MAPECOAT TNS RACE TRACK

MAPEI has announced a new generation of TNS products that go beyond the traditional application of acrylic products for sports and extend usage into landscaping. The first of these products is MAPECOAT TNS RACE TRACK, a single component acrylic resin-based, a rapid film-forming product with selected fillers in water dispersion specifically formulated in MAPEI Research & Development laboratories and used to form a durable coating on floors subject to a high level of footfall and/or access to vehicles in sports facilities, such as stadiums.?

Mapecoat TNS RACE TRACK has been specially formulated to protect and colour:

• concrete surfaces in areas subject to a high level of footfall, such as spectator stand in sports facilities.
• surfaces made from concrete, architectural decorative concrete, self-locking blocks.?
• the surface of bitumen conglomerate, such as at racetracks.?
• the surface of vehicular access/exit routes in sports facilities, such as ramps and parking areas and kerbs on car and motorcycle racetracks.?
• cycle lanes/tracks and pedestrian areas and areas accessible to light vehicles.
• wet areas subjected to heavy footfall, such as around the edges of swimming pools.?

Thanks to the selected fillers used in its special formulation, Mapecoat TNS RACE TRACK may be used as a finishing coat on external flooring requiring a high level of slip-resistance, such as access and exit routes in sports facilities in general (ramps, stairs, etc.). Unlike a simple colouring system, MAPECOAT TNS RACE TRACK technology allows highly durable, non-slip surfaces to be created that maintain their surface roughness over the years, including in wet conditions.?

The mechanical properties of the film, combined with its high resistance to agents which are potentially damaging the appearance and durability or are harmful (such as UV, oil and fuel, etc.), also make MAPECOAT TNS RACE TRACK an excellent solution for coating large surfaces, such as those that need to be treated periodically to provide enduring, long-lasting protection.?

Mapecoat TNS RACE TRACK is particularly suitable for protecting substrates: in fact, in the case of concrete flooring, the coloured coating limits the effect of agents that could damage or shorten the life of the surface, such as carbon dioxide and moisture, thereby making the structure more durable. From an aesthetic point of view, the wide range of colours available, along with the other shades available using the MAPEI ColorMap automatic colouring system, means that personalised colours may also be easily created.
