We recently completed a laboratory floor. As you can imagine, this requires great precision. External influences can affect laboratory tests, so the floor had to be completely seamless and even certified liquid-tight.
Over the years, we have delivered dozens of waterproof floors. However, it is rare that these need to be inspected to such an extent because a certificate is required. This was one of those cases. And rightly so, as it concerns a serious facility.
The existing substrate consisted of chipboard with marmoleum and a bare concrete foundation.
The system we applied involved sealing all around, sanding, degreasing, priming (a different primer for each substrate), coating with synthetic resin (Tecnocoat), and then finishing with a polyaspartic topcoat.
Finally, we had an inspection carried out by a specialist agency that can certify liquid-tightness. We passed, of course :)
