Behind the evaluation of the flooring system for Svea Fastigheter's parking garage in Eskilstuna lay an uncompromising requirement for adhesion strength, particularly on moist concrete substrates. Moisture in concrete structures is one of the most common causes of floor coatings releasing and delaminating over time.

To verify the system's performance, a test area was laid out in the garage by SHS industrigolv in partnership with Stillströms. Subsequent pull-off adhesion tests on the moist substrate measured exceptionally high values of 7.43 MPa and 5.97 MPa. This proves a genuinely unique chemical and mechanical anchoring – far above the industry's standard requirement – securing the substrate ahead of the upcoming garage project.

Results

Why UQESH® PF Was Tested at Svea Fastigheter

Unique adhesion on a moist substrate (up to 7.43 MPa): The test results show that UQESH® PF cures and bonds extremely strongly even to moist concrete surfaces, without risk of blistering or delamination.
Professional execution in collaboration: Application and preparatory work were carried out by SHS industrigolv and Stillströms to ensure maximum technical quality.
Built for demanding garage environments: The system withstands chlorides from road salt, oil spills, heavy point loads and abrasive wear from vehicle traffic.
Future-proofed for property owners: The test area verifies that the system minimises maintenance costs and extends the service life of the concrete structure in the parking garage.
Bio-based: Waterborne castor oil technology contributes to the property's overall environmental profile.
Seamless membrane: Provides a completely joint-free barrier that prevents water and chlorides from penetrating and corroding the reinforcement in the slab.
Odour-free & safe: Near-zero emissions during application and curing, guaranteeing a safe working environment on an ongoing construction project.

UQESH® PF delivers industrial floors and coatings that set a new standard for adhesion, quality assurance and moisture resistance in modern parking garages.
