A system and method for installing a graphic design on a flooring surface, where a vinyl decal displaying the graphic design is applied to a flooring surface that has been coated with multiple layers of sealer, and where after application of the vinyl decal to the sealed floor, one or more additional layers of sealer are applied to the floor, covering the vinyl decal and the areas surrounding the vinyl decal, and finally one or more layers of floor finish are applied to the surface to result in a finished floor displaying the graphic design. Application of the vinyl decal may vary depending on characteristics of the graphic design, with some applications using a specially designed applicator device, some applications using a wet application method, and other applications using a hinged application method.

A floor pavement structure includes a top layer that seals the floor pavement structure and a PU gel layer. The PU gel layer includes a solid and a liquid component and is positioned between a base material and the top layer. The solid component is a polyurethane polymer matrix. The liquid component is a plasticizer.

A floor coating material including one or both of a silane coupling agent and an alkoxysilane, as a first component; one or both of silica and a metal oxide, as a second component; a leveling agent as a third component; a curing catalyst as a fourth component; and water as a fifth component; wherein a content of the first component is 5 mass % or more and 70 mass % or less, a content of the second component is 1 mass % or more and 50 mass % or less, a content of the third component is 0.001 mass % or more and 1 mass % or less, a content of the fourth component is 0 mass % or more and 7 mass % or less, and a content of the fifth component is a balance, all based on the total mass of the first to fifth components.

A device and method device for continuous mixing and laying of cementitious coating onto a substrate. There is a first mixing stage for metering and mixing a first liquid and a second liquid to create a first mix and a second mixing stage for metering and mixing the first mix with aggregate to form a second mix. The first and second mixing stages use flow meters and flow controllers for metering and restricting the flow of the first liquid, the second liquid and aggregate. A controller operatively coupled to the flow meters and flow controllers controls the mixing in a closed-feedback arrangement. A screed box applies the second mix onto the substrate to create a flooring layer. The flooring may be in a food processing plant.

A method for the preparation of concretes with improved wear resistance. The method involves the use of colloidal silica, which is added to a concrete mixture after mixing, in conjunction with a concrete cutter, which is added to the concrete mixture after the addition of the colloidal silica.

A floor construction on a subsurface has a screed with a reinforcement made of a 3D textile with a lower and an upper textile ply which are connected together by one or more pile threads, wherein the lower textile ply is arranged in the lower half of the screed and the upper textile ply is arranged in the upper half of the screed, wherein an insulation layer is preferably furthermore arranged between the subsurface and the screed. The reinforced screed of the floor construction allows thin screed layers with good load-bearing capacity. Good footfall sound insulation can be achieved with the floor construction containing an insulation layer.
