Fleece Hard Floor Protection Products for Renovation and Refurbishment

Trio Plus, the leading floor protection retailer, have confirmed two large orders of their specialist Grey Fleece Hard Floor Protection for use during the refurbishment of two very different environments: Mottram Hall Hotel in Cheshire, and the Electric Cinema on Portobello Road in London. The fleece product is one of the most effective and budget-friendly ways in which to protect hard floors whilst construction and refurbishment is carried out. It provides an impenetrable barrier between spillages of paint, oil, dirt and even dust and the floor itself, keeping the surface below in perfect condition in even the most trying of circumstances.

The grey fleece is one of a number of hard floor protection products by Trio Plus and one of three fleece options available. A classic option, the product is supplied in easily stored rolls and can be laid simply without missing a spot. The pre-sterilized cotton and the synthetic fibres act as a sponge absorbing spillages and fluids easily on the top layer, while the polythene backing underneath prevents those fluids from damaging the floors beneath. The cushioned fleece feel also protects from foot traffic and other heavy items which could potentially have an impact on floors.

The sister product of the grey fleece is the Hard Floor Protection Standard White Fleece. The only difference between the products is the colour; the white fleece is great for use in environments where reflections on walls might be an issue, such as a short filming session. This type of standard hard floor protection can be left in place for up to five weeks with no harmful effects to the floor below, and can protect from average levels of footfall. It is ideal for use in buildings like Mottram Hall Hotel and the Electric Cinema.

The third option is a green fleece which is one of Trio Plus’ best selling temporary floor protection products. Easy to install and easy to work with, it has an anti-abrasive non woven top layer which means the product won’t break up and can be swept clean of debris at the end of each day, helping to keep the work area neat and tidy. The green fleece also features an invaluable self-adhesive backing which means it sits tight and safe on hard floors with no need to be taped down and no trip hazards. Thanks to its time and money saving properties, it is particularly popular with TV production companies needing to protect floors while shooting on location.

All three of the fleece products offer unbeatable impact protection, as well as forming an impenetrable barrier against jobsite dirt and mess.

Trio Plus Team Up With Eco-Friendly Architect To Provide Ram Board Floor Protection

TrioPlus, expert floor protection retailer, have recently teamed up with Sutters Partners Architects, a London-based design team committed to delivering stunning housing projects with an emphasis on sustainable living. A huge batch of Trio Plus’ Ram Board hard floor protection was recently delivered to one of the firm’s projects in Putney, which aims to combine eco-friendly homes with stunning architecture and design.

Sutters Partnership Architects not only specialise in building fantastically ‘green’ new homes, they also carry out large-scale renovations, and have taken on a number of heritage and conservation projects too. All of these huge ventures require a lot of manual work from builders, electricians, plumbers and other trades, and it’s vital to keep floors pristine while this work is carried out. Trio Plus’ range of temporary hard floor and carpet protection products provides a failsafe barrier between floors and the work being carried out above. In addition to this, all of the products boast great eco-friendly credentials, and are in line with the sustainable and environmentally-conscious buildings that Sutters Partners Architects are in the process of creating.

The Ram Board floor protection currently in use at the project in Putney was designed specifically for contractors, and is able to cover and protect all kinds of hard floors quickly and efficiently. Unlike the majority of hard floor protection products on the market, Ram Board is completely vapour-permeable, and its built-in breathable layer means it can be used as soon as it is laid. Many other products using adhesive must be left to dry for a certain amount of time before work continues, but the unique construction of the number one floor protection product in America means that much time is saved as a result of no waiting around. The product itself is also made up entirely of recycled materials, meaning the carbon footprint in its creation is absolutely minimised; built from cardboard, paper, ply-fibres and reinforcers, Ram Board has won awards for its environmentally-conscious qualities.

As well as being eco-friendly and time-efficient, Ram Board is also highly durable and suitable for a huge variety of purposes. It can withstand the weight of a forklift truck, and has protected areas such as Hollywood film sets, ancient listed buildings, antique floors, building sites and more. Not only can it protect floors from heavy footfalls and equipment, it also has a moisture-resistant anti-spill top layer, which protects from all liquids effectively, as well as harmful substances such as sawdust, plaster and dirt, all of which are common in areas where building work is taking place.
