‘Tick Tock’... Introducing the 60 minute Quantum “Flexyfixing” Stair Nosing solution

‘Tick Tock’... Introducing the 60 minute Quantum “Flexyfixing” Stair Nosing solution

More Lean help for our customers (and our customers’ customers)

Minimise waste on site; of time and material and money

Limited access and extensive levels of disruption have long been key challenges in the refurbishment of commercial and office buildings. Quantum Flooring has, in conjunction with flooring adhesives specialists Rewmar Ltd recently developed an all-in-one solution to these problems in the form of its Flexyfix system.

The Lean system maximises a flexible high grab and rapid cure time that is delivered by Flexyfix. This enables the contractor to open the staircase to pedestrian traffic 60 minutes after the last Stair Nosing has been installed and checked by the contractor. This is a major benefit where disruption levels need to be kept to a minimum and frequently enables work that would normally be scheduled for overnight or out of office hours to take place during the normal working day.  Mess is also minimised because there is no dust caused by drilling and any adhesive smears can be easily cleaned off.

A number of contractors have commented that speed and accuracy are the biggest benefits delivering both convenience and huge cost savings as the use of Flexyfix makes the use of screws and drilling redundant. The trouble free fitting method takes less than 90 seconds to install a single Stair Nosing.

In a case study at a high street bank (see Quantum website) using the Flexyfix fitting method, “Flexyfixing”, work that was scheduled to take place over a weekend was completed in under one hour. Only one fitter was required during office hours making a grand saving of more than £300 in labour charges alone, plus another £80- £100 pounds in drill bits giving a savings in the order of £400.

The ”Flexyfixing” system revolutionises Stair Nose installation and can be used with all of Quantum Flooring’s products, especially Q range. Key features of Q range include a unique edge to edge tread that provides a slip resistant surface for the entire depth of the Stair Nosing tread. Another important feature is the scratch resistant material ensuring the Nosing is easy to maintain. Also, the satin etched riser helps to meet Equality Act safety guidelines.


Q range has a varied colour range and is manufactured using ‘LEAN’ principles which guarantee efficiency and make the product an ideal match for the quick and easy Flexyfix system. Please contact Quantum Flooring on 0161 627 4222 or visit www.quantumflooring.co.uk/qrange for more information.
