what made you choose a deer for your fursona?

It's a long story that I am all too happy to tell!

I first attended Midwest Furfest in 2018, after years of being curious about it. My boyfriend at the time was a member of the Neo-Futurists Theater, and the Neo's had a longstanding relationship with the MFF community. They perform their flagship show (Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind, later rebranded as The Infinite Whale) there every year, and when the theater company's former founder attempted to steal their show name/copyright following his ousting due to sexual assault allegations, MFF really came through to offer considerable moral support.

There was lots of goodhearted joking about the furry community within that theater space, and I'd always been curious about furries and a supporter of them in heart if not in fact, and so I finally decided one year to tag along, see my boyfriend performing there, and walk around the convention floor and visit the dealer's den during my down time.

I absolutely LOVED IT. I was completely blown away by the artistry of the suits and the playful spirit of the suiters. I ran into a few friends there, outing them as furries to me, and we grew closer. I also took notice of some teal, sparkly resin antlers while I was in the Dealer's Den:

I snapped those things up and put them on immediately. Some stranger started to pet me right away (which is technically a convention consent violation, and should *not* be done, but I personally was the opposite of troubled by being treated in this way) and I was hooked.

I had always had a "thing" for antlers and horns since playing the PS2 game Ico back in the early 2000's. The young male protagonists horns representing an unwanted appendage and a visible "curse" was very appealing to me... as a boy who had been saddled with two very unwanted appendages of my own. (trangsender). I also have had many very magical encounters with deer in Ohio and Pennsylvania where I grew up. As a skiddish bottomy freak whose caused a lot of car accidents, a prey animal that also has the power to kill people in vehicles seemed plenty apt. So when I found some antlers to wear, it seemed like a natural enough fit for a potential fursona.

Then my friend @jettvector designed my fursona, using the teal antlers as a jumping off point. (this art has his old watermark on it, but he goes by jettvector now. commission him!):

Now that I had a friend-assigned fursona and was officially a furry, I ran with it, and began commissioning some art that further refined my image of the character:

this is from 9inko on Instagram

this one is from @heresvix, who specializes in deer

and this one is from @murgzt . I am currently having a partial fursuit of this iteration of the character made by Daring Duck Designs!! :0

A few things that I love about my sona's design: I love that his ears are big and really stick out, as my ears do the same, I love that he has a spot reflecting my monroe piercing, I love that deers are spotted in general, which can allow me to recast my own bacne scars in a more positive light, and i love that his greenish teal skin reflects my own olive complection (which I used to get a lot of weird comments about as a kid and felt self conscious about).

I also accumulated some gear in the meantime that allowed me to better embody my deersona, who I now call DD (which stands for Deer Devon, Docile Deer, Devon Dawn, my former DD tits, or any numer of potential things haha)

I have become a little bit more of a furry with each passing year, and it wouldn't have been possible without the hard work and creativity of so many people within the fandom, many of whom are beloved friends. <3 That's part of what makes it so special. Thanks for asking!

AN EMPIRE DIVIDED! The Inside Story of How GE CEO Larry Culp Dismantled a 131-Year-Old American Giant.

— By Brooke Sutherland and Ryan Beene | March 20, 2024 | Businessweek | The Big Take

Big sheets of white paper line the perimeter of a meeting room at the General Electric Co. factory in Beavercreek, Ohio. Each sheet is scribbled on with markers and covered with neon Post-it notes outlining the steps needed to produce the tubes and ducts that will eventually be assembled into a jet engine.

The vibe is more elementary school science fair than American industrial icon. But the simplicity is the point. Determining the layout for the Beavercreek facility was tricky: The revamped plant opened last year, combining components of production that had previously been spread out across eight different sites. To figure out the best setup, plant leaders built a replica of furnaces, tube benders and welding booths out of cardboard boxes. That visual, along with the Post-it notes describing production steps such as “brazing,” “bending” and “trimming,” makes it easier to identify and root out manufacturing inefficiencies. The exercise also helps show visiting GE executives how the whole thing works.

About 250 managers from around the world have gathered here in the Cincinnati area, which will be the headquarters of GE Aerospace once the conglomerate completes its slow-moving breakup in early April. One stated goal of the executive retreat is to set a culture for the soon-to-be-standalone company. “Culture can’t be declared,” says Farah Borges, who oversees GE Aerospace’s assembly, test and maintenance operations. “You have to build it.” Some declaring is still apparently necessary, because the team spent the previous day at an event space a few miles away doing just that.

