F. Ball expands its horizons at Domotex 2024


F. Ball and Co. Ltd. will continue to look beyond borders to showcase innovations to help flooring contractors around the globe achieve increasingly high standards of flooring installation at the world’s largest floorcovering exhibition.

The company is placing particular importance on the exhibition as an opportunity to exhibit product innovations to international audiences, as F. Ball export business manager Jonathan Goold explains: “While you can spend considerable effort deliberating over floorcovering selection, subfloor preparation and selecting the right adhesives has a major influence on the aesthetic appearance and longevity of installations. We’ll be looking to demonstrate this to a global audience at Domotex.”

“F. Ball manufacturers adhesives for almost every type of floorcovering, and we are increasingly looking to showcase our products to an international audience as we seek to expand into new territories, so Domotex is one of the most important events in the flooring industry calendar for us. The exhibition is a good opportunity to meet new and existing customers from around the world, and we hope to see as many people as possible at our stand.”

Taking centre stage at the show will be F. Ball’s new Stopgap 1600, a new fast-drying, fibre-reinforced smoothing compound that is formulated especially for use over underfloor heating systems.

Stopgap 1600 can be used to encapsulate electrical wired or water-fed underfloor heating and cooling systems installed over a wide range of internal subfloors in both domestic and commercial environments. It is walk-on hard from three hours after application and ready to receive floorcoverings in as little as 12 hours.

Representatives from the F. Ball sales, marketing and liaison teams will be on-hand throughout the exhibition to answer any questions that visitors may have about any of F. Ball’s products, including its newly launched innovations.
