RSL provide floors and walls for high security prison facility

RSL (Resin Surfaces Limited) recently completed a prestigious project in conjunction with Main Contractors Carillion for The Greater Manchester Police. The project was a modern state of the art police station.

The floors and walls of the cells needed to adhere to a strict brief which focused on durability whilst providing a seamless finish. RSL specified wall coating Ecuclad for the walls and ceilings and Resuscreed Quartz for the floor areas.

Resucreed Quartz is a trowel applied, decorative epoxy resin floor screed, and was the ideal choice for the floors. It provides a durable and impact resistant surface which incorporates coloured aggregates and provides a decorative modern finish to the hard wearing and hygienic surface.

The walls and ceilings were coated in RSL’s Eculclad; a joint free fibre glass reinforced walling system which was moulded round the corners providing an easy to clean and hard wearing surface. Ecuclad has a strong finish due to a layer of fibreglass which is embedded within it; the fibreglass provides reinforcement and protection to the underlying wall. Both of the RSL products used are able to withstand an intensive cleaning regime which is a key requirement for custodial environments.

The end result was a successful specification of products which fully met the brief. The bespoke cells provided an easy to clean and hard wearing area suitable for the demanding environment of a prison.
