Contractor Solutions
Professional Flooring Installations Solutions
Professional flooring adhesives, preparation systems and technical support for professional contractors, specialist installers, specifiers and project teams across commercial, industrial and specialist flooring projects.
A successful flooring installation depends on more than the floor covering and adhesive alone. Substrate condition, moisture, backing type, environmental conditions, application method and installation controls all influence the final result.
Genkem assesses the complete installation requirement before recommending the most suitable adhesive technology or preparation system.
