INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS_
Noraplan should be installed in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations
Training Centre is available for installation training to installers
SUB-FLOOR_
Sub-floors must be smooth, hard, clean, and dry before laying commences
The final appearance and durability of any resilient flooring installation depends largely on the condition of the surface upon which it is laid
A good sub-floor is vital in achieving a satisfactory adhesive bond and long-term durability
Uneven, solid or suspended timber floors may need preparation to meet the required standard
Noraplan Rubber SheetingErgonomic, sound absorbent, stain and slip resistant, our and noraplan® rubberflooring product collections offer you a broad variety of design options and speciality flooring applications to meet your flooring needs.
SUB-FLOOR_
All sub-floors must be tested for moisture content prior to installation
To prevent problems associated with rising damp - it is essential that a damp-proof membrane be incorporated beneath the sub-floor
The South African Standard Building Regulations require that all sub-floors in contact with the ground are so constructed as to be damp-proof
Water is an integral part of the construction of a sub-floor - the amount of water used depends on the type of sub-floor, the required structural strength and the extent of curing
It is impossible to state a time period after which a sub-floor may be considered dry enough upon which to lay flooring - factors such as ambient temperature, relative humidity, thickness of the slab, type of finish required and methods used to cure the concrete, will affect this period
There are various methods of testing the moisture content within the sub-floor, which includes the use of a Hygrometer – the most practical and accurate instrument
Noraplan Rubber SheetingErgonomic, sound absorbent, stain and slip resistant, our and noraplan® rubberflooring product collections offer you a broad variety of design options and speciality flooring applications to meet your flooring needs.
CLIMATIZATION_
Noraplan must be allowed to relax for 24 hours in a uniform room temperature between 18°C and 27°C prior to installation
ADHESIVE_
The recommended adhesive for Noraplan is FloorworX No. 71 contact adhesive
Adhesive to be spread using a trowel fitted with an B1 notched blade at a rate of between 3.2m² and 4.0m² per litre
POST INSTALLATION_
It is essential that during the course of installation the material be rolled in both directions with an articulated 68kg three section metal floor roller

MAINTENANCE_PREVENTIVE CARE
Approximately 80% of the dirt and soiling that has to be cleaned off a floor has been trafficked in from outside the building. More than 90% of that soiling can be avoided by the use of an effective entrance matting system
When less dirt is trafficked through the entrance there will be a reduction in maintenance requirements.
Regular cleaning is more cost-effective and hygienic than occasional heavy duty cleaning
Wipe up any grease and oil spills immediately and treat stains as soon as they are observed
Black rubber wheels and rubber furniture feet can discolour the floorcovering - hard plastic is preferred
Always follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions regarding the use of cleaning chemicals
Noraplan Rubber SheetingErgonomic, sound absorbent, stain and slip resistant, our and noraplan® rubberflooring product collections offer you a broad variety of design options and speciality flooring applications to meet your flooring needs.
MAINTENANCE_POST INSTALLATION SITE CLEAN
Floor maintenance begins immediately after the completion of installation
The initial step is to remove any loose dirt or debris using a dry mop, broom or vacuum
Sand, construction debris and sharp-edged objects may result in irreparable damage being inflicted to the new floor.
Remove any visible adhesive residue using a damp cloth, once the adhesive has cured it will be difficult to remove
If other trades are working in the building after the installation of the flooring, the floor must be protected from subsequent damage by the use of thick paper, cardboard or hard board.
No wet maintenance must take place until 72 hours (3 days) have elapsed from the time of installation - this is to ensure that the adhesive has sufficient time to cure properly and develop full bond strength
