Tapped to Provide a More Durable and Cost-Effective Industrial Floor for the Madison Brewing Company

Black Bear’s experience designing commercial flooring solutions that were functional, as well as fashionable for restaurants, uniquely positioned them as experts to complete this project – a site that doubled as a manufacturing plant and public dining establishment.

Project Overview
Black Bear Coatings & Concrete spent three days at the Madison Brewery in Vermont to value-engineer and install a replacement system that would last longer and enhance the environment of the brewery room.

Project Details
  • Project Name - Madison Brewing Company: Brewery Room
  • Type of Business - Restaurant and Beverage Manufacturing
  • Location - Bennington, Vermont
  • Size - 600 sqft
  • Timeframe - 2.5 Days
  • Products - Poly-Crete WR, Polycrete MDB, Colorfast top coat
Challenges
As both a beverage manufacturing facility and restaurant, the Black Bear crew needed to work in a tight space adjacent to the dining room while it was in service. To minimize disruption to the business, Black Bear needed to shield the work from public view, keep the space free of production debris and contaminants, and ensure that the noise level be kept to a minimum.

Black Bear's Solution

Black Bear needed to repair the substrate prior to installing a new system. Deep-fill patching was required to salvage existing slabs. The team used tarps and Hepa-filtered equipment on site to keep byproducts of the work from filtering into public spaces.
