Project description

New Construction of New Poultry Processing Plant for Maple Leaf Foods

Challenges Encountered

Many project delays – GC change, permits, COVID etc. Start dates, design and system changes resulted in aggressive schedule. Site conditions, substrate conditions, Custom colours, packaging changes to bulk PurCem 22, large volume expectations, production reconfiguration, raw material supply delays etc. There was no shortage of challenges on this project.

Why these products were chosen

mlf1

Primarily for performance for food production and environment, but there was a specific design requirement that the client needed to be addressed.

Other points to be highlighted

Enormous amount of coordination and cooperation between sales, customer, technical service, production, shipping, logistics and credit departments.

products used

Sikafloor®-22 NA PurCem®

ADVANCED GENERATION, MEDIUM-DUTY AND THERMAL SHOCK RESISTANT, SELF-LEVELLING POLYURETHANE/CEMENT SCREED
  • Can be applied onto 7 to 10 day old concrete after adequate preparation and where substrate has tensile bond strength in excess of 1.5 MPa (218 psi).
  • Easy installation requiring less labour to install than traditional Sikafloor® PurCem® trowel-grade materials.
  • Resists a very wide range of organic and inorganic acids, alkalis, amines, salts and solvents. Consult Sika Canada for full details. Refer to the Sikafloor® PurCem® Chemical Resistance Chart.
  • Similar coefficient of thermal expansion to concrete allowing movement with the substrate through normal thermal cycling.
  • Performs and retains its physical characteristics through a wide temperature range from -40 °C (-40 °F) up to 120 °C (248 °F).
  • Superior formulation eliminates formation of blisters, such as those arising out of application during elevated temperatures or early and multiple layer applications.
  • Steam cleanable at 6 mm (1/4 in) thickness. Can also be easily maintained using commonly employed methods and phenol-free detergents.
  • Bond strength in excess of the tensile strength of concrete, concrete will fail first.
  • Non-taint, odourless and phthalate-free, avoiding associated toxicity to health and environmental hazards.
  • Behaves plastically under impact; deforms but will not crack or debond.
  • Extra expansion joints are not necessary; simply maintain and extend existing expansion joints up through the Sikafloor® PurCem® Flooring System. 
  • Achieves highest performance ratings according to ASTM G21 resistance to fungi and ASTM D3273 resistance to mold growth.

Sikafloor®-29 NA PurCem®

ADVANCED GENERATION, HIGH STRENGTH POLYURETHANE/CEMENT COVING AND DETAILING MORTAR
  • Applicable onto 7 to 10 day old concrete after adequate preparation and where substrate has tensile bond strength in excess of 1.5 MPa (218 psi).
  • Designed specifically for trowel application to vertical surfaces and at wall/floor junctions.
  • Longer pot life permits increased productivity with less waste.
  • Resists a very wide range of organic and inorganic acids, alkalis, amines, salts and solvents. Consult Sika Canada for full details. Refer to the Sikafloor® PurCem® Chemical Resistance Chart.
