Nestled deep within the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of eastern France lies Automation Vénissieux – a huge outlet containing many world leading automotive brands and their showrooms.
In May 2016, Jaguar Land Rover opened the doors to their new showroom. However, by March local suppliers were unable to fulfil their requirements for their resin bound paving. In turn, they contacted SureSet and Dural. Within weeks, both companies were able to work together to create a stunning resin bound paving complete with bespoke premium movement joints.
A luxury car manufacturer with a luxurious eye for detail
Dural quickly set to work to create the premium movement joints required for the installation. The speckled infill had to match the SureSet natural aggregate resin bound paving – Norwegian Pearl. Dural are able to colour match their range of expansion joints to any colour in the RAL range, and with the added speckled effect the joints would blend seamlessly with the resin bound flooring.
The movement joints were laid at the end of the gate tracks, directly above the subfloor joints, where they provide effective stress relief and movement protection. Here, the robust 15mm aluminium based profiles are designed to cope with heavy stresses and then distribute them evenly between the subfloor and resin bound floor covering. The movement joints exceed BS5385 therefore Architects and Specifiers are given confidence that they are fit for purpose and will protect the integrity and aesthetics of the seamless resin bound paving.
