Floorcare's top of the class
October 1st 2007 Brapack's Xola Hyflex is a high gloss floor seal that is maintained by simply using a

Campbell College was built in the 1800s, it is now a listed
building and is set in a wooded campus of 100 acres, east of
Belfast.The College has had a problem maintaining the floor in
its prestigious main Assembly Hall, this is used by the school on a
daily basis. For years the floor had been polished with spirit-waxed
based cleaners – this caused many problems for the cleaning
manager,Trevor Arthur. He explained to local distributor,Anachem
that any contact with water or soft drinks caused the floor to turn
white and although he constantly burnished the floor, it never really
looked clean.
Joe Annetts from Anachem helped Trevor implement a new
cleaning programme which removed the need for floor polish,
stripping and repolishing. Xola Hyflex from Brapack is a high gloss
floor seal that is simply maintained by using a cleaner or a floor
maintainer – there is no need to coat it with a floor finish, so stripping
and re-finishing are not necessary.
The floor was first stripped with Xola Stripfree, a seal and polish
stripper which removed all the previous treatments including the
solvent based polishes from the floor.Three coats of water-based
Hyflex were then applied.
Campbell College is maintaining the floor using two of Brapack's
products: Xola Supercare and Xola Solaclean.The College is pleased
that the floor in its Assembly Hall now fully complements the
architecture surrounding it.
"Now the floor has been restored, it has greatly improved its
appearance. The maintenance costs associated with keeping it in
order have been reduced," says
cleaning manager Trevor Arthur.
