Industrial Flooring & Pavements
No other aspect of an industrial building is as exposed as the flooring and in outdoor industries there is no area as exposed as the pavement. Whether it is an airport apron, a container terminal in a port, a production area in light or heavy industry, an abattoir or freezer room, or a warehouse or multi-storey car park, the floor or pavement is the common denominator that is regularly subjected to a combination of stresses.
Whatever the situation - wear, abrasion, impact, point loads, cyclic freezing and thawing, chemical attack, high pressure steam cleaning or aggressive chemical cleaning processes - the art lies in producing the correct flooring or pavement for each situation. Densit a/s is a master of this art.
Product overview
All Densit products have an extremely dense structure with very low water content and share the following properties:
High Strength
- Wear resistance
- Bearing capacity - resistance to point loads
- Impact resistance
Extreme Density
- Bacterial growth inhibited, as the dense structure provides no opportunity.
- Impermeable
- Open to diffusion of water vapour - bonding in ensured and the topping will not buckle even when the base concrete contains moisture.
- No membrane required
- Good chemical resistance - the dense structure permits only limited chemical attack.
- Chloride-resistant - salt cannot penetrate the topping and reach the base concrete
- Dust free - the toppings have no loose surface particles.
Low Water Content
- Freeze-thaw resistance - the toppings are unaffected by repeated temperature fluctuations.
- Low electrical conductivity
Environmentally Neutral
- Pure mineral product - environmentally friendly in installation and use.
Early Trafficking
- The toppings can normally be trafficked within 24 hours of laying at 20ºC ambient temperature.
Densit solutions are based on 3 fundamental systems:
Densiphalt -
Semi-flexible industrial flooring and pavement systems.
Densiphalt consists of an open graded asphalt, with the voids filled by a high-strength cement-based mortar.
Densiphalt is especially well suited to heavily trafficked areas that require a rut-resistant, wear-resistant and joint free surface.
Densitop -
Industrial flooring systems.
Densitop consists of a high-strength cement-based mortar combined with hardwearing aggregates. Its is especially suitable for areas exposed to extremely high loadings, and where hygiene requirements are strict.
Ferrotop -
Anchored flooring systems.
Ferrotop is a high-strength cement-based mortar combined with hardwearing aggregates, mechanically bonded to the subbase by one or two layers of reinforcement mesh. The system is designed especially for repairing flooring on weak or contaminated base concrete.
Properties of the Densit materials
The various Densit industrial flooring systems provide each their special combination from the range of properties:
High wear resistance
High bearing capacity - resistant to point loads
High impact resistance
Freedom from joints
Impermeability
Resistance to freeze thaw cycles
Protection of base concrete against salt
Ease of cleaning
Dust-free surface
Ability to withstand steam cleaning.
