Active Flooring completes Trinity School install with safety-assured Mapei system

Back

April 8, 2024

Active Flooring has completed an extensive installation, using a Mapei sustainable flooring system, at Colchester’s new Trinity School. Constructed by Bowmer + Kirkland for the Department of Education, the new school will provide 900 student places. The floor installation within the new three-storey building included a selection of Gerflor’s Vinyl Safety, Homogeneous & ESD Flooring and Burmatex® cordiale carpet tiles throughout classrooms and school office areas.

The new building, designed by Stride Treglown Architects, features a large atrium at its centre – above a dining room - and a single storey link which provides covered access to a 2.5 storey tall sports block.

During the floor preparation phase, Active Flooring installed Mapeproof Primer – a one-component, rapid drying ready-to-use waterproof surface membrane and then levelled and smoothed subfloors with Latexplan Trade – a protein-free, low odour levelling and smoothing compound with high compressive strength.

Two adhesives were used to complete the installation: for the vinyl flooring, Ultrabond Eco V4 Evolution all-in-one universal adhesive - a strong, rapid initial tack formulation with a long open time was used and Ultrabond Eco Tack TX+ - an acrylic-adhesive carpet tile tackifier in water dispersion for the carpet tiles. All Mapei products specified benefit from EMICODE: EC1 Plus formulations, with very low VOC’s, promoting a safe application and environment.