But under Chief Executive Officer Larry Culp, no leadership confab is complete without a gemba walk. Gemba in Japanese means “actual place,” as in the actual place where a product is made. It’s essentially a tour of operations with a heavy emphasis on Q&A with the factory staff. The practice is central to lean manufacturing, an influential operations philosophy developed by Toyota Motor Corp. that Culp has championed at GE.

Factory floor visits aren’t a radical idea for an industrial company, but GE didn’t always do them this way. The company used to place more emphasis on polishing a PowerPoint presentation than on drilling into the details of manufacturing workflows, says Russell Stokes, the head of commercial jet engines and services, who’s been at GE for more than 25 years. Somewhere between the wrong-way financial bets that blew up in the 2008 economic crisis and a huge, disastrous acquisition of energy assets from Alstom SA in 2015, GE, with its persistent mindset that anyone with an MBA could run any business, forgot that it’s a manufacturer at heart.

When Culp became CEO in 2018, GE was far too big and complicated for its own good, and the company’s businesses weren’t bringing in enough money to support its sky-high debts. “We were at risk of not making payroll, in a manner of speaking,” he says. He managed to pay down more than $100 billion of the debt through a series of well-timed divestitures. He dismantled GE Capital, its investment arm, largely untangling the company from a financial albatross. And then, in 2021, he announced that GE—the quintessential American conglomerate, which at one point or another sold washing machines, credit cards, plastic resins and TV advertising slots for NBC’s Super Bowl broadcasts—was breaking up. None of those efforts would’ve been as successful, and perhaps wouldn’t have even been possible, if Culp hadn’t tightened up GE’s operations and turned key businesses into stable, cash-generating entities that could stand on their own.

Today, GE’s stock is near a seven-year high. GE HealthCare Technologies Inc., which split off in 2023, is up about 50% from its debut. The final piece is the electric-grid, gas-power and wind-turbine business, which will become its own standalone company called GE Vernova on April 2.

In one sense, Culp is restoring GE to its original identity as a maker of stuff. But he’s also the guy dismantling a monument to American capitalism. From its inception as an outlet for Thomas Edison to commercialize the lightbulb through the era of rapid globalization embodied by Jack Welch, GE practically swallowed entire industries. It loaned planes to companies and money to real estate developers; for a time it even owned a large chunk of Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream. Most of that is gone now. Culp divested the aircraft leasing arm, biopharmaceutical assets and the remnants of GE’s oil and gas operations and saw through sales of its locomotive and lightbulb units. Even the GE name is on loan. GE appliances are made and sold by China’s Haier Smart Home Co. The new GE will just be a manufacturer of jet engines, essentially, with a few random money pits left over from the old conglomerate, like insurance for elder care and a Polish mortgage business. “We constantly debated what the right structure was,” says Ed Garden, a GE board member since 2017. “But the first order of business was fixing the underlying businesses.”

On the gemba walk, Culp and his aerospace deputies stop to meet with the plant’s lean manufacturing leader, Cem Salahifar, who launches into an overview of the factory’s operations. He describes the facility’s transition from a single, giant furnace—known in manufacturing parlance as a monument—to a bunch of smaller ones spread out around the factory floor. This eliminates the need for employees to shuttle components back and forth and stand around waiting for the heating process to complete. Turnaround times for this part of the production process dropped to 30 minutes from four hours. Culp interjects: The team should appreciate how meaningful this change was, he says, for improving efficiency. He then asks them to find ways to rethink the monuments in their own factories. “We like to tear down monuments,” Culp says.

General Electric Through the Years

The historic American company amassed a sprawling portfolio that at one time or another included locomotives, washing machines, insurance, ­lightbulbs, MRI machines, credit cards, real estate and the television ­network NBC.

To be CEO of GE is to be compared with the late Jack Welch. For most of his two-decade reign, Welch made the company bigger, more valuable and more profitable. But the sun began to set on the age of the conglomerate by the time he retired in 2001, and soon other industrial giants were breaking up. Post-Welch CEOs at GE found themselves trying to explain why it made sense to be big for the sake of being big. Jeff Immelt, Welch’s handpicked successor, talked up the benefits of the “GE Store,” a shared repository of technological tools that the whole company could pull off the shelf. In reality, there was no good reason why one company needed to sell MRI machines, jet engines and wind turbines. Even worse, GE’s voluminous sprawl left too many places for problems to hide.

