ROMEX® Information day in Kaluga/Russia

The organisation of this information day was done by the ROMEX® PARTNER Praim-T OOO from Kaluga, who has also carried out the laying work of more than 30.000 m² of ROMEX® coatings on concrete and steel platforms in various forms for the Volkswagen project in Kaluga to the fullest satisfaction of the contractor.

ROMEX® Floor and wall coatings using the airless spray method
Euskirchen:
ROMEX® Floor and wall coatings using the airless spray method

By using the airless spray method, large surface area floor and wall coatings – even overhead coatings! – can be applied quickly and cost effectively. ROMPOX® 1009 Open to steam diffusion sealant made by ROMEX® can be applied using this method for sealants and multi-layer thin coatings.

Floors, walls, ceilings and angled rooms can be easily and efficiently coated/sealed using this method. Large surface areas, fast working, easiest application, quick drying and thus huge savings in time, are the main advantages of application using this method, compared to the usual method of fur roller application. A visually attractive appearance is achieved, as there are no roller marks, and material consumption is also less than with the usual coating methods.

The system flyer „Airless spray method“ will be available soon. Please send us an E-mail and then we will send you the flyer as soon as it is ready. It will of course also be available for download from our public ROMEX® download area.

Product development at ROMEX® / ROMPOX® 1107 ESD coating
Meckenheim, Euskirchen:
After more than a year and half of research by the ROMEX® Research and Development department, the product ROMPOX® 1107 ESD coating has been developed. During the more than 30 years of experience with synthetic resin floor coating systems, this product represents a sensational further development. Up until now, ESD coatings made of synthetic resins, used fibres and granulates to produce conductivity. This method was very limited in its effectiveness because it was extremely dependent on the exact thickness of the coating. Due to the nature of the raw materials, the coating could not be produced in light colours. Thanks to the implementation of new types of raw materials, mixed together in an ideal way, the new product ROMPOX® 1107 ESD coating has the following advantages:
  • Many standard colours and above all, light colours, up to approx. RAL 9001 (cream)
  • Unified layer thicknesses are no longer necessary. Using ROMPOX® 1107 ESD coating, the required leakage resistance as well as all the other required DIN values, are achieved for all layer thicknesses. Concerns regarding this now belong to the past
  • Just one abrasion layer (surface sealing not necessary)
  • Homogenous and shiny surface
  • Fulfills DIN EN 61340-4-1 by measuring the resistance to earth
  • Fulfills DIN EN 61340-5-1 / 5-2 by using the system check „human - shoe – floor“ + by measuring the times of conductivity („static decay“)
  • Fulfills DIN EN 61340-4-5 + DIN EN 61340-5-1 / 5-2 using the walking test , measuring body tension
