A few weeks ago, we invited a customer to our facilities at Cornellà to see how two different polyurethane floor systems can be put together—one water-based and the other HFO-based. The demonstration, which lasted several hours, was given by a team of specialist installers responsible for laying out the systems. Each of the two systems was created using both 3 and 4 layers.
Installation safety equipment and measures:
- Read the products’ safety datasheets
- Determine the most suitable personal protection equipment based on the conditions at the work site
- Use suitable protective clothing
- Use suitable gloves
- Use face and eye protection
- Use a mask for respiratory protection
Characteristics of the water-based polyurethane system:
- No effects on the ozone layer or global warming
- Practically odourless
- Slower reaction time
- The same hardness as a gas-based system
Characteristics of the HFO-based polyurethane system:
- No effects on the ozone layer or global warming
- Faster reaction time
- The same hardness as traditional gas-based systems
