Reprotec provides the perfect solution for a worn out painted floor at Royal Mail workshops.
The Royal Mail’s Team Valley maintenance workshops had been painted for many years by the postal staff. Layers of paint had been allowed to build up across the 1000m² area over the years and was now posing more of a hazard than a benefit. The painted floor was dangerous with uneven areas of missing paint causing trip hazards and oil contaminating the surface was making the concrete slippery. The specification required the removal of the existing coatings and two coats of Tough Epoxy Resin.
Granted its Royal licence by King George III, the Theatre Royal Newcastle opened on Drury Lane off Mosley Street in 1788 and soon established itself as one of England’s leading theatres. The Grade I Listed Theatre today is both neo-classical monument and cultural engine, with an annual audience of 350,000 and over 400 performances each year. Theatre Royal Newcastle was presented with the ‘My Theatre Matters! UK’s Most Welcoming Theatre’ award in October 2015.
The dance studio had old vinyl sheet flooring that was causing issues with dancing classes. They needed a seamless solution that was able to handle the footfall of a busy dance studio that would also fit in aesthetically with a historic building.
Reprotec UK worked with Altro to find a solution. Altro Flexiflow in Black was specified, as it would provide all the benefits of vinyl and would be a seamless and sustainable flooring.
Reprotec UK Limited are proud to announce that they are a finalist in the North East Business Awards – Small Business Award. The Black Tie event is to be held at the Ramside Hotel Golf and Spa in County Durham on the 17th March. We are looking forward to the occasion and updates will follow.

Malcolm Carr, Site Supervisor, was presented with an award for over 20 years’ service at Reprotec, during the final company meeting of 2015.
John Holmes, Managing Director, commented;
“I was delighted to present this award to Malcolm. Malcolm came to us as a young Operative and proved himself to be a willing worker. He’s progressed through the ranks and now represents Reprotec on-site at our client Nissan, in Sunderland.
“Malcolm deserves this award, he’s a great character. And when you consider that he came to us as a young person with limited knowledge of the industry, he’s done fantastically well. Malcolm was the first of six employees, we originally put through our first NVQ Level 2 training programme in 2005, and are still with us today.”
Malcolm added;
“I’d like to thank the company for this award, it’s a pleasure to work here. Reprotec are an innovative company to work for and they invest in developing their staff.”
Reprotec’s work on a project for Newcastle’s Theatre Royal was highly commended towards the end of 2015 at a prestigious national awards ceremony.

The ceremony which was held at an annual dinner in Stratford recognised the Durham based company’s commitment to its staff with regards to training, development and achievement. Reprotec achieved Investors in People in 2006 and aimed to achieve the new NVQ Level 2 for resin flooring in 2007. Five staff members were put forward for this and, commendably, all five gained the qualification in June 2007.

Safe contractor was initially developed as a bespoke project for a property management client who wished to outsource the vetting of contractors on its approved list. Interest shown by other clients identified the potential for a standardised system that could be offered to the whole of the company’s client base.
In 1999 Supplyline was born. After further development the product was expanded to provide web based access to its clients and was rebranded as SafeContractor in 2003. It is awarded only to Contractors who can demonstrate the highest levels of Health and Safety systems. Reprotec gained their accreditation in May 2012.
Reprotec UK Ltd and 3M have signed an agreement to accept them as an approved contractor within their national network to install the full range of Liquid Applied Roofing Systems. The network was set up by 3M to ensure that only specialist contractors with the correct skills and experience to be able to meet and maintain the 3M Quality Standards would be accredited. This enables rock solid warranties to be given to the client.
Managing Director, Mr. John Holmes stated:
“This is a tremendous achievement by Reprotec to have gained this accreditation, as one of only a few companies nationally. This has been achieved by our commitment to continuous improvement, through regular training, quality audits and a committed and dedicated workforce. We have completed many successful projects over a number of years.
“It allows Reprotec to add the extensive range of the 3M Skotchkote portfolio of products to their range of specialist products.”
Reprotec UK Ltd received the ultimate recognition from the resin industry when it was awarded Project of the Year presented before a capacity audience at the FeRFA (The Resin Flooring Association) 40th Anniversary Celebration Dinner on 19 November at the Forest of Arden Hotel. The award was presented to contractors Reprotec and manufacturer Altro Floors for the North Tyneside Area Command HQ in Wallsend, Newcastle upon Tyne – a new 23 million pound development incorporating office facilities, custody suite and police headquarters serving the local community.
The striking, landmark building was modern and contemporary in design but the construction was of modular build – a unique method of construction for projects of this type. This brought about difficulties with dampness and preparation as well issues with the application and detailing of ceilings, walls and floors and adjoining sections.
The FeRFA judges chose this as the winning project because of the way the contractor and manufacturer had worked very closely with the client and main contractor to agree a variety of finishes to fit within budget, programme and difficult working conditions. New application techniques were adopted to apply the resin systems as both flooring and vertical applications. Feedback from client is excellent in terms of quality of service received and the quality of the installation which is easy to clean, very durable and looks decorative. From design stage through to handover, a true partnership of client and specialist contractor working together.
