Abstract

Outlines some of the relevant work that FeRFA (the trade Federation representing manufacturers, raw material suppliers and contractors of resin based flooring systems) has initiated to improve standards in upgrading existing industrial ground floor surfaces. Describes the properties of resin and concrete, discussing resistance to impact, wear, chemicals, heat and fire, and its porosity. Illustrates the types of resin materials available, and its adaptability. Details the approach required in order to properly assess the existing floor conditions.
