Needs Analysis
 

  
 

It is APPLIED’s business to understand your Floor Needs
In order to generate an appropriate floor system suited for your needs, we utilize two tools, the Floor Audit® and the Floor Needs Profile. 
Both tools are exclusive to Applied.

 The Floor Audit® is a floor inventory in descriptive and pictorial form.

The Floor Needs Profile (FNP) is the recording of what your flooring priorities are based on the criteria to include the following:
 
Environmental: such as containment protection.
 		  

Operational Changes; that include change of use requiring slope installation or removal.
 

  

Functionality: include repairing of worn cracks or joints that hinder the movement of product.
 

  

Safety: including use identification lines, and floor profiling.
 

  
Life Expectancy: which include durability and temporary, short-term applications.
 		  
Hygiene; Cleanability is crucial for many industries
 		  

Project Scope: from local repairs to whole plant retrofits.

  


Your priorities are matched with your required conditions that include the following 

  • Confined   or  open areas
  • Hot  or  cold temperatures
  • Wet  or dry operating conditions
  • High  or  low humidity
  • Day  or  night installation
  • During production  or  shut-down time
  • Short  or  long installation window
  • High  or  low odour threshold
  • Noise tolerance
  • Dust tolerance

Applied then designs your floor system(s), based on the information yielded by the Floor Audit® and your FNP; a floor system tailored to fit your requirements.
