Flowcrete China supplied its deck coatings for a car park project
at the Riverside 66 shopping centre in the heart of Tianjin’s Haihe Central
Business District.
Developed by Hang Lung Properties, the state-of-the-art, LEED certified
Riverside 66 offers more than 150,000 square metres of commercial space and has
been designed to deliver a top-quality visitor experience. The new mall is home
to over 400 renowned international brands, and includes dining areas and
entertainment zones.
Aware that the visitor’s first impression is usually formed not in the
shops, but in the car park when they initially arrive, Hang Lung Properties
wanted this space to be visually appealing, clean and calm. Flowcrete China met
their client’s specific brief by supplying and installing 60,000m² of
Deckshield ID deck coating system to create the desired car park environment.
The Deckshield range of environmentally sustainable car park coatings has been formulated
to enhance a site’s interior aesthetics, sharpen light reflectivity and prevent
water ingress that may affect the car park structure.
The clear colours and wide open spaces of seamless flooring in the car
park reflect the sprawling feel of the mall. Hang Lung Properties utilised the
Deckshield colour range to incorporate signage into the finish, creating floors
in a cool grey with crisp white line markings and coloured bay numbers that match
the facility’s colour-coded zones.
The bright, clearly visible signage performs an aesthetic as well as a functional
purpose as it also assists traffic and pedestrian movement within the car park.
Key benefits of Deckshield car park coatings also include highly
accredited fire rating; slip resistant surface reducing tyre squeal to make the
car park safer and quieter; and tough polyurethane formulation withstanding the
constant movement of vehicles, spillages of automotive fuel and oils, thermal
shock as well as wear from cleaning and general use.
All these benefits mean that the Deckshield deck coating system will
ensure the car park maintains an impressive and effective floor finish for an
extended period of time. The entire car park floor coating project was
completed in only three months.
With years of experience in the car park decking business, Flowcrete
China and its licensed contractor were confident of completing the job to a
high standard and in a timely manner. The applicators worked in shifts, day and
night for the three-month duration of the project to successfully complete the
B2 and B3 levels of the car park.
The client was delighted with the successful
outcome of the project delivered by Flowcrete and its licensed contractor in a timely
and professional manner.