One of the biggest problems was GE Capital, which helped fuel stock growth during the Welch years but proved to be a time bomb. GE had loaded up on debt to support its ventures in corporate lending, real estate, credit cards, mortgages and insurance. When the economic crisis arrived in 2008, GE Capital had more than $500 billion in assets and almost as much debt, which made it the largest financial company in the US that wasn’t technically a bank. As customers worldwide defaulted on loan payments and investors lost their appetite for risk, GE turned to Warren Buffett and the federal government for financial support. Immelt cut GE’s dividend for the first time since the Great Depression. He later sold off huge chunks of GE Capital, but it continued to haunt his successor, John Flannery, who in 2018 disclosed a $15 billion hole in a long-term-care insurance business Immelt had been unable to fully get rid of. The timing couldn’t have been worse: Flannery had cut the dividend two months earlier, to some shareholders’ dismay, and with the gas-power business in a slump and fewer GE Capital assets, there just wasn’t enough money from its operations to keep handing out such generous payments to investors.

GE’s stock was in free fall in 2018, and Flannery overhauled the board. One of the new directors was Culp. A graduate of and former senior lecturer at Harvard Business School, he’d previously been the CEO of Danaher Corp., a onetime industrial conglomerate in its own right that’s idolized by investors for its operational rigor. (Danaher eventually broke up, starting in 2016 with the spinoff of the industrial products company Fortive Corp., shortly after Culp left.)

Culp’s Message: “Everybody Around The Boardroom, Don’t Panic”

Flannery announced a plan to spin off GE’s health-care business in June 2018, but such a wholesale breakup quickly became untenable. The company couldn’t afford it: The remaining operations wouldn’t have generated enough cash to allow GE to pay off its mountain of debt. “We could not spin health care without putting everything fundamentally at risk,” Culp says.

GE’s directors asked Culp if he wanted to run the company. He turned them down—twice, he says—but an August 2018 visit to GE’s gas-power operations in Atlanta began to change his mind. The place was a mess, he tells Bloomberg Businessweek. “We were managing the business in a way that was probably 180 degrees from the way we ran things at Danaher,” he says. But Culp saw a path to fix GE’s operations. His message: “Everybody around the boardroom, don’t panic.”

GE directors offer a bingo card’s worth of MBA-speak to describe how rough the situation was. Tom Horton, former CEO of American Airlines, says he and Culp were both “eyes wide open” when they joined the board together in 2018: “Once we got under the hood, the challenges were more substantial than maybe we anticipated.”

Two months after his visit to Atlanta, Culp was named CEO. In short order, he slashed the dividend to $0.01 a share and killed the plan to spin off health care. Instead, Culp brokered a deal to sell GE’s biopharmaceutical unit to his former employer Danaher. GE received $21 billion in cash for the business, which makes equipment and materials used to manufacture drugs, and offloaded $400 million in pension obligations to Danaher. The transaction was completed in March 2020, about three weeks after the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic brought air travel to a halt, creating an existential challenge for the company’s jet engine business. “I don’t know what would have happened if we hadn’t closed that deal,” Culp says.

GE directors thought the pandemic had made Culp’s job harder, and they wanted to give their CEO another reason to stick with it. In August 2020, the board altered the terms of Culp’s compensation package to give him more time to reach performance targets for a one-time stock bonus and make it meaningfully easier for him to have access to the top payout of about $230 million. Shareholders representing a majority of voting stock opposed the pay deal, but their vote was nonbinding, and the board had already approved the changes anyway. Culp accessed the top tier of the equity grant in July 2023, and the shares will vest next year unless he retires before then. (GE later curbed other aspects of Culp’s compensation.) “We were securing Larry’s leadership for a longer period of time, and that’s proven to be certainly in shareholders’ interest,” Horton says.

There are parallels between Culp and Welch, a company legend who was also legendarily well-compensated. The underlying principles of the lean manufacturing philosophy Culp preaches aren’t all that different from Welch’s cult of Six Sigma, another corporate dogma focused on measuring the rate of operational defects and eliminating inefficiencies. But the two are otherwise very different. Welch’s habit of ranking employees by performance and summarily firing the bottom 10% created a culture of mistrust. Employees who survived layoffs started to think they were the smartest people in the industry, a mentality that persisted after Welch retired and GE began to fade.

