Ritec Celebrates 25 Years of Low-Maintenance
Solutions
Ritec is
demonstrating at the
London Surface
Design Show its unique
and innovative solutions to make
clear or sandblasted glass,
aluminium, stainless steel and
powder coated surfaces Low-M (Low-Maintenance),
easy-to-clean and stain resistant...
Ritec will
also be celebrating 25 years of
major successes using its technology
on building facades, interior
glazing in leisure centre or office
partitioning, luxury cruise ships
and many other applications
worldwide.
The
company renovates stained and faded
surfaces to their original 'as-new'
condition when regular cleaning is
no longer effective, and protects
them to prevent further damage. The
protection can also be applied for
glass in the factory to provide
protection during construction. This
means reduced costs for building
contractors avoiding difficult final
clean, delayed certification on
handover and costly remedial work or
glass replacement. It also means
reduced maintenance costs for
building owners and occupiers, the
prevention of surface degradation
and difficult maintenance over time,
and the preservation of high
specification glazing performance.
During construction,
splatter from concrete,
plaster and mortar,
cement dust and other
construction materials
stain unprotected glass
and are difficult or
impossible to remove.
Inevitably, unprotected
surfaces become
contaminated over time
by building run-off,
limescale and pollution,
resulting in a faded
appearance as well as
costly and difficult
cleaning. Ritec has
provided solutions to
those problems to
architects, building or
glazing contractors and
facility managers on
prestigious projects
including the Lloyd's of
London building, many
high-rises in Sydney,
Thailand's new Bangkok
airport, and more
recently the Shanghai
World Finance Center, or
Mori building, set to be
the tallest building in
the world upon
completion next year.
Visitors at this year's
show can see and feel
the difference of both
ClearShield and Ritecoat
compared to untreated
surfaces with a range of
demonstrations and
samples on the stand.
Also at the show will be
Ritec's new Glass
Renovation and
Protection brochure,
which explains the
benefits of the
ClearShield System to
architects, interior
designers and specifiers.
Ritec have an Onsite
service and is able to
renovate and protect
surfaces that have
already been installed.
With 25 years of
experience and success,
Ritec have the expertise
to provide solutions to
surface protection
problems.
The company also offer a
RIBA-approved CPD
seminar, 'Glass Surface
Protection Technology'.
The seminar introduces
the technology
underpinning glass
protection, as well as
expanding on the
implications of sound
maintenance and
aftercare. |
