Bolidtop 525 is a 2 to 3 mm thick, slightly elastic and sound-attenuating flooring system, based on two component solvent-free, low voc resins. During formulation a rich mixture of the most stable low-viscous resins are used to promote flow-properties. The seamless floor has a uniform appearance and is available with textured or textureless anti-slip coatings if required (ideal for public/commercial buildings). Extensive mechanical strength and resistance to chemicals are common features. Bolidtop 525 is available in 56 unicolour shades, however any NCS colour can be mixed.

System performance | Manufacturer guidanceHardwearing yet decorative resin flooring system, installed seamlessly to provide a hygienic and joint-free floor. |
Substrate | |
Testing | Manufacturer guidanceMoisture compression and surface regularity tests to be carried out by Stratum approved installer. Concrete/screed substrates - Must be installed to SR1 - no more than 3 mm gap anywhere under a 2 m straight edge, anywhere on the floor. - Compressive Strength - must achieve minimum 25+ on Revound Hammer. - Moisture Content - must be less than 2.5% Moisture Content to enable resin to be installed. Test by Calcium Carbide method for accurate reading. Cement Board substrates - Boards must be fully glued together with manufacturers adhesive along joints. All joints must be Tongue & Grooved - no butted joints are acceptable. - Boards must be kept dry during and after install. - Excess glue to be scraped off following curing. Raised Access Flooring - access locations must be agreed. Resin flooring can be installed directly over Calcium Sulphate glued panels. Alternatively, 18 mm screed boards can be installed over raised access floor (glued on all joints), and resin applied over. |
Preparation | Manufacturer guidanceSurface to be prepared by mechanical grinding, under full extraction to remove surface laitance and contamination. And cracks present within the substrate will need to be repaired prior to continuation with Epoxy products. Surface to be clear of any debris and dust prior to priming by suitable vacuum/ extractor. |
Levelling screed | Bonded cementitious levelling screed system.Manufacturer guidanceIf a surface regularity of SR1 is not presented, then a levelling screed may be required. Care should be taken to select a product that is compatible with Resin & (if present) Underfloor heating. Important note: crack repairs must still be completed prior to levelling over, as neglecting to would likely lead to reflective cracking. |
Primer | Bolidt Universal Primer.Guidance for specification option: Bolidtop universal primer consists of two components, based on low-viscous, solvent-free epoxy resins, which have to be mixed into a perfectly homogeneous mass shortly before use. Manufacturer guidanceUniversal Primer to be installed at a minimum consumption rate of 0.2 kg/m². Consumption will vary depending on porosity of substrate. |
Resin flooring | Bolidtop 525 Compound and Bolicoat PCn.Guidance for specification option: Bolidtop 525 Compound is a synthetic material, consisting of two components, based on branched polyols and polyisocyanates, which have to be mixed into a perfectly homogeneous mass. Bolicoat PCn consists of two components, based on waterborne polyurethane emulsions and aliphatic polyisocyanate prepolymers, which have to be mixed into a perfectly homogeneous mass shortly before use. Manufacturer guidanceBolidtop 525 Compound is installed at a rate of 3 kg/m². Bolicoat PCn is installed at a rate of 0.11 kg/m². Approximate system thickness is 3 mm. |
Surface treatment | Bolidt coating 54720 (textureless anti-slip). Low slip potential (PTV 36+) in accordance with BS 7976-2 in both wet and dry conditions.Guidance for specification option: Bolidt coating 54720 consists of two liquid components and is based on a waterborne polyurethane emulsion. When two components are mixed correctly, a product with a hard-elastic character. |
Movement joints | |
Type | Duraflex Stainless Steel movement joints.Guidance for specification option: Duraflex Stainless Steel movement joints or similar approved. |
Resin skirtings and upstands | Skirtings and upstands to match colour of the flooring system.Manufacturer guidanceStandard skirting detail, formed using pre-fabricated slender skirting profile, overlaid with resin finishing coats to provide a seamless watertight detail. 10 mm radius and up to 150 mm in height. |
System accessories | Trims by Dural.Guidance for specification option: Trims by Dural or similar approved. |
Execution | Manufacturer guidanceBolidt resin floors must be installed by trained applicators from Stratum Resin Flooring Limited. |
System completion | Manufacturer guidanceOnce completed, the floor can be protected with breathable + rigid protection after 48 hours. Full chemical cure takes 1 week, although light traffic can resume once protected. |
Colour | Manufacturer guidance56 colours available from standard range, any colour can be created with a mixing charge applicable. |
