal coats. The product provides a high-strength, chemically resistant decorative floor surface that can be coved and laid to drainage falls. It is available in 4mm or 6mm thickness.
Due to the size of the project, the Altro flooring was installed by two different contractors, both selected for their expertise in laying resin floors and for their approach to partnership working.
