Governmental facility flooring needs to be safe, durable, and aesthetically appealing – instilling a sense of pride in employees and visitors – while still respecting taxpayer dollars. However, when floors become old, damaged, or dangerous replacement may seem to be the only option.

Facilities managers have a cost-effective floor renewal option that offers a beautiful and safer surface without the cost or downtime of replacing existing floors.​

Case study: Fire Station floor renewal

The Volunteer Fire Station in Bratislava, Slovakia is an active first responder site that gets a great deal of foot traffic and also serves as a meeting point for the city firefighters   One room in the station served as a storage area for hoses and equipment but also housed historical items such as photos and memorabilia. The room was being renovated to become a training and multimedia room but first, the worn and damaged floor needed a significant overhaul.

Better air quality

Since Bona solutions are 100% water-based non-toxic chemistries, indoor air quality remains safe for employees and visitors thus eliminating the disruptive process of closing off areas during renovation.

From the Paris Agreement to COP to Fit for 55, governments around the world are striving to reduce carbon emissions in an effort to slow climate change.  Reducing, reusing and recycling are all ways to limit our impact on the planet.  And now resilient floors are no longer an exception  Choosing to renew these floors not only extends their useful life but reduces carbon emissions by up to 90% versus replacing the floor.
