The traditional company Lehmann & Voss & Co. KG has been selling chemical and mineral specialty products worldwide since 1894. A section of a hall (approx. 1,100 sqm) was getting on in years. The floor and the edge areas of the ramps needed to be recoated.
The contract for the refurbishment was awarded to Leonhard Weiss in 2023. A WHG coating was to be used.
VELOSIT SC 252 was chosen for the floor leveling compound due to its rapid strength development.
The old floor was milled off and shot-blasted. The surface was then primed with epoxy resin and completely sanded with quartz sand.
Approx. 34.5 tons of VELOSIT SC 252 were pumped by Kotan Bau using a Mix Mobil Bremat S3.15 in less than 3 hours. The self-levelling, cementitious floor leveling compound was applied by Leonhard Weiss in a layer thickness of approx. 17 mm.
The floor leveling compounds based on VELOSIT SC 252 achieve a compressive strength of more than 30 MPa after a short time and are then already fully usable. The formulation used results in a final strength of CT-C50-F7.
The edge area with the ramps was redesigned with VELOSIT RM 202 repair mortar so that future forklift traffic will have no problems driving over the new area.
The area will be used for logistics at Lehmann & Voss in the future.
