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
