Craft Beer Manufacturing Facility Can’t Afford Downtime for Moisture Mitigation

Wachusett Brewing Company reached out directly to Black Bear to replace the boxing and shipping area of the beverage manufacturing plant.

Project Overview
Wachusett Brewing Company reached out directly to Black Bear, having previously partnered with the company for renovations and repair. The boxing and shipping area of the beverage manufacturing plant needed replacement flooring to better accommodate the space. Once Black Bear engineers assessed the area, it was determined that new drains needed to be installed and a mitigation system would precede the top coat to protect against moisture.
The Process
  • STEP 1
    Equipment removal and relocation
  • STEP 2
    Install new drains in space
  • STEP 3
    Pitch floors to new drains
  • STEP 4
    Use Dur-a-Flex Poly-Crete MDB at ¼ inch
  • STEP 5
    Apply top coat of ColorFast Dark Gray
Project Details
  • Project Name - Wachusett Brewing Co.
  • Type of Business - Beverage Manufacturing
  • Location - Westminster, Massachusetts
  • Timeframe - 3 Days
  • Products - Dur-a-flex Poly-Crete MDB with Colorfast
Challenges
As an active manufacturing plant, Wachusett Brewing could not afford any downtime during renovation and installation. Black Bear crews needed to work around their production and within tight timelines. Black Bear needed to complete the pitched drains within a day in order to complete the full installation over three days and avoid project delays.

Black Bear's Solution

Black Bear was familiar with the plant, and was quick to adapt to the renovations needed for specific areas of the facility. The shipping spaces required installing a pitched drain and a new mitigation system before retrofitting the entire space about the client with a new floor system.
