Schluter protection for Ballymena floor design

A Schluter-Systems product story
Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Jun 9, 2009

Schluter-Systems has announced that its Schluter-Schiene profile with radius perforations has been selected to protect a floor design in the Ballymena Museum and Arts Complex.

The floor design - the river - made of resin, was bordered by ceramic tiles.

Contractor J and R Keys curved the Schluter-Schiene profile to the contours of the river as it meandered through the tiles.

The resin river, which symbolises the Braid River running through Ballymena, was installed as part of a 3,000m2 tiling project, which included four sets of stairs protected by Schluter-Trep-FL stair nosing profiles.

As well as creating individual tile fields with Schluter-Dilex-KS movement joint profiles to protect the tiled floor from movement, architect Consarc Design Group also specified Schluter-Dilex-EDP.

Two different types of floor tile were used over the complete installation, manufactured by Kronos and Imola, with wall tiles from Pilkington's.

The architects specified Mapei adhesives and grout for the project.

All the Schluter products were supplied by J and W McCall.
