BASF, a chemical company, demonstrated the applications of its durable and decorative flooring solutions at the Gulfood Manufacturing Exhibition 2016. BASF displayed its flagship Master Builders Solutions brand. Shane Arbuckle, Gulf Manager of Performance Flooring and Tiling Systems at BASF, said, “Flooring is a crucial component of manufacturing units, both in terms of functionality and aesthetics. The right flooring extends the infrastructure lifespan of highly demanding food processing environments and efficiently combats bacteria, organic acids and noxious chemicals. BASF’s Ucrete is a polyurethane resin-based system that been recognized across the market for its chemical and slip-resistance, and structural durability. In a business hub such as the GCC, Ucrete has also been appreciated for its convenient installation. The flooring system can be put back in service after a mere five hours at 10 degrees Celsius - minimizing downtime and making it easier for consumers to invest in this product.” 

Ucrete is known across the market as ‘the world’s toughest floor’. By extending the lifecycle of food processing units, reducing maintenance expenses and need for valuable raw materials at frequent intervals, and emitting low levels of harmful substances, Ucrete contributes to climate protection and energy efficiency. Ucrete’s numerous features make it a robust, safe and reliable option for quality working environments. The solution has been successfully implemented in Dubai World Trade Centre and the Barakat Quality Plus Factory in Jebel Ali - boosting their overall quality, hygiene and safety.
