A 10 DAY TURNAROUND
UltraFloor helps contractors to complete a warehouse renovation project under tight time constraints during the Christmas holiday shutdown period.
UltraFloor has provided Specialist Screed (Flooring) Solutions with expert subfloor preparation materials to complete a 2,000m² flooring project at DHM Plastics in Kent.
BACKGROUND Specialist Screed (Flooring) Solutions are known nationally for their floor zone expertise within the commercial, industrial and domestic sectors. Their extensive knowledge and experience put them in perfect place to install 2,000m² of Vebro EP Epoxy High Build Coating System at DHM Plastic’s warehouse in Lenham, Kent.
THE CHALLENGE The biggest challenge facing this project was the tight timescale Specialist Screed (Flooring) Solutions had to work to. The clients needed the project to be completed during their Christmas shutdown which meant there was only 10 days to complete the work before the machinery needed to be moved back in.
THE SOLUTION After securing the project, Steve Fincham, Head of Specialist Projects, sought professional advice from UltraFloor’s Area Sales Manager for the South, Crystal Hopkins.
After visiting the site, Crystal recommended the use of Prime IT Multi-surface Primer and Level IT Top – expert subfloor preparation materials that would meet the clients’ requirements perfectly.

Level IT Top is a polymer-rich, high-strength, single-part, cementitious smoothing underlayment which incorporates recycled raw materials. Formulated for exceptional abrasion resistance, Level IT Top has been designed for use a finished wear surface in both industrial and commercial applications.
