Case Study Details

Pharmaceutical Manufacturer Required A Level Substrate and Moisture Mitigation System to Stay Compliant

Black Bear value engineered a more extensive and effective solution for flooring in need of repair.

Project Overview
The general contractor reached out to Black Bear Coatings & Concrete to recoat flooring in need of repair. The original request was a simple topcoat overlay. Upon assessment of both spaces it was revealed that the substrate was uneven and the environment’s moisture would need to be addressed or pose a threat to new product. Thus, Black Bear value engineered a more extensive and effective solution.

    Level uneven floor using Dur A Flex
  • STEP 2
    Apply Polycrete SLM at 1/8 of an inch
  • STEP 3

  • STEP 4

Challenges
With tight timelines and two separate jobsites within the facility, the Black Bear crew needed to work swiftly during off hours. Each space presented a unique set of requirements from climate control to the weighted pressure of machinery tread. The coordination of working in shifts meant that while one area’s application set the other area was prepped for processing.

Black Bear's Solution

Black Bear proposed a cost-effective solution that included leveling the unsound existing floors and installing a moisture mitigation system prior to the new product. A seamless, waterproof system was created to provide better protection in both areas of the facility.
