COMMERCIAL KITCHENS & FOOD PREP A LOT OF BOTTLE
Kemtile, a division of Stonhard, has delivered a single-source drainage and flooring solution for Thomas Hardy Group, a family-owned bottling and packaging business.
Thomas Hardy Group has production facilities both in Warrington and Kendal, where they package beers, ciders, soft drinks, juices and tonic water for a number of blue-chip companies.
A multi-national brewing business referred Kemtile, referencing their experience as Kemtile delivering “fit for purpose” drainage and flooring solutions on their sites and complimenting their quality of materials, workmanship, and overall professionalism.
Kemtile was briefed by the Thomas Hardy Engineering team to provide a hardwearing flooring solution suitable for use around a new canning line. The line was to be installed at their Warrington site, providing an all-important hygienic finish that is durable, easy to clean, and would help impress future clients.
The Kemtile team successfully completed the work over three months including the installation of 1200m² of Stonhard’s Stonclad UR and Stonclad UF systems. Stonclad UR and UF are both heavy-duty polyurethane flooring systems specifically designed to provide high levels of hygiene and chemical resistance to product spillages and caustic cleaning solutions. These flooring systems also have HACCP accreditation, reinforcing their suitability for environments where safety is a priority.
The works on site also included laying flooring systems into the facility’s bunded tank areas and civil elements which included removing some existing concrete floor slabs and replacing these with new ones, treating cracks in the existing concrete with Stonproof CT5, a crack bridging bandage system.
Kemtile also applied Stonproof RH7, a waterproofing system, in some areas to ensure the concrete was fully protected from future water penetration and chemical attack. In addition, the Kemtile team also supplied a comprehensive stainless steel drainage system – all fully welded and designed to accommodate the requirements for discharge volumes used in the areas.
The flooring has exceeded all expectations. Sean Neary, engineering manager at Thomas Hardy Group, said: “From start to finish, the team’s flexibility, attention to detail, and professionalism were great. Kemtile has transformed the area around the new canning line and we are very proud of it.”
George Morton, account manager at Kemtile, commented: “It was great to leverage our expertise and experience to deliver a fit-for-purpose project for Thomas Hardy Group. Our team worked collaboratively with their team to understand their specific needs and make sure the project was delivered on time seamlessly.
“We’re confident that our solution will demonstrate durability and empower the brand to seamlessly function its day-to- day operations.”
Kemtile has a long-established reputation for supplying high- quality, fit-for-purpose drainage and flooring solutions to the food and drink sector. Drawing upon their expertise and track record of delivering solutions in the packaging and bottling industry, Kemtile is a one-stop-shop choice for companies looking for single-source solutions.
