21 CFI CURATED Brombach + Gess BalustradeMove Product picks How can F. Ball and Co. Ltd.’s flooring adhesives make refurbishments easier? F. Ball and Co. Ltd.’s dual bond system for luxury carpet installations uses Styccobond F40 to create a peelable bond between the subfloor and underlay, carpets or other floor coverings to prevent them from moving laterally when subject to normal foot traffic. Fitters can use F. Ball’s adhesive to install the underlay and then use a permanent textile flooring adhesive, such as F. Ball’s F3 water-based rubber/resin adhesive, to secure the carpet. This ensures the floor covering will not ruck, move or lift throughout its working life. Meanwhile, the peelable bond makes sure that the floor coverings can be easily lifted and removed when they need replacing, without causing damage to the subfloor. This makes the refurbishment process quicker and easier. BalustradeMove is an outdoor railing system designed by marine glass bonding firm Brombach + Gess to allow shipowners to create multifunctional spaces and protect guests from the elements onboard their vessels. Crew members can lightly press on the upper edge of the glass panes of the balustrade to lift them to a height of approximately 1.9 metres from the ground to form a shield against the wind in outdoor areas. The panes can then be easily lowered back into their original position. The system does not require welding or electricity work and will be demonstrated by Brombach + Gess at Cruise Ship Interiors Design Expo Americas in Miami, USA, from 6-7 June 2023.