Culp has been programming a new mantra into his subordinates, adapted from his time at Danaher: We’re not perfect. “You’ll have some home runs, but you don’t need them every day,” says Jim Lico, who worked for Culp at Danaher and is now president and CEO of Fortive. “No one is perfect.” That kind of talk might’ve gotten a Welch-era executive fired, but it’s part of Culp’s belief in continuous improvement that his team routinely parrots.

This often manifests with seemingly small changes that can make a big impact on productivity over time. In one instance, GE reduced the distance a part must travel around its plant in Greenville, South Carolina, by about 3 miles, says Scott Strazik, the CEO of the soon-to-be-spun-out energy business GE Vernova. Even something as small as reorganizing the toolboxes used by turbine repair technicians can make a big difference. “There’s a long way to go,” Strazik says. GE Aerospace is trying to get its many factories to coordinate more with one another and with the teams that handle contract reviews and other back-office tasks. That process isn’t “perfect,” even if it has improved, says Kayla Ciotti, materials and planning leader at GE Aerospace. “Ten years ago, we had brick walls. Five years ago, we had screen doors,” she says. “The door is open now. There’s no door.”

In contrast with the cutthroat culture at Welch’s GE, Culp’s employees will get some leeway if they do walk into walls. “That doesn’t mean that if you screw something up and you do it repeatedly, there isn’t responsibility to bear,” Culp says. “But a problem-solving culture is far more effective operationally than a finger-pointing culture.”

Brian Carlson remembers his first gemba walk with Culp. Carlson, who runs the 1.2-million-square-foot GE factory in Schenectady, New York, that makes power plant generators, watched Culp stop at one production line in 2019 to inspect a reel of copper wire, which workers fashion into long, braided slabs bent like hockey sticks at both ends. Known as stator bars, these parts are installed inside the guts of enormous generators, which can weigh more than 400 tons. Culp was checking the manufacturing date on a reel of wire. Dozens of reels were stacked on shelves and pallets at the station, burning cash as long as they sat unused. “Others had visited Schenectady before, but it wasn’t into that level of detail,” Carlson says. “When Larry Culp shows up and wants to see how long your material’s been sitting on the factory floor, that simple gesture really sets a tone.”

After that visit, workers cleared out a large room that once housed office space near the factory’s entrance and spent months building a scale model of the entire factory from hand-cut pieces of white and green foam, which they carefully laid out on rows of folding tables. Placards hang overhead marking each section of the factory, the largest of which declares the purpose of this enormous diorama: “Take it to the model before you take it to the floor.”

The foam factory is now a hub of Schenectady’s operations. Factory staff simulate projects first in the room before testing them on the factory floor. This is part of what’s known inside GE as a kaizen event. Culp loves a good kaizen. The Japanese term means continuous improvement and is another tenet of lean manufacturing. It’s a method for problem-solving that Culp has pushed throughout the company, in which executives and hourly workers dedicate a week to improve a production process, such as the stator bars that caught his attention during his visit in 2019. The goal is to come up with a solution by Friday and have the new process in motion on Monday.

The old way of making stator bars involved moving parts by crane through a 26-step process that took about three months to complete. Each bar now moves on rollers through an eight-step process in as little as three weeks. And now there’s only enough copper wire on hand to sustain a single shift.

On an unusually warm day in late February, Carlson motions to an area on the stator bar line where more improvement is needed. They still use a crane to hoist bars over an active walkway that crosses through the assembly line. A fix is in the works. “See,” he says, “we’re not perfect yet.”

“We Do Not Intend, Let Me Be Clear, To Be All Things To All People”

By early 2021, Culp’s turnaround of GE was starting to take hold, but the company was still sitting on too much debt. A solution arrived that March, when AerCap Holdings NV agreed to acquire GE’s aircraft leasing unit. The deal would allow GE to pay off $30 billion it had borrowed, reducing its debt to the point where the company could realistically think about establishing three separate businesses—in aerospace, health care and energy—that investors would actually want to own.

Culp started mapping out a breakup plan and gave it a code name: Project Revere, inspired by a monument to American patriot Paul Revere near Culp’s home in Boston. He liked the history motif. As GE’s board deliberated a split-up, a defining moment came in a PowerPoint presentation. A slide illustrated the degree to which investors were avoiding the stock simply because it was a conglomerate. “When you just looked at the companies that folks who really wanted to bet on the energy transition or on commercial aerospace were invested in, it was not with us,” Culp says.

