Car park renovation works in challenging conditions

Time pressure and pandemic defied

The renovation had to be completed within 8 weeks!

Within eight weeks, new surface protection systems were to be coated on a surface area of 25,425 m².

Epoflor GmbH specialises in the renovation of car parks and the company, which is in the Allgäu region of Germany, thrives on large-scale projects. In Nenzing the renovation of the badly worn surfaces of the car park were planned.

Renovation comes to a halt due to large air pores in the concrete

Shortly after the work began in June, it came to a halt, as the condition of the building was worse than had originally been thought. There were too many large air pores in the concrete and the coating across all 13 parking levels had to be removed and completely re-applied. This additional work had not been anticipated and in order to keep to the time schedule, the epoflor team had to work 7 days a week. In addition, and due to Covid-19 regulations, no additional workers could be employed to help.

During the building work, 80% of the car park had to be in operational use on week days for employees to park their cars, so the renovation work had to be divided into phases into work phases with an area of 220 car park spaces each. This had to be planned with precision so that every floor was always accessible.

As the multi-storey car park has to withstand a wide-range of weather conditions, the builders had to carefully consider a special application for this particular project.

A variety of systems and applying two layers of sealer were used to counteract the daily wear and tear.

On the south side of the building which is exposed to the weather, VIASOL DECK 11a plus was applied and VIASOL DECK 8 was used on the ramps. In front of the ramps VIASOL DECK rapid M (V1) was used and on the inside parking spaces and the north side, VIASOL DECK 11b plus. On the drivable areas, VIASOL DECK 11p plus with double sealer was applied.

  • VIASOL DECK 11a plus (3.150 m²)
  • VIASOL DECK 8 (1.100 m²)
  • VIASOL DECK rapid M (2.980 m²)
  • VIASOL DECK 11b plus (13.875 m²)
  • VIASOL DECK 11b plus mit doppelter Versiegelung (4.320 m²)

VIASOL DECK systems for parking areas in underground car parks and car parks

Modern and durable floor coating systems for accessible areas do not only protect the building, or rather the concrete, they create a pleasant and bright appearance, the slip-resistance provides a high security for pedestrians and fulfill all required test certificates.

VIASOL DECK rapid M is the coating system with formidabel test values an is being used more and more frequently!


Some advantages of the system:

  • Fast and low temperature curing (open to traffic after 48 hours)
  • Highest wear resistance
  • 90% sand reduction
  • Odourless
  • Short installation times
  • No rashes
  • CO2 reduction
  • Checked according to DIN EN 1504-2 and DIN V18026, RILI SIB 2001, class OS10
  • Increased dynamic crack bridging class B4.2 at -20 ° C
  • Chemically resistant to oils, petrol, diesel and de-icing salt
  • Anti-slip properties for pedestrians and vehicles
  • Parking Abrasion Test (PAT) 2000 cycles - no abrasion
