Truworths, a leading force in the retail industry, proudly unveils the successful completion of its expanded distribution centre, featuring advanced floor solutions provided by CLF – Concrete Laser Flooring. This remarkable milestone, centred on constructing an expanded distribution facility, integrates top-tier products from Sika South Africa and concrete supplied by Métier.
CLF’s expertise in industrial flooring solutions
CLF is celebrated for its proficiency in industrial flooring solutions, specialising in innovative and precise concrete flooring applications. With an unwavering dedication to state-of-the-art technology and superior craftsmanship, CLF consistently achieves outstanding results in large-scale projects.
Pouring robust concrete slabs
Assigned with the task of pouring a resilient and durable concrete slab for the expansive 55,000 m² warehouse, CLF embraced the challenge with precision and expertise. The floors were coated with Sikafloor®-3 QuartzTop, a single-part, pre-blended mineral dry shake hardener renowned for its impact resistance, swift application, and effortless cleaning. Every joint received meticulous treatment with Sika® Primer-3 N and Backing Cord, followed by sealing using Sikaflex® Construction+ sealant, ensuring unmatched durability and longevity.
Overcoming initial challenges
Despite encountering initial hurdles at the Truworths Distribution Centre, such as base floor misalignment of up to 20 mm, the primary contractor promptly addressed the issue, enabling uninterrupted progress. Leveraging advanced laser technology for adjustments proved pivotal in rectifying the base floor misalignment, underscoring a commitment to precision and excellence.
Exemplifying excellence and innovation
