QUALITY IS OUR JOB #1

Dear Sirs, The Amepox Company Ltd was established in 1988 and its staff was based mainly on the former High Technical University of Lodz personnel. From the very beginning, our activity has been focused on manufacturing special chemical resistant materials for building and construction industry applications. The characteristic feature of this sectors is extremely high level of requirements set for products on offer. These requirements are set by Standards as well as directly by end-users. The Amepox Company main specjalization is production of several different types of flooring materials, especially for making selfleveling floors with very difficult application generally for industrial purposes, as for example: Industry reinforced flooring materials for the highes mechanical treatments. Industry flooring materials with the highest resistance for abrasion treatments. Industry flooring materials for the highes chemical resistance. ESD type of flooring materials. Thick type flooring with anti spark properties. Industry flooring materials with anti slippering propertis, etc. All types of floors with Ampox materials can be offered with thick or thin (with exception of anti spark type of floor) layers and with several different optionons: painted, multilayer floors etc. All our floors comply with the highest mechanical and chemical parameters. Our production is based mainly on the highest quality raw materials (epoxide resins, curing agents, modifiers etc). The additional advantage of our products is the fact that we can offer a complex range of products. You will find all types of materials necessary for making a chosen type of floor. Beginning with priming paints, modelling pastes for concrete repairs, expansion joint plastics, plastics for self-supporting floors, and finally surface coating materials e.g. painted floors, selflevelling floors, reinforced with nylon-glass nets laminated floors and floors spread with smoothing trowels and smoothed mechanically. Since all our products are designed to be compatible with each other, they are all based on one raw-material group, which guarantees that there will be no ply separation during the exploitation of surfaces made of our materials. Additionally, we also offer chemical resistant cements and lutes as well as finishing materials and decorative acrylic plasters for inside and outside use. Now, after many years of activity, the AMEPOX Company is one of the biggest in Poland manufacturer of floor materials with the highest quality. The AMEPOX Ltd has highly qualified technical staff and well equipped Control as well as Research and Development Laboratories, we also have our own production plant with very high level of production capacity. For more information, You are invited to visit our homepage in the Internet: http://www.amepox.com.pl. We co-operate in realisation of contracts together with many strong and reliable Construction Companies of Polish and foreign origin. We are focused on quality in our production, according to the principle: QUALITY IS OUR JOB #1 Our personnel is entirely at Your disposal, with regard to additional explanations, change or complementation of the final idea of Your Plant s floor; during the project stage as well as during the actual realisation of the project. 1

With compliments we remain, hoping for establishment of long term co-operation based on mutual benefits. QUALITY IS OUR JOB #1 Our attempts with regard to quality and repeatability of our products were appreciated by Experts and the Jury of the 1 st Łódź Proponuje (Lodz Offers) Competition in 1994. The Amepox Ltd was awarded then, one of first prizes for self-levelling floor PLASTIPOX 5FI. Basic criteria of the competition are novelty of presented solution and its technical parameters, quality of the product, repeatability of production, compliance with Standards. Considering the strong competition, this award certainly constitutes a real proof of our products quality. 2

PLASTIPOX PRIMING MATERIALS - 5P series One of the most important conditions for many years of fail safe exploitation of plastic floors is their complete adhesion to a surface, which usually is a concrete layer. Only complete integration of used plastic material with the ground floor results in floor s capability to carryover such great mechanical load as these designed to be the ground floor s bearing capacity. The physicochemical parameters of prime coat materials should give access to easy penetration into close to surface layers of porous concrete ground floor, bounding weaker fractions, closing micropores in concrete s structure, and by means of that, preparing the concrete s surface for application of actual floor. At the same time, the plastic can not contain any concrete oxidising ingredients that could impair concrete s mechanical parameters The basic line of priming plastics for most of applications consists of: PLASTIPOX 5P - elasticised priming plastic. PLASTIPOX 5PD - penetrating priming plastic. PLASTIPOX 5PD-L - deep penetration priming plastic. PLASTIPOX 5PD-w - priming plastic of enhanced ambient humidity tolerance. For more exact technical information and data concerning application details, please contact directly our company. Notice: Beside these standard types we offer You special versions of priming materials e.g.: with high tolerance for humid and lightly wet surfaces (after the process of concrete lixiviation is finished), lightly greasy surfaces, low ambient temperature during the installation work etc. SMOOTH JOINTLESS FLOORING COATINGS - 5FI series Smooth flooring coatings are a special group of materials, which after application create a coherent and even floor s usable area. These types of materials parameters are practically permanent within a very wide range of temperatures as well as exposed to different types of external hazards. The application possibilities of these plastics are enormous. To begin with simple social-service back-up facilities and protective coatings in multi-storeyed garages, up to production plants and warehouses designed for maximum bearing capacity and resistant to all types of hazards, to finish with coatings designed for explosive conditions rooms. Below you will find basic types of flooring plastics from the PLASTIPOX 5FI series: PLASTIPOX 5FI self levelling plastic for thick layer floors. PLASTIPOX 5FI-m plastic for thin layer painted floors. PLASTIPOX 5FI-P plastic for thick layer trowel spread floors. 3

