All
flooring products are not created equally. The environment and service
conditions dictate what type of flooring system is required. For example,
Battery Charging areas require a chemical
resistant
system, while Loading Docks require a high traffic system. Tennant has
developed a full line of Urethanes and Epoxies to allow a custom approach
to achieving your goals for your facility.

At
Tennant, all products are formulated and tested by the Floor Coating Solution
Group. Each batch is tested at the factory and also at the laboratory at
corporate headquarters. Samples of all batches are retained for 2 years
as part of our Quality Control Policy. All flooring systems are put through
a battery of tests following strict procedures administrated by the American
Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). The products are then extensively
field tested prior to being offered to our customers. Custom blending of
colors to match a corporate logo is acceptable because pigments do affect
the wear properties of the floor system. Why gamble with a one of a kind,
untested "Custom Blend" product for your facility. |

Shotblaster
is very effective, but there are several methods for preparing concrete
that are just as effective. Shotblasting does not remove grease and oil
for instance. Nor can shotblasting remove existing flooring over 30 mils.
Shotblasting does remove a portion of the wear surface (the cap of the
concrete) and should only be used when required to achieve the necessary
profile. That is why Tennant and their Authorized Contractors use a variety
of preparation methods to achieve the required results. Tennant pioneered
the development of the ECO-PREP machine to safely remove existing coatings
without damaging the cap of your concrete and without generating any hazardous
waste. many contractors cannot chemically prepare a floor either due to
lack of equipment, proper training, or proper chemicals. Tennant conducts
extensive training for their Authorized Contractors. This insures you that
the floor will be prepared properly to receive the recommended flooring
system.

Tennant
established their Authorized Contractor network to allow for the offering
of a joint warranty to cover both material and labor. The relationship
between Tennant and the Authorized Contractor is a true partnering agreement
to offer the best possible products and services to our customers. Customer
Service after the installation is also of paramount concern to all parties.
First, after the installation you will be contacted by the contractor for
any questions you may have and to present you with a quide for maintaining
your floor. Second, you will be contacted by an independent marketing firm
approximately 60 days after the installation for any questions or input
you may have. Last but not least, both your Tennant representative and
your Contractor representative are local, and are available to answer any
questions you may have. |
