A new floor was required to address both the operational needs of the gallery and to ensure compliance with current building regulations. It had to be designed with sufficient strength to support the weight of the heavy exhibits, as well as the durability to withstand ongoing foot traffic and wear.

To meet these demands, Ronafix Pre-packed 6-50mm was chosen as the ideal solution. This material was specified not only for its ability to be laid as a floating screed but also for its exceptional strength, which is essential to bear the substantial loads of the gallery’s valuable works of art. Additionally, its wear-resistant properties meant that the screed could be left uncovered, creating a clean, industrial aesthetic that provides a striking contrast to the colourful and intricate artwork displayed throughout the gallery.