In November, a week after the AerCap deal closed, GE announced the spinoff plan. “Everyone felt the weight of that decision,” Culp says at GE Aerospace’s Learning Center in Evendale, Ohio, where visitors can tour a museum of the company’s aerospace achievements, starting with the first American jet engine.

A breakup was never the only option, but it was the best one. Although modern conglomerates do exist (Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft), GE’s ye olde smokestack model wasn’t working anymore. Investors were getting burned by its bigness more often than they were getting rewarded. The conglomerate structure is especially limiting when it comes to spending money, says David Giroux, a portfolio manager and chief investment officer of T. Rowe Price Investment Management. Massive companies tend to make the wrong acquisitions and overpay for them.

One deal Culp didn’t do was to pay an acquirer to make GE’s insurance problem go away. “There were checks back in the dark days that we could have written that would have been akin to having people tear our eyeballs out,” Culp says. “But you never want to be on the other side of that sort of trade.” Although GE hasn’t done any new business in long-term-care insurance in almost two decades, it’s still paying off claims it agreed to back for other providers. It’s now closed the $15 billion insurance funding shortfall, and investors treat the appendage as more of a quirk than the crisis it was in 2018. Culp says he might get rid of the business someday. But he’s not in any rush.

After the breakup, GE Aerospace will have $25 billion of cash to spend on dividends, share buybacks and acquisitions—with the first two taking priority. Culp won’t say what kinds of deals GE Aerospace might do, only that he’ll look for complementary and easily digestible assets. “We do not intend, let me be clear, to be all things to all people,” he told investors in early March.

All of GE’s gemba walks and kaizens and the intense scrutiny of its manufacturing operations look especially prudent after a series of high-profile quality-control failures among its peers. RTX Corp. is recalling thousands of jet engines because of a manufacturing glitch; Siemens Energy AG sought help from the German government after defects in its wind turbines resulted in massive losses; and Boeing Co. can’t even deliver its 737 Max with all the bolts properly installed.

When there are three GEs, Culp hopes the old name still means something to investors. He says that’s one reason he took the job in the first place: “It’s GE.”

At the company’s off-site in Ohio, executives gathered at Carillon Historical Park in Dayton. It’s home to the Wright Brothers’ Wright Flyer III, the first practical airplane. This piece of aviation history sits next to Culp’s Cafe, which serves an All-American egg sandwich and coffee for $13. The cafe has nothing to do with GE’s CEO. It’s named after Charlotte Gilbert Culp, who founded a baked-goods business in 1902 as a young widow in Dayton. At that time, GE was still just an electrical company.

Philadelphia PA - The Crucible of the Nation

Located in Pennsylvania, Philadelphia is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States. The city is known for its history and rich culture, as well as its diverse attractions. It is also famous for its restaurants, museums and parks.

Philadelphia is the second most populous city in the state and the fourth most populous urban area in the U.S. It has a population of about 1.3 million people.

The city is home to various cultural and artistic events throughout the year. The Reading Terminal Market, for example, is America's oldest continuously operated farmer's market and it features a huge selection of produce, meats, cheeses, seafood and confectionery.

Many people visit Philadelphia for its museums, which are filled with art from all over the world. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is particularly impressive and it houses an extensive collection of impressionist and post-impressionist works. Other museums include the Barnes Museum, Rodin Museum and Penn Museum to name but a few.

If you're looking for something a little different to do on your trip, you can always check out the Mummers' Parade that takes place every New Year. The parade sees performers strut down Broad Street dressed in elaborate costumes and fancy floats.

The city is an important hub of industry in Pennsylvania and it is home to a number of large industrial companies. These companies make up a significant portion of the local economy. They are in the fields of information technology, oil refining, food processing, healthcare, biotechnology and tourism.

During the 1800s, the city became an international industrial leader thanks to its manufacturing sector. It is home to the headquarters of various Fortune 500 companies, including Comcast Corporation, Aramark, Crown Holdings and FMC Corp.

Philly is also known for its vibrant music scene. The city is home to a wide variety of musical genres, from pop and rock to classical music. The city is a major concert venue with live jazz bars, orchestral concerts and ballets.

Its history is rooted in its religious beliefs and values, as well as its ethnic traditions. It is a major center of Quaker religion, but it also has many other religious groups.

The city has been called "the crucible of the nation," because of its rich history and strong social traditions. It is a city where tolerance is the rule rather than the exception. The city has a long tradition of racial and ethnic tolerance, as well as anti-hate legislation.

