Mr. Kevin Geraghty<br />
Ireland’s Specialists in <strong>Precast</strong> Wideslab Flooring<br />
Develop New Walling System<br />
In ten years, our company has succeeded in developing a substantial market niche for<br />
Wideslab Flooring. Flood Flooring’s philosophy is to fully exploit <strong>the</strong> advantages of mass<br />
production by dedicating ourselves to a single product line, complimented with accessories<br />
such as precast stairs and balconies. In response to customer requirements, and to take<br />
advantage of <strong>the</strong> substantial market share which Flood Flooring have achieved, <strong>the</strong><br />
company is currently introducing a new walling system based on <strong>the</strong> same mass production<br />
philosophy.<br />
Flood’s new modular precast walling system is produced in 2.4m widths and can be<br />
delivered to site with very short lead-in times. It is quick to erect and can be lifted by<br />
standard tower crane or mobile crane and is also highly competitive when compared with<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r more traditional forms of construction.<br />
Flood Flooring have a dedicated in-house design facility to provide back-up to Consulting<br />
Engineers and designers. It is this commitment and our ability to supply large quantities of<br />
product at short notice which have been key factors in winning large contracts. Our<br />
reputation has been built on <strong>the</strong> successful completion of some of <strong>the</strong> country’s largest<br />
projects including, <strong>the</strong> Dundrum Shopping Centre, <strong>the</strong> Pavilion Shopping Centre Swords,<br />
Beaumont Hospital Extension, <strong>the</strong> new St.Vincent’s Hospital and most recently <strong>the</strong> new<br />
Athlone Town Shopping Centre. Flood Flooring are also specialists in high density<br />
residential developments.<br />
