F. BALL PRODUCTS DO THE HARD WORK
Adhesives and subfloor preparation products from F. Ball and Co. Ltd. have been used to create striking features and vibrant collaborative spaces in imaginative office refurbishments in the UK and abroad.
TECH TO THE FUTURE Styccobond adhesives and Stopgap subfloor preparation products from F. Ball were used by Brajeff Flooring to refurbish reception areas and demonstration suites, a total area of 450m2
, at a software house in Middlesex, in just two weeks.
Moisture tests confirmed that relative humidity (RH) levels in the raised access floors, which were replaced as part of a refurbishment, were low enough to proceed with the installation without a waterproof surface membrane. The contractors primed the area with Stopgap P131 general-purpose primer before applying a 3mm coat of Stopgap 700, a fast-drying, self-levelling compound designed to accommodate the movement inherent in subfloors of metal and wood. F. Ball’s Stopgap 500 Micro floor finishing compound was used to fill joints in an adjacent plywood subfloor prior to the application of Stopgap 700.
Brajeff Flooring contractors cut Noraplan Uni 2mm rubber sheet into custom shaped tiles to create a pattern across the reception area. The tiles were secured to the subfloor of the reception area and continued up a ribbon-shaped vertical feature, inset with computer monitors used to display software to clients. The tiles were adhered with Styccobond F60 contact adhesive, a fast-drying adhesive that creates an instant bond that is ideal for vertical applications. The end result is a seamless transition between graphic display monitors and luxury floorcoverings.
Themed zones were created in other client areas of the software house, with Bolon tiles installed in the business zone and Marmoleum linoleum in the future zone.
