Middlewich Food Trays is a family run business that has been operating successfully in a highly competitive market for 35 years. The existing factory floor was beginning to deteriorate and generate dust so they needed a heavy duty floor covering to solve the problem.
The Challenge
Middlewich Food Trays needed a solution that was guaranteed to last, that would reduce the dust from the old concrete floor and that could be installed in their factory without too much disruption to the 24/7 production cycle.
Location: Knutsford, Cheshire
Space: 550m²
1. The 24/7 production cycle at Middlewich meant that they needed a floor covering that could be installed quickly and used straight away
2. Due to the nature of the products it was essential that the floor covering eliminated any dust generated by the substrate and was hardwearing enough to cope with a factory environment
3. Although Ecotile is guaranteed for 10 years, Middlewich Food Trays liked the fact that tiles can be easily replaced in the unlikely event that they should damage one.
4. Middlewich take the safety and comfort of their staff extremely seriously so Ecotile was the obvious choice as it provides good anti-fatigue properties and an R10 slip rating.
