Welcome to the March 2018 issue of Tomorrow’s Contract Floors.
In order to stay in optimum condition, it’s vitally important that any flooring installation is properly maintained and cared for. This is especially true in the
case of hard flooring where improper use of finishing products or a lack of proper maintenance can have damaging results. With this in mind, we have a special focus on floor finishes & maintenance where Lisa Breakspear talks us through
the importance of using the correct products when cleaning stone, porcelain and ceramic tiles. Also within the section, Osmo UK offers tips on a faster and easier way to prepare wood floors for a final finish.
Elsewhere in the issue we take a look at flooring in the public sector where we hear some sound advice from Itec Contract Floors on how the acoustics in schools can
facilitate learning while F. Ball & Co. Ltd. reveals how their products were used in a speedy vinyl installation at a Welsh university.
Plus, in our screeds, resins & coatings section, Achtis tells us how recent advancements in microcement technology along with the growing popularity of the industrial trend, mean that now is the perfect time to reconsider the versatile material.
I hope you enjoy reading!
