Global Fish - Ålesund

“Earlier Acrylicon was an opt-out due to the price
-today Acrylicon is the best option there is
simply because it lasts longer than other floors.”

“We choose Acrylicon basically because of the wear resistance and because Acrylicon gives the best guarantee. The local representative is very reliable and keeps to the agreements made, both in respect of delivery times and prices.
Global Fish is in the fish industry, with reception and processing of pelagic fish. Operation of forklift trucks and 1400 kilo freezing steel containers provides great impact and wear to the floors. We have had some very bad and expensive experiences with industrial flooring in the past and have spent some 5 million NOK on refurbishing the floors and re-applications. Acrylicon was, in those early years, not included as a floor supplier because of their price. Today we have only Acrylicon as our floor supplier because it has better durability than any other system and especially in terms of small area impact resistance. We expect longevity of the floors to be between 8 – 10 years with normal use. Regarding cleanability and hygiene this is very easily done in the production areas without the anti skid surface. Acrylicon with the anti skid surface is a little harder to keep clean, but we accept this situation as we appreciate the benefits that the anti skid surface gives us.”
