The Background
Built by Prime Constructions for AHG – Australia’s largest motoring group – the multi-million-dollar Castle Hill Holden dealership is one of Sydney’s most modern and well-appointed Holden/HSV dealerships. Together with its extensive showroom, sales and administration offices, spare parts store, and external vehicle display area, the dealership’s state-of-the-art workshop features the latest in diagnostic and service equipment. Covering an area of more than 1,300m2, the workshop features over twenty vehicle service bays, together with dedicated wash bays and a vehicle inspection area.
The Challenge
In large car dealerships, the workshop is essentially a ‘second showroom’ - it really reflects the overall quality of the business. Selecting the right floor for workshop facilities such as this is critical. Indeed, selecting the wrong floor can prove to be extremely costly – both in the short and long term. Importantly, choosing the right floor is about so much more than just having a good-looking floor. Vehicle workshop floors need to be resistant to chemicals and spills (including hydrocarbons), highly trafficable, and hard-wearing enough to withstand the daily rigors of a tough workshop environment.
Our Solution
In keeping with their focus on maximizing quality, safety, and aesthetics across the entire site, Prime Constructions specified the use of MasterTop 1080 from Master Builders Solutions for the workshop floors and walls. Based on a high solids, two-component epoxy resin system, MasterTop 1080 provided excellent resistance to both chemical and mechanical damage, making it ideal for use in a wide range of facilities, including workshops, warehouses, car parks, and floors in production facilities and processing plants. Suitable for use on both vertical and horizontal substrates, MasterTop 1080 is supplied in a pre-packaged and proportioned kit form and is available in a wide range of colours. The walls of the Castle Hill Holden workshop were finished in Master Builders Solutions Blue Grey colour, while the floors were finished in an attractive Master Builders Solutions Koala Grey colour. In addition, the floor in the wash bays also features a slip-resistant finish for added safety.
