Specialist Fork lift Tyre Mark Removal Products
Rubber Tyre Marks caused by forklifts, tugs and even foot traffic are notoriously difficult to clean and remove as rubber is an ‘inert’ material and standard floor cleaning chemicals have no effect on it!
Rubber gloves and aprons are used to protect us the most dangerous & harshest of chemicals, so why would a standard floor cleaner be expected to work on rubber tyre marks bound into the surface of a concrete floor?
Tyre marks are created by the friction and interaction of a tyre or shoe with the floor, especially through turning and braking, where tyre temperatures can rise very quickly and leave a thin melted layer. These thin layers then start to build as rubber grips to rubber, and dirt and dust binds between these layers to be locked into the surface protected by the rubber but visible to the eye.
Even non-marking forklift tyres do not prevent tyre marks. Grey and White forklift tyres still melt and the actual rubber is more difficult to see visually, but the dirt bound between the layers is still visible making the floor just look dirty.
Historically we have seen many different solutions from the use of flammable solvents to ‘melt’ the rubber, to the use of metal ‘paint scrapers’ to try and peel the rubber from the floor. None are very effective and some extremely dangerous!!
Heavy Duty Rubber Tyre Mark Remover
Usually, if the floors have not been cleaned with a high quality floor cleaner such as our EN715 then tyre marks build to a level where a specific tyre mark cleaning chemical solution is required.
Our EN701 Heavy Duty Rubber Tyre Mark remover is a proven product which safely and effectively ‘liquifies’ the hard rubber and making removal easy and is used in many warehouses from Amazon to Tesco, Aldi to Silverstone racetrack!
It is pH Neutral and will not damage concrete or existing quality epoxy-based floor paints or safety line markings, making tyre mark removal much quicker and hassle-free.
EN701 can either be used manually for spot cleaning or in conjunction with an automated floor scrubber drier cleaning machine.
Common application areas are warehouse and industrial flooring, painted warehouse safety lines and pedestrian demarcation marking areas, where it is essential that these areas are clean and very visible and not hidden or obstructed by tyre marks or the build up of ‘rubber bound’ dirt.
EN701 is also commonly used for floor preparation prior to floor painting as if floor paints are applied to a floor that is covered with rubber residues then the paint cannot bind and interlink with the concrete floor and the paint becomes unstable.
