ScreedsThe Optus Family of Screeds

Screeds

When it comes to heavy industry and busy workspaces, any manager of an industrial environment needs peace of mind in the equipment and amenities they provide for their workers and vehicles. This is where screeds can be used, usually manufactured from polyurethane, epoxy resin or methacrylate. Typically they can be applied between 2mm to 6mm depending on the location in which they are laid, the durability required and the volume of traffic that they will encounter. At the end of the day, they provide a hardwearing, clean, seamless finish for years to come and are available in numerous colours to suit individual project requirements.

Euroscreed

A relatively smooth substrate is required for the application of polyurethane based high friction coatings. To achieve this it is often necessary to regulate the existing surface with 50mm or more of Euroscreed. This is supplied as a 3 component system, (trowelled applied). A typical use is for filling between mild steel chevrons on ferry ramps. A regulating screed/scratch coat for use under Eurogrip 1500, 3000, 4500, Marine, and Decorative.

Freezercrete

Freezercrete is a three component polyurethane resin repair mortar/screed system, designed for low temperature repairs to small areas of damaged concrete. Freezercrete is a three component system which is supplied in pre-weighed packages.
