OVERVIEW
Slip-resistant steps for Villa Park, home of Aston Villa football club
Degafloor were thrilled to be involved in the redevelopment of Aston Villa’s famous Villa Park football stadium. Slip-resistant flooring steps were required for the Holte End of the stadium in addition to new commercial facilities, including a new bar and suite complex.
As part of the project, slip-resistant flooring steps were required. The entire 600m² staircases were treated with Degafloor concrete crack seal, followed by a flexible waterproof membrane to deliver an impervious solution to protect the new bar and suite complex. The staircases were then finished with a bespoke Degafloor Quartz Trowelled flooring with Aggregate System, finished in a unique Terracotta Quartz.
To comply with current DDA legislation (Disability Discrimination Act) the flooring stairs were finished with a separately formed nosing in White.
Due to the tight project timescale and to overcome traditional British weather constraints, Flo-Dek (UK) Ltd recommended a range of fast-curing Degafloor MMA resin flooring systems. As well as being fast curing, all Degafloor systems exhibit excellent UV resistance – essential for external environments – whilst the QTA flooring system applied to the treads offers unrivalled slip resistance to ensure spectator safety, whatever the weather conditions.
Speaking on behalf of Flo-Dek (UK) Ltd, Sales Director Dave Cope said, “This was a very complex and demanding project. The colours had to match perfectly and the hand-formed nosings required a high level of skill and attention to detail”.
