Over 650 beds and more than 1400 employees: Johanniter Hospital and Waldkrankenhaus together form one of the most important healthcare providers in the Bonn region. The Rhine Wing of the Johanniter Hospital was opened in 1955 and the floors were in need of considerable renovation. Hospital floors are subject to extreme stress. Bed transport alone, including the patient, weighs about 300 kg, and the increased use of disinfectants leads to cracks in the floors.
Replacing the floor would have been a very costly affair and would have further disrupted the hospital's workflow. With Dr. Schutz's floor remake system, 50% of the costs were saved and over 98% of CO2 emissions were reduced. The disruption to operations was reduced to a minimum.
With the Prep & Repair repair system, more severely damaged areas in the floor (including very deep scratches and holes) could be levelled. A basic cleaning served to remove old maintenance layers as well as deep-seated dirt.
The prepared floor was painted in a colour chosen by the customer. The colours were selected in advance to match an overall room and floor concept. After applying the base colours with PU Color in the skirting area and the entire surface, chips were sprinkled in to break up the room's appearance.
Individual decors embellish corridor areas. Coloured squares were chosen here. The final touch is the transparent on-top lacquer finish with PU Anticolor. This permanent seal is particularly hard-wearing, resistant to chemicals and abrasion. The floor is thus hermetically sealed, no joints remain open, which demonstrably reduces the growth of germs on the surface by 99.5%.
With floor remake and PU Design by essential, time-consuming and cost-intensive work steps can be saved. Thanks to the easy application and fast drying, downtimes in the building are minimised. From an ecological point of view, PU Design is also clearly the first choice. Unnecessary environmental pollution, as with a new installation, is avoided because the previous floor covering can continue to be used as the basis for the new PU sealant. The new surfaces are dirt-repellent and resistant to chemicals.

The floor remake system sets new economic and ecological standards for existing floors, from which property operators and nature benefit. It ensures minimal downtime and avoids dirt and noise. Floors can be renovated in one to two days. Where immediate use of the renovated floor is necessary (e.g. in the health & care sector or in industry), this is made possible by the use of special UV technologies. Another advantage: the many design individualisation options, which are significantly cheaper to realise than with new purchases. Here, certain areas can be marked, colour worlds and signposts can contribute to orientation, and logos and motifs can guide through objects even better. Finally, the floor and its joints are permanently protected from damage caused by mechanical or chemical stresses with a 2K permanent seal, which considerably improves cleanability and hygiene. Thanks to hermetically sealed joints, the formation of germs and bacteria is demonstrably reduced by over 99% with Dr. Schutz permanent sealers (source Eurofins). The On Top Lacquer is also slip-resistant (optionally R9, R10 or R11 according to DIN 51130), suitable for castor chairs (according to DIN 14085), and resistant to sweat and saliva.When renovating a floor with the floor remake system from Dr. Schutz, approx. 50% of the costs are saved compared to laying a new floor. In addition, maintenance cleaning after the renovation is much easier and cheaper. Annual basic cleaning with subsequent re-care is no longer necessary. Furthermore, floor remake is not only economical, but also particularly sustainable. Old floors are valuable resources for us. Instead of disposing of them, floor remake reconditions them as good as new. In addition, large amounts of water, chemicals and energy are saved in the following years.Calculation example for the savings potential: Using the coloured varnish followed by a solvent-free on-top varnish (2 coats) on an existing floor (which was previously coated conventionally with polymer) with a working area of 1000 m² within 10 years (average service life) results in the following values: 55% less costs, 99000 l of water, 830 kWh of electricity, 680 kg of CO2 emissions, 2000 l of chemicals. (Source: FIGR)floor remake is a system for the sustainable renovation of PVC, lino, rubber, stone, epoxy and other floors. The system consists of coloured and transparent permanent sealers on a 2K water base and works in two or three steps: 1. the floor is thoroughly cleaned, sanded and prepared for the subsequent sealing 2. if the design is to be retained, the floor is only painted transparent. If, on the other hand, a completely new floor design is to be created, the floor is first coated with a permanent coloured sealant. Numerous techniques allow for an individual design. Finally, the floor is permanently protected on top with a special sealant, the world's only solvent- and isocyanate-free transparent floor lacquer.
