Mapei’s Decorative Flooring System Specified At The Green Room

A Mapei internal decorative floor system has been installed at The Green Room restaurant on London’s South Bank.

Designed by Benjamin Marks, The Green Room cost £740,000 to build. Three individual Mapei products were specified throughout the 150m2 restaurant area and all floor works were carried out by Polished Concrete Designs.Topcem, Mapei’s special hydraulic binder for producing fast-drying screeds, was specified as the base product due to its performance. Mapei’s Ultratop cementitious floor covering in Anthracite was applied to give the appearance of a polished concrete surface; this was chosen to complement the look of the rest of the restaurant’s interior. Mapei’s Ultratop Anthracite was also chosen due to its inherent high strength and excellent resistance to abrasion making it ideal for use in high traffic areas. All the joints in the floor were then sealed with Mapeflex PU30, a two-component, high-strength, thixotropic epox polyurethane sealant that was coloured to match the anthracite flooring.

The restaurant is situated next to Rambert Dance Studios and behind the National Theatre on London’s South Bank. The interior has been designed to provide a contemporary and airy atmosphere and features props and scenery recycled from National Theatre shows.
