Taronga Zoo - Toilet Floors
Earlier this year, The Zoological Parks Board of NSW had the bar floor of the Function Room refurbished by Remedial Building Services. Pleased with the result they called upon us to come and apply a non-slip, easy to clean, impact and traffic resistant floor to toilet blocks located within the zoo.
Understanding that our work has potential impact on the passersby in terms of noise and smell, we undertake to do all work in a non-intrusive manner. As such, after the toilet block was washed and disinfected, we prepared the surface using vacuum shrouded diamond grinders to minimize the dust.
With preparations complete, the floors were trowelled with 2-3mm of epoxy mortar and sealed with 2 coats of SF20 epoxy sealer.
Working to minimize disruption to the patrons of the zoo, we worked hours that minimized our visibility. This meant the toilet block was out of action for 3 days, however, the end result has been the application of a safe, non-slip, sealed surface that?s easy to clean and disinfect.
This epoxy floor covering is suitable for aggressive cleaning, commonly used in public toilets.
Remedial have extensive experience in the application of easy to clean, hard-wearing floors and can tailor a solution to your needs.
Since completition, the Zoologoical Park has already asked Remedial Building Services to provide solutions for other areas within the Zoo.
