We have specialised in high-tolerance flat floors (superior to SR1) in television broadcasting for over 40 years. In this environment, ensuring floors are as flat as possible – for camera-tracking purposes – is key.
We have now been able to use our wealth of experience in precision flat floors and apply it to production environments where AGV and LGV vehicles are in use. We provide a range of flat floors with hard-wearing surface finishes to ensure only the best results.
For example, at AKZO Nobel, LGVs carry pallets stacked with emulsion paint ready to be secured in shrink wrap. Our precision flat floors, installed with laser guidance and free from bumps and ripples, ensure that these vehicles can run smoothly, without the risk of jolting.
This reduced the risk of wasteful spills and downtime.
Benefits
- High Load Capacity – Engineered to withstand the concentrated wheel loads of AGVs, LGVs and forklifts without deformation.
- Seamless & Durable – Monolithic, joint-free finish eliminates weak points and resists abrasion, impact and fatigue.
- Low Rolling Resistance – Optimised surface texture ensures smooth, energy-efficient operation of automated vehicles.
- Rapid Installation – Fast-curing formulations minimise downtime and keep your automated workflows on schedule.
- Easy Maintenance – Smooth, non-porous surface cleans quickly and reduces dust build-up under battery charging stations.

FAQs
Yes — our high-strength mortar systems are tested for continuous wheel loads and cyclical fatigue to ensure long service life.
Standard systems allow light use in 24 hours and full operational load capacity in 72 hours after installation.
Absolutely—our flooring resists acid and alkali from batteries and can be specified with conductive additives to control static.
Routine sweeping and a neutral pH wash-down; annual inspection for wear and grind/overcoat if needed.
