The Ferrero Rocher distribution centre

Ferrero’s distribution centre in Ternat, Belgium, is a building that has undergone numerous alterations and extensions. Its floor area is small compared to the number of pallets handled there every day. A safety project prompted us to find a solution for marking out a clearly visible footpath. SolidLux Instant Coating provided the solution.

SolidLux Instant Coating is applied.

The challenge

The biggest challenge for Ferrero was that, due to the constant rubbing of the pallets against the floor, the paintwork would become damaged and wear away quite quickly. After some research, Zadvies recommended SolidLux Instant Coating. Ferrero’s warehouse manager, Jan Degreave, said: “The advantages this product offers us are that it is odourless, quick to apply, provides immediate resistance to wear and tear, and delivers on its promise of durability.”

After four months

Even after four months, the footpath still retains its attractive colour. There is indeed no sign of wear and tear. The paint coating is very easy to clean. Both dust and rubber residues are easy to remove. Degraeve: “The application process went quite smoothly as well. Roughening the surface and applying the various coats is quick and does not produce any dust or odour.”

Allow the coating to cure using a UV walk-behind lamp.

The conclusion

All in all, Degraeve can draw only one conclusion: ‘We are very satisfied with the installation and technical support provided by Zadvies!’
