The demand for warehousing has increased exponentially as a result of changing buyers’ habits over the last few months. Reaching record levels across the UK, a total of 22.4m sq.ft of warehousing space was taken up in H1 of this year…*

Now, although space is the priority for ensuring safe storage and housing of products and ease of logistics, getting a warehouse operational can be a challenge. From health and safety procedures to aesthetics, a warehouse needs to meet relevant criteria to protect personnel and product. Naturally, this takes time.

This is where offsite processing and pre-finishing solutions can really help to speed up overall timescales and also instil confidence in performance…

 

From floors to doors

Warehouses are high-traffic environments so ensuring they are fit for purpose and can be relied upon is important.

Combining the latest coating technology with technical expertise, TFS offers an array of commercial solutions that will enhance warehousing environments.

• Slip and Wear Resistant

Independently tested, TFS’s hard-wearing flooring solutions have not only been designed to last, but also support health and safety compliance – putting facilities managers’ minds at rest.

 

• Aesthetic Design

Not always a main consideration within warehousing, but TFS can apply decorative performance coatings to commercial flooring substrates. Timber faced doors can also be full finished to any RAL colour, or lacquered for the desired finish.

 

• Fire Protection

From factory applied Class O foils to the underside of mezzanine flooring levels, to fire retardant coatings that are guaranteed to meet Euro Class B classification, TFS can also accurately machine fire doors to specification, within the auspices of BWF membership.

 

Working with a processing partner can speed up completion by taking previously applied on-site jobs, offsite. Removing the need to wait for coatings to dry, whilst having them factory-applied to exact specification, facilities managers can have complete faith in the performance of internal surfaces, making construction and maintenance easier than ever before.
