Mapei creates industrial-style at Everlast Gyms – with more to follow
M
apei’s Ultratop Loft floor finish has been installed at Everlast Gyms – Shirebrook in Mansfield.
The installation, by Rossington Contracts, is part of an extensive refurbishment and ‘elevation’ programme which will include installations at up to 60 sites throughout the UK. Mapei’s industrial-style floor finish was chosen to complement the gym’s urban design, whilst providing high performance and abrasion resistance.
Located at the Frasers Group complex, the relaunched Everlast Gyms – Shirebrook features new equipment and elevated group training, along with new changing facilities, a new reception area and Smoothie Bar. Throughout the site, the Mapei Ultratop Loft installation totals over 300 m2 and spans the reception and retail area, corridors and stairs, and training areas.
Ultratop Loft was specified throughout the
venue. Following installation of the cement- based system, Rossington Contracts applied
a finishing coat of clear matt polyurethane, Mapefloor Finish 58W. Available in over 120 colours, including of popular grey shades, Mapei
a variety
Ultratop Loft is a rapid-drying, micro- cement system that combines two separate components: coarse grained Ultratop Loft F and finer grained Ultratop Loft W which are mixed with water to create a trowellable cementitious paste that is applied in layers
at 1 mm thick. Both components were used at Everlast Gyms – Shirebrook, creating a surface that was set to foot traffic within three hours. Mapefloor Finish 58W – which can be applied six to 24 hours after application of Ultratop Loft – provides additional resistance to wear, abrasion and chemicals, creating an easy care, highly-durable surface.

Hospital sees benefi ts of Forbo
Minimising disruption for patients, staff and visitors was a priority for the University Hospital of North Tees team, responsible for the refurbishment of a vast area of new fl ooring in the hospital’s main public corridors. Forbo Flooring Systems
supplied its adhesive-free Modul’up Compact sheet vinyl – a resilient fl ooring solution that was easy to install and could be walked on immediately after installation. Creating a fresh, contemporary and airy feel, the wood-effect fl ooring has been selected to complement the corridor walls, which feature a split wall colour scheme.

CaberShieldPlus, from West Fraser (Trading as Norbord Europe Ltd), is a durable, P5 fl ooring which features a permanent, waterproof coating on both sides. Almost exclusively preferred now to P4 boards – for both new-build and refurbishment applications, the P5 particleboard panels are able to withstand the unpredictable British climate without deterioration. In fact,
if installed using CaberFix D4 adhesive, the boards have BBA approval for 60 days exposure to the weather while, for safety, the upper face is non-slip and colour-coded to distinguish this.
