When Bon Ami, an exclusive men’s fashion retail outlet, relocated within the Nelson Mandela Square shopping complex, Sandton City, South Africa, the flooring needed to be upgraded. InstaLay was chosen because it produced a solid feeling quality finished floor and its speed of installation meant that the store would be closed for only a minimum amount of time.
The old tiles were removed and InstaLay was simply loose laid over the poor quality existing screed, avoiding time consuming and expensive sub-floor preparations. The new engineered oak boards, with an oil finish, were then rapidly installed in a herringbone pattern.
InstaLay’s unique self-adhesive membrane gripped the boards over the whole of their underside surface area to create a solid underfoot feel. The pressure sensitive adhesive allowed the planks to be installed with ease without the need for any messy wet adhesives or open time delays.
The contractors were pleased by the speed and ease of installation, and by using InstaLay the whole floor was completed in just two days. The shop owners were delighted with the look and feel of the finished floor, which could be walked on immediately allowing trading to resume after minimum downtime.
