Winter - As the seasons change, it is important that you are aware of the optimum weather and temperature conditions for maximising your painting opportunities. All to quickly Winter moves pleasingly into Spring which is a mixed bag for external painting. Often still cold and damp, substrates will not readily nor easily dry out. But there are very often some mild days which may offer a small painting window for solvent-based coatings to be applied and more importantly, to dry and cure! This would provide a particularly good time to repaint WOOD. See MORE...
Further down the line it will be the time to think about internal site maintenance and refurbishing existing floor surfaces. Over a third of all major workplace injuries are the result of a slip or trip. These incidents cost employers hundreds of millions of pounds a year in lost production and other costs. They are the single most common cause of injuries at work and they occur in almost all kinds of workplace. Most slips occur in wet or contaminated underfoot conditions.
Wet floors are, inevitably, the result of the change in season with the Winter months bringing rain showers, wet vegetation, leaves and other detritus that create unsafe surfaces. Technical Paint Services’ anti-slip paints are ideal for industrial and commercial floors such as those found in schools, factories, warehouses, garages, retail units and commercial kitchens. They may include loading bays, G.P. & veterinary floors, kitchens and reception areas, walkways and external stairs, plant rooms, pool surrounds, shower areas and communal changing areas. Chemical, urine and faeces resistant anti-slip paints are also available.
Our A109 range, A1040 Multi Purpose Paint and our Chlorinated Rubber Coatings (R10, RP10, R34, R35) are all suitable for these conditions and are certainly worth having available within your "portfolio" of Winter and Spring paints.
