Project: DO & CO

Location: Queens, New York

Client / Contractor: DO & CO New York Catering, Inc

Scope of Work: Install floor coatings in the following areas:

  • Pastry prep areas
  • Coolers
  • Vegetable wash areas
  • Halal prep areas
  • Meat prep areas

Flooring System: Sika Purcem 22NA Cementitious Urethane with a seal coat of Sika 510 Polyspartic floor coating.

Overview: The client required new floors be installed in food prep areas, which would have to be heavy duty given the nature of their business and also be installed in a short time frame to suit their 24/7 schedule.

Challenges: Access was difficult and all work areas had to be isolated from the adjacent areas which would be in operation while the floors were worked on, this meant no dust or odors could be generated.

Materials: Sika Purcem 22NA Self-leveling Broadcast Cementitious Urethane Slurry, Sika 510 Abrasion and UV Resistant Polyaspartic Resin System.

Benefits of Flooring System:

  • Resists a very wide range of organic and inorganic acids, alkalis, amines, salts and solvents. Refer to Chemical Resistance Chart
  • Cures quickly, fast turnaround
  • Durable, impermeable and seamless
  • Low maintenance
  • Meets the requirements of USDA for use in food plants
  • Durable, impermeable and seamless
  • Bond strength in excess of the tensile strength of concrete, concrete will fail first
  • It will perform and retain its physical characteristics through a temperature range from -40°F (-40°C) up to 248°F (120°C)
  • Minimal maintenance costs, superior life cycle cost advantage versus tile
  • Achieves highest performance ratings according to ASTM G21 resistance to fungi and ASTM D3273 resistance to mold growth
