DVSA ATF Workshop Floor Painting
DVSA ATF Bay – Workshop Floor Painting
Industrial Floor Treatments (Stone) Ltd are a dedicated industrial floor painting contractor that specialise in the installation of epoxy resin floor paint and epoxy resin and polyurethane resin screeds on new build and refurbishment projects.
We do not undertake domestic works.
We undertake floor painting in DVSA ATF BAYS workshop facilities, heavy vehicle workshops, manufacturing & engineering plants, printing, paper & packaging industries, food production facilities and warehouses.
Our recommended type of floor paint for use in DVSA ATF Bay Workshop facilities is a high build epoxy resin floor paint.
Two coats of high build epoxy resin has the same thickness as 14 coats of the leading single pack floor paint.
And of course being an epoxy resin it has far superior wearing properties and possesses excellent chemical resistance. It will not soften or blister under regular contact with petrol, oils, diesel and hydraulic fluids.
So why paint your DVSA ATF Workshop floor?
Safety
Pedestrian gangways should be clearly defined.
Hazards around open pits, brake test rollers and all equipment fixed on the floor must be highlighted with black and yellow chevrons approved by DVSA.
Box outlines with single directional hatching should be marked out at all fire exit doors to ensure they are not obstructed.
Where safety is a concern an anti-slip finish should be considered. This is generally deemed a requirement where a slip potential will arise on a regular basis and can be anticipated.
Light reflection
A painted floor with a gloss finish will reflect more light than bare concrete. This provides greater visibility in your DVSA ATF BAY Workshop Test Facility thus promoting safety and reducing the need for auxiliary lighting.
We can restore the most eroded of floors, repair cracks and spalled joints as well as damage from years mechanical or chemical abuse.
Aesthetics
One of the primary reasons to paint any concrete floor is the vibrancy and colour that it produces.
Employee morale
Clean, glossy epoxy resin flooring impacts on employee morale, customer confidence, and creates a more enjoyable workplace environment than an ATF vehicle workshop that has dull, dirty or bare concrete floors.
Ease of cleaning
Polyurethane & epoxy resin floors tend to be easier to clean. Bare concrete floors attract and hold dirt whereas a resin floor paint will provide a barrier that makes clean-up faster and easier. Painting your DVSA ATF BAY Workshop floor will also help keep it dry and safe and reduces the cost of sweeping and scrubbing.
Protection from wear
Concrete floors coated with polyurethane or epoxy resin floor paints will last longer than uncoated concrete. Vehicle traffic, particularly when combined with other factors, can wear away the cement paste in the top layer of concrete slabs and expose the aggregate. An epoxy resin floor paint will protect the concrete.
What type floor paint will give the best performance in a DVSA ATF BAY Workshop?
A high build epoxy resin floor paint. This is our preferred option with two coats having the same dry film thickness as 14 coats of ordinary single pack floor paint.
High build epoxy resin floor paints are ideally suited to areas that require an easy to clean, durable hard wearing floor coating such as DVSA ATF workshops, vehicle workshops, bodyshops, garages and MOT bays.
High build epoxy resin floor paints are suitable for areas of heavy vehicular traffic, regular foot traffic, rubber tyred pallet trucks, fork lift trucking and hard plastic wheeled trolleys and are available in a wide range of colours.
