F. Ball and Co. will showcase its marine-certified floor preparation products and adhesives for optimising the appearance of flooring installations on board cruise ships at this year’s Cruise Ship Interiors Design Expo Europe.
All of the products in the company’s marine range are tested in accordance with International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards, the EU Marine Equipment Directive (MED) and UK Marine Equipment Regulations (MER).
Amongst key products is Styccobond F3 adhesive for textile floorcoverings, which can be used as part of a dual bond system to adhere carpet to underlay installed with an adhesive that creates a peelable bond, allowing it to be easily lifted without causing damage to the subfloor when it comes to refurbishments.
The marine range also features subfloor preparation products to ensure a perfect base for the receipt of floorcoverings and optimise the appearance and longevity of installations. These include F. Ball’s Stopgap 1500 high performance, water-mix smoothing compound for creating a perfectly smooth surface for floorcoverings that can be applied directly over steel subfloors as well as over old adhesives residues.
F. Ball Export Business Manager Jonathan Goold said: “Cruise ships are known for both highly luxurious interiors and demanding conditions. F. Ball’s marine range contains solutions to ensure installations maintain both their appearance and integrity over the lifetime of an installation in these environments.”
