Trio Plus Ram Board To Be Used In Three Hotel Refurbs


Ram Board, the revolutionary American temporary hard floor protector available exclusively in the UK from Trio Plus, is to be used in three major hotel refurbishments.

The Chancery Court Hotel is a luxury 5 star property in High Holborn. Known for its ultra-indulgent rooms and suites and just a few minutes walk from Covent Garden, the hotel prides itself on its five star service. It will be using temporary hard floor protection to protect its marble and stone floors during building works.

Carlton Tower Place on London’s Sloane Street has also placed an order for Ram Board, and will use the US-made temporary floor protector to protect its hard floors during renovations. A second order of temporary carpet protection will also ensure the carpeted areas remain clean and free of potentially damaging builders materials, paint spills, heavy foot traffic and debris as the improvements get underway.

The third hotel to make use of Ram Board floor protection during building work is the new Premier Inn at Dartford. The popular hotel chain will use the hard floor protection to allow works to go on without damaging any new or existing floors.

Designed for the tough conditions of US construction sites, Ram Board is a heavy duty temporary floor protector made entirely from recycled materials. Manufactured in California and only available in the UK from Trio Plus, Ram Board is both water proof and durable, proven capable of sustaining the weight of a fork lift truck without damage to the floor underneath.

Ram Board is supplied on a roll for quick application. It stays flat once laid and can be removed quickly to leave no residue. Unlike some hard floor protection products, Ram Board is vapour permeable, which means it can be used to protect floors that have only just been laid.

Trio Plus Premium Floor Protection Used To Refurbish Oxfordshire Manor


A stunning ancient manor on the banks of the River Thames recently underwent a large refurbishment. The magnificent manor of Bampton village has been recorded as a royal settlement as early as the 8th century and has a rich history and legacy to preserve. Refurbishments and re-fits have taken place in the current manor house since the late 17th century but this project endeavoured to be much more careful and respectful of the building's history. Trio Plus, one of the UK's leading specialists in hard floor and carpet protection, contributed to the project by safeguarding the precious floors throughout the manor whilst the refurbishment went ahead.

The hard wood floor protectors provided by Trio Plus are excellent for use in both commercial and domestic situations, with their ability to soak up spillages like a sponge and to shelter the floors underneath from dirt or grime which may accumulate during the process of a refurbishment. With a layer of fleece and a polythene backing, it makes it almost impossible for harmful or damaging liquids to penetrate the floor protector. The material will not break up and is easy to sweep clean and maintain while it is in use.

The hard wood protection materials are all re-usable (although if you're working with carpet, the self-adhesive films are single use). The rolls issued by Trio Plus are also made from an anti-slip material, which is perfect for situations where there will be heavy footfall and lots of activity. The actual adhesive used to hold the protection product in place is both eco-friendly and water-based, to ensure that no residue is left behind (providing the users stick to the recommended usage time) and making them much safer than many other temporary hard floor protection products on the market. The recommended time for the products to be left in place varies between the many products which Trio Plus have on offer, but the basic advice is that 5 weeks is the maximum amount of time for the products to be used. Any longer than this would risk transfer of the adhesive.

Trio Plus' extensive carpet and floor protection range is perfect for such delicate projects where items of historical value are involved. The specific product used to refurbish the grand 18th-century manor house was the Trio Plus Fleece Hard Floor Protection. 750m² of the premium floor protection product was used in order to keep the floors of Bampton Manor looking their best after the refurbishment.

Trio Plus Supplies Temporary Floor Protection Products To Another Prestigious London Address


Temporary floor protection products supplier Trio Plus has added another landmark London address to its portfolio following confirmation that its heavy duty carpet protection film will be used during works at the Lloyd’s Building.

The iconic modernist masterpiece, designed by noted architect Richard Rogers, celebrates its 25th birthday this year. One of the most recognisable components of the London skyline, the Lloyds Building is an integral part of the insurance firm’s image and embodies the Lloyd’s brand.

As part of the commission, Rogers placed all of the building’s services from wash rooms to lifts on the exterior, specifically to allow the interior of the space to be remodelled and adapted to market changes. With works now taking place inside the building, Trio Plus heavy duty carpet protection film will be used to protect the floor covering from dirt, dust, mess and builder’s materials.

A total of 4000 m2 temporary carpet protection will be used during the internal works. The transparent film is supplied on rolls and can be quickly applied to large areas of carpet by hand or by applicator. Like all Trio Plus temporary floor protection products it is highly durable and puncture resistant and can be left in place for up to 45 days. The water-based eco-friendly adhesive leaves no residue behind on the carpet when removed. Non skid, the carpet protector is suitable and safe for use in busy areas.

A standard version of the carpet protection film is also available. Suited to homes and businesses, it too can be left in place for a month and a half and will protect the carpets underneath from dirt, dust, spills and heavy foot traffic. For delicate carpets including very old and valuable rugs, Trio Plus Ram Board, a unique hard floor protection product direct from the USA, offers impenetrable protection with no adhesive.

Trio Plus Premium Floor Protection Used For Three Popular TV Shows


Trio Plus, one of the country's leading suppliers of temporary floor protection products, has been selected to supply a number of products for the second series of Granada TV's acclaimed show, 'Scott and Bailey'. Starring Lesley Sharp and Suranne Jones, the show enjoyed a successful run in 2011 and is due to return in 2012, with Trio Plus assigned to supply hard floor and carpet protection during the process, which will be filmed in a series of locations around Manchester.

Scott and Bailey is not the only TV show Trio Plus has been appointed to cover this month. One of the country's most popular soaps, 'Eastenders', will also be using Trio Plus' range this week, specifically 300m² of their floor protection products for a special location shoot. The hardwearing products are perfect for guarding both hard floors and carpets from the heavy cameras and the many footfalls which could damage delicate flooring on a long day of filming. Whether protecting a hard floor or a carpet, all of Trio Plus' products are easy to fit, easy to remove and inexpensive.

Even Hollywood is getting in on the act, with the special effects department from the HBO drama 'Game Of Thrones' recently acquiring 1000m² of Trio Plus' finest temporary hard wood floor protection with premium fleece, for use in a huge scene in the production. The show is based around knights and renegades battling for the throne in the medieval age, so naturally the floors need to be extremely well protected from all of the heavy armour, props and special effects machinery used on such a set. The felt topside of the fleece product soaks up any spills or moisture, absorbing all fluids like a sponge.

As the filming process for location scenes and special effects shots take a few weeks, emphasis has to be placed on keeping the carpets and floors underneath in excellent condition, ready for when the temporary floor protection is removed. Trio Plus use an exclusive water-based adhesive which carries absolutely no risk of adhesive transfer on any of the recommended surfaces it is used on. The protection can be left in place for anything up to five weeks, giving the filming crews plenty of time to shoot their action shots. Supplied on handy rolls, there are two types of carpet protection available – standard or heavy-duty. Available in a huge range of widths and lengths, Trio Plus are confident that they can meet the needs of anyone looking to protect their flooring for a temporary period.
