David Hockley, Area Technical Manager at Sika said: “We are delighted to introduce this CPD to the flooring industry. It provides a wealth of excellent guidance regarding resin-based systems which have increasing prevalence in commercial and flooring applications where the highest health and safety standards must be maintained. The expert advice which informs the presentation comes from years of experience in the flooring sector and facilitating the successful completion of projects of all sizes and complexity.”

The CPD comprises a number of key objectives. These include a detailed study of resin flooring’s ‘pros and cons’, key considerations regarding system specification, providing awareness of relevant industry standards and supplying ‘enhanced knowledge’ of advanced resin-based systems, technologies and flooring materials. It also offers a case study example which demonstrates how Sika’s high-performance epoxy resin range was specified to successful effect for a high profile commercial flooring project.

David added: “Sika is a global leader in the development and manufacture of products and systems for the construction industry. This CPD provides us with an ideal opportunity to share our resin flooring experience and expertise. In line with our commitment to innovation and producing solutions which result in rapid, cost-effective, high-performance, resin flooring, we believe it is our responsibility to help raise installation standards for the benefit of the end user and the industry’s reputation as a whole. This presentation is a manifestation of our aim.”
