Unprepared: Tape and Rollered

After testing and re-testing various paint systems to find the best, without the need for preparation, we can offer this budget product.

Popular with facilities that may not require a highly durable system, or whose budget is restricted, or more often than not, where the customer is not permitted to prepare the concrete floor in anyway due to leasing conditions and agreements with landlords. The term ‘Unprepared’ means that we simply clean the necessary areas then paint using a high-quality Acrylic paint.

• Low cost – good for a temporary solution – 0-12 months anticipated life span
• Popular where durability not required
• No impact on the concrete surface
• Quick install with fast cure times – little impact on the operation
• Temporary solution for short term projects
  Flexible option if future changes are required

Diamond Shaved

Diamond Shaved line marking is a powerful visual impact product which gives the most durable finish of all. With this system we use a completely different preparation method. The method of preparation gives by far the greatest longevity than any other line marking system.

Diamond shaved line marking is a specialised method developed for the warehouse and distribution industry. The nature of a busy warehouse environment means that the market requires a system that will withstand constant FLT traffic over the lines, zebras, marshalling lanes etc.

Diamond shaving is the process of ‘shaving’ an area of the concrete floor surface. To create a 100mm line wide for instance, we cut a ‘trough’ into the floor approx. 1mm - 3mm deep (depending on the floor) using a special Diamond Cutting Machine. The paint is then poured into the trough allowing the paint to settle becoming flush with the concrete either side of the line. This means that any FLT’s/ MHE running over the lines will have minimum contact with the paint.

The edge of the line created during this method provides a very accurate, crisp and clean finish. Something not possible with other methods such as Shot Blasting and Unprepared where the paint lies on top of the floor surface that could incur ‘Mechanical Damage’ such as dragging pallets over the lines.

• Extremely durable solution – 3-10 years anticipated life span
• Accurate and aesthetic finish creates a professional environment
• Precise, straight and durable for many years – no repainting required
• Suitable for heavy duty traffic areas – any damage by Fork Lift Trucks is kept to a minimum
• Little or no maintenance required – great return on investment
