Speedy Ultra Floor Installation at Apple Stores
April 2012

Leading flooring company, Northern Flooring, have been using Ultra Floor products on a number of projects at Apple stores across the UK.

The Merseyside based contractor has carried out repairs at several stores, including sub floor preparation and floor covering installation, in branches located in Bristol, Brighton and London to name but a few.

Ultra Floor Prime IT AR, Level IT two and Level IT super30 were used to lay 600 x 600mm Noraplan rubber tiles at selected stores covering a minimum area of 270m².

Ultra Floor Prime IT AR is an acrylic polymer emulsion primer suited for use over porous substrates. It prepares the surface, enhancing adhesion and sealing it. This dramatically improves the bond strength of cement based levelling compounds to the surface, enhancing durability. Prime IT AR is easy to use and safe to apply, and boasts excellent surface penetration and a fast drying time. It is used throughout the stores prior to levelling.

Level IT two is applied by trowel to the substrate. This self levelling latex compound combines excellent flow characteristics with strong adhesion properties. The product’s formulation is free from ammonia, creating a very low odour material suitable for confined areas as well as open. The leveller is ready to receive foot traffic after 2.5 hours.

For areas where an even quicker turnaround was required, Northern Flooring used Level IT super30, a two part rapid set levelling compound. It allows for foot traffic after only 30 minutes and is ready to receive a decorative floor covering after just 3 hours. The product is designed to compensate for shrinkage and is polymer modified, both adding to its high performance and compatibility.

Both levellers offer a silky smooth flat finish with no rub down required.

Paul Anyon of Northern Flooring recommends Ultra Floor product range for a fast, reliable installation that really lasts!

And Northern Flooring’s and Ultra Floor’s retail success doesn’t stop there! The dynamic duo have recently installed 1200m² of Amitco flooring in a department store owned by retail giant The Acardia Group. Flooring fashioned at its best!

Ultrascape opens the gateway to Liverpool
April 2012

Liverpool Lime Street station is the gateway to Liverpool city centre. Its outside entrance area has been rejuvenated using Ultrascape materials, complimenting the station’s Grade II structure.

The improvements were made using Pro-Bed HS bedding mortar, Pro-Prime slurry primer Flowpoint ECO flowable grout and Cempoint gun injected mortar. The four products are proven to be BS 7533 compliant under UKAS testing methods.

Ultrascape’s BS 7533 materials have been used extensively throughout Liverpool city centre and therefore were preferred for Lime Street station based on their good reputation.

The project was a total of 4000m² incorporating large hard landscaping with improved access, steps, planters and specialist paving with artists’ impressions engraved in it. Ultrascape Pro-Bed HS was supplied in bulk to Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering who were contracted to complete the project. 30 tonne silos of material were delivered to the project’s location, an ideal supply for such large developments.

Ultrascape’s renowned flowable grout, Flowpoint was chosen. The product is available in regular and an ECO grade, which contains 20% recycled material. Flowpoint ECO was ideal for Lime Street station, allowing the large area to be grouted with ease and then simply washed clean finishing the specialist paving. Due to the product’s rapid setting performance, paving grouted with Flowpoint can be opened to pedestrians in just 1 hour and vehicular traffic after only 4 hours, minimising disruption.

Small/intricate, vertical areas are often difficult to grout. Used in conjunction with Flowpoint, Ultrascape Cempoint, a hand-held gun injected mortar, is ideal for such pointing and was used for this project. Fast and easy to apply, with no wastage, it neatly and directly fills the paving joint. Supplied as a pre-blended product, requiring only the addition of water on-site, reducing the potential for colour variance and workmanship issues during installation. Cempoint provided the perfect solution for the vertical joints in the station’s entrance steps.

Ultrascape Cempoint is suitable for joint widths of between 5-25mm and in joint depths of 25-100mm. The product is resistant to freeze/thaw weather conditions and is shrinkage compensated.

The project finished in January and the station is now servicing hundreds of commuters in and out of the city, who find access to the station a lot easier. The longevity of the station has been secured as the British Standard, 7533 promotes professional results that can give a minimum construction life of 40 years.
