What is the difference between Febset 45 and Spal-pro 2000?

You have a hole in the floor, and you’re not sure which product is the right one?  Here is a short breakdown of Febset 45 and Spal-pro 2000 to help you decide: Febset 45 is a specially formulated repair mortar which provides a repair material for concrete slabs which reaches an adequate strength for trafficking, or other use, at a very early age.  The material hardens to give sufficiently high early strength to receive heavy traffic within a period of less than one hour at 15-20°C. Advantages of Febset 45: • High strength at a very early age (45 minutes) • Minimum delay to traffic and production. • Ready for use.  Only requires the addition of water. • High bond strength.  No secondary bonding agents required. • Highly durable.  Excellent resistance to de-icing salts. • High freeze / thaw resistance. • No curing required. • Non-shrink. • Can be placed in sub-zero temperatures. Spal-pro 2000 is a rapid setting, two-component polyuria polymer liquid of 100% solids content.  When cured, Spal-pro 2000 is a charcoal gray solid with a hard rubber-like hardness of A-95. Spal-pro 2000 was developed to fill and protect joints in industrial concrete floors that are subject to hard wheels and heavy loads.  Spal-pro can be used in ambient and freezer applications. Spal-pro 2000 is ideal for the repair of spalled joints, filling random cracks and patching gouges, holes and surface defects etc. Advantages of Spal-pro 2000 • Spal-pro 2000 is rated “heavy duty” and will not deflect under loads • It is Rapid Setting.  You can expose the area to traffic loads within 15 minutes. • It can be used in coolers and freezers down to minus 29°C and in ambient temperatures up to 49°C, all with equally successful results. • You get consistent cure and quality in all environments In short, Spal-pro 2000  is more suitable for filling cracks,  opening joints and around rails.  For larger holes and doorway floor problems Febset 45 will probably be a more cost effective solution.  Proper preparation of the floor area to be repaired is critical to achieve a lasting fix with both these products .

Tswana Pride – Making us proud !

A Storax system was installed at the Tswana Pride abattoir outside Gaborone in early 2011. It has a capacity of 588 x 2000mm high pallets which are made from plastic rather than wood. The plastic pallets are supported by specially designed steel grids. These stop the pallets from slipping off the load beams and provide support as plastic can become brittle in the cold. Pallet support beams are used on the bottom level of the Storax mobiles for the same purpose. An inspection was carried out on the installation in January 2013 and the only fault found was a broken push button on a control panel. Congratulations to the manager Naboth Mujaji and to the abattoir general manager, Wayne van Niekerk on an outstanding report.  Tswana Pride is also our first cold storage client to sign up for a Barpro Service Level Agreement on their Storax mobiles.
