The Waldorf Hilton Hotel

Objective

Provide an aesthetically pleasing and hard-wearing resin flooring system that is anti-slip, easy to maintain, and hygienic.

Materials used

Foodsafe Quartz installed at 4mm with resin coving at 75mm

Foodsafe Quartz is an advanced flooring system that employs Methyl Methacrylate Resin (MMA) to create an ultra-strong, long-lasting solution for both pedestrian and vehicular traffic. With a rapid drying time of only 60 minutes, this system is designed to expedite the flooring process while still providing exceptional durability. Foodsafe Quartz boasts superior resistance to abrasion, impact, and chemical exposure, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas like industrial facilities, warehouses, and workshops. It is also highly popular in commercial settings like hotels, hospitals, laboratories, and food processing plants, thanks to its hygienic properties and easy maintenance. Available in a wide range of colours and finishes, Foodsafe Quartz provides plenty of design flexibility, allowing you to tailor your flooring to suit any aesthetic.

Work undertaken

To ensure an almost dust-free operation, diamond grinding machines equipped with vacuum assistance were utilised to mechanically prepare the existing floor. After a meticulous preparation process, a layer of RX Foodsafe Quartz was installed to a 4mm in thickness and featuring resin coving measuring 75mm.

Challenges

The kitchen was fully closed and empty of equipment. Installing over an old polyurethane resin floor made this a nice job to complete as we had a nice solid base to work with and no challenges.

Outcome

The hotel has been provided with a new resin floor that will last for the next 10 years plus!
