Sarpsborg Post Terminal

Letters, postcards and parcels compose a considerable load. In the terminal of Sarpsborg postal office it often amounts to a ton.

“In 1993 there was laid 3 300 square meters of Acrylicon Decor SW in the new building facilities of Sarpsborg Postterminal. The choice of flooring solution was based on old references, among them the Postterminal in Trondheim, where they had very good experience with the floor since 1986.
After seven years of active use, the floor is very good and with excellent bonding to the concrete. Recently we removed an installation from the floor. Tearing away the installation the floor was still stuck to the concrete, it did not follow the installation up!
The floor withstands harsh treatment with heavy traffic and over one ton loads with heavy trucks and containers. We have had some difficulties with tyre marks, but these are very easy to remove with the new cleaning solution delivered from AcryliCon.
All other cleaning is also very easy done.
In 1992 we had some epoxy laid. This floor is almost gone now. It was worn off and should have been replaced many years ago.
Acrylicon is more expensive to install, but viewing the longevity of the system, it is without doubt very good economy.
We extended the building in 1997 and decided to go for Acrylicon again.
If we should mention one problem it is the joints, where the floor is cracking up. But then again, we do not know of any industrial flooring which withstand the movement in the construction?!”