PLASTIPOX 5FI-s modification of PLASTIPOX 5FI-P plastic (same technical and operational parameters but increased raw material purity) - for thick layer floors in the highest health standard environments (hospital, day nursery, sanatorium, etc.). The available colours for each of the above mentioned types are practically unlimited after prior consultation with AMEPOX Ltd. The 5FI series materials create a coherent, jointless surface of high resistance to different typical chemical substances and exploitation factors. These types of floors are easy to be kept clean and are very convenient for daily maintenance. Prior to installation of the 5FI-type smooth, joint-less floor, one of priming mixes has to be applied on the concrete s surface. JOINT-LESS, ANTISTATIC ESD Type FLOORING The antistatic flooring plastics constitute materials group of growing importance due to increasing Safety and Fire requirements. Moreover, due to the appearance of new industry branches which demand free of surface (static) charges environment e.g. for production of electronic elements, computers or in computer control rooms. Antistatic and spark-free floors become more and more important, not only in case of flammable and explosive products storing, as well as for their production. Furthermore, for such applications like paint shop, production with the use of flammable materials, e.g. furniture, windows, fibreboards, chemical substances, solvents, varnishes and other. Our company offers two types of materials with antistatic properties, both will be applied on surface covered by copper self stick tapes or priming plastic PLASTIPOX ESD 100SL (conductive paint): PLASTIPOX ESD 5FI-P material for thick layer floor plastic. PLASTIPOX ESD 5FI-m material for thin layer floor plastic. In order to apply an antistatic floor a multi layer structure is required, as follows: 4

JOINT-LESS, ANTIBACTERIAL Nano Type FLOORING Joint less floor material with trade name PLASTIPOX 5FI-nano with antibacterial properties because of silver powder additive - in this case atomic size of grains.. Due to bactericidal action of silver is connected with surface influence, it is obvious that the most interesting for that purpose is the silver with the smallest possible size. It can be imagined that the ball with some dimensions (i.e. the golf ball) is divided in mind to millions parts. It is still a ball of course with this same weight and volume - but the overall area of the divided parts is many, many times bigger than before. Right now, nanotechnology - the newest science trend - allows producing the smallest sized for many different materials - silver for example. That is why due to the big area the silver powder is used with the smallest possible (today) dimensions 3-8 nanometers, which causes that its active area is expanded to the biggest possible size with connection with the highest quantity of silver parts in the volume unit. The fact increases significantly the antibacterial action. The example of PLASTIPOX 5FI-nano material uses includes among others the following special applications: Antibacterial floors for hospitals, clinics, nurseries purposes, Antibacterial floors in the production-storage rooms at medicines and drugs, Antibacterial floors in production food areas, Antibacterial floors in food storehouses in stores, discounts, etc. The presented applications include only the typical examples of PLASTIPOX 5FI-nano use. These materials once polymerized (hardened) practically do not change its properties during time passing and in wide range of temperatures (-40 C to 110 C). It is one of the mos t important features of that type materials, what provides its safe use inside buildings even at high local temperatures (due to sun operation through the skylights), in refrigerating chambers and in the extremely difficult conditions at simultaneous keeping of all the material advantages. JOINT-LESS, GRANULAR FLOORING COATINGS of BDE type. A group of materials, very important with regard to colour and composition possibilities are joint-less floors, made from coloured quartz of varied and agreed upon granulation. These floors are designed to be anti-slipping because they are a selected quartz grains mixture with epoxide or acrylic binding agent (structural plaster). The Amepox Company offers several types of granular plastics, namely: PLASTIPOX BDE standard granulation plastic - 0.5 1.0 mm, PLASTIPOX BDE gr ; for stairs - granulation 1.0 2.0 mm, 5

PLASTIPOX BDE MINI PAVEMENT for driveways - granulation 3.0 5.0 mm, PLASTIPOX BDE ACRILIC PLASTER - granulation 0.5 1.0 or 1.0 2.0 mm. Installation of granular type floors is similar to the procedure of floating. First you have to spread a proper layer of mixed PLASTIPOX DZK or BDE plastic, upon concrete surface covered with priming plastics and then you have to make floating with smoothing trowel for even and coherent surface (see photo). The floors made from granular plastics offer a vast range of colours and possible combinations (e.g., Company s logo on the floor, information signs, etc.) as well as antislipping surface structure. CONCRETE GROUND FLOOR S REPAIR PREPARATORY PLASTICS. As it was already mentioned in every case, proper ground floors preparation prior to the installation of actual floor is the key for achieving best possible parameters and aesthetic appearance. Especially, with regard to the fact, that renovation of old and damaged surfaces is a very common case. Application of traditional repair technology, removal of old concrete, rubble disposal and installation of new concrete ground floor is an extremely long and expensive (although effective) method. Application of popular self-levelling mixes is not very effective, due to the fact that hardness and mechanical parameters of these levelling mixes are different than the surface mixes parameters. Consequently, these levelling mixes crack under high mechanical load, causing damages to actual floor coatings. We have worked out several types of regenerating plastics for immediate ground floor repairs. These plastics are used only for filling holes, cavities and levelling the actual surface. They are manufactured from the same epoxide resin family and are fully compatible with all other PLASTIPOX plastics, which greatly decreases the risk of floor ply separation during its exploitation. 6

EXPANSION JOINT MIXES, CHEMICAL RESISTANT MORTARS AND LUTES To complement the range of plastics offered by Amepox Company we present a group of materials for filling expansion joint incisions, materials of masonry mortars consistence for e.g chemical resistant glazed tiles assembly or for lutes and gap filling. These products ere additionally reinforced with appropriate fillers of fibrous structure, which makes them extremely resistant to mechanical hazards.