While the city is still a major center for racial and ethnic diversity, it has been experiencing a significant decline in its population. The city lost a fifth of its population in the past four decades and those who moved away found employment outside of Philadelphia.

In the early 20th century, Philadelphia was a major destination for African-Americans. Its Black population increased rapidly during the first half of the twentieth century, as a result of the migration of Southern-born Blacks to the area. However, the influx of African-Americans into the city was not without problems.

How to Prepare Concrete For Epoxy Flooring

Epoxy flooring is one of the most popular types of flooring. It is aesthetically appealing, durable, and easy to customize. This material is also incredibly affordable, making it a great choice for homes and businesses.

It is a two-part coating consisting of a resin and hardener/activator. It can be easily found at many home improvement, paint, and hardware stores.

This coating is used to protect concrete floors from damage. It is a good option for areas with high traffic, such as garages and basements, because it resists stains and damage. It is also resistant to chemical exposure, such as brake fluids or oils.

If you are putting epoxy on your floor, it is important to prepare the concrete surface properly. This is crucial because it will ensure proper adhesion between the epoxy and the floor.

The process of preparing the surface begins by using a shot blaster, which removes any flaky or rough concrete. It is also recommended to use a self-leveling concrete primer. This will give your floor a smoother surface to bond to and help prevent bubbles in the final coating.

After the primer has dried, it is time to mix the epoxy. Be sure to clean the floor thoroughly and apply a coat of painters tape or duct tape before mixing the floor coating.

Once the mix is ready, pour it out in a 1′′-2′′ ribbon along the back border of the section you are working on. Continue to roll it out in this manner until it is all poured out.

Epoxy floor coating is a durable and high-quality product. It can withstand heavy traffic and remains beautiful for years to come.

Flake epoxy floors are a great option for those looking to add a little color and style to their garage, basement or other space.

The sky’s the limit for Sherwin-Williams at Teesside International airport 

Sherwin-Williams, the leading global manufacturer of paints and coatings, has announced that its pioneering Resuflor™ high build epoxy floor coating system has been successfully applied at a hangar in Teesside International Airport, the location for the Royal Air Force’s (RAF) Interim Red Air Aggressor Training Service (IRAATS). A Resuflor™ Topcoat system has been used to ensure a reliable and robust floor surface for the L-159E aircraft that are being used to conduct combat training.

Ensuring that the 2,000m2 hangar used by IRAATS has a floor coating that can withstand the rigours of activities that take place there was the responsibility of Darlington based specialist flooring contractor, MJF Group. The company’s managing director, Martin Ferguson, said, ‘As you would expect from a project that involves the RAF, only the very best in class products could be used in order to offer the required levels of health and safety. We assessed a number of products from various floor coatings manufacturers and felt that Sherwin-Williams’ Resuflor™ coating system offered the required protection and resistance to Skydrol.’

Skydrol is a phosphate ester hydraulic fluid that is widely used in aircraft. It is fire resistant and retains a low viscosity at very low temperatures at altitudes of 10,000m or more, which are important considerations within aviation and aerospace. While highly effective, Skydrol is also incredibly corrosive and can easily damage a concrete floor if it is not adequately protected.

‘Industrial epoxy resin flooring is impact resistant, fast curing and holds up well against fluctuating temperature changes,’ explained Jay Livingstone, Business Development Manager at Sherwin-Williams. ‘Within the aerospace industry floors also need to be able to resist the corrosive capabilities of Skydrol. Although there are various Skydrol resistant products on the market, Resuflor™ is the only one that is available straight off the shelf. While other manufacturers have to modify their existing products using expensive additives – with a price tag to match – Sherwin-Williams offers a readily available, cost effective and hardworking solution that also looks good.’

MJF Group shotblasted the existing concrete floor and then used a diamond grinding process to correct irregularities such as minor pits and divots. A coat of Resuprime NVT was used and then two coats of grey Resuflor™ HB were applied – one 300 micron and one 250 micron – with quartz used in specific parts of the floor. In terms of maintenance, Sherwin-Williams has provided specialist tyre mark and oil removers, as well as general cleaning solutions, to achieve the breakdown and removal of deposits, maintain the aesthetic qualities of the floor and maximise its operational lifespan. 

Jay Livingstone of Sherwin-Williams concluded, ‘We are delighted that MJF Group used Resuflor™ for this project. The work that the RAF is undertaking at Teesside International Airport is of vital importance to us all at this time of geopolitical turbulence and we are proud to be able to play a role by providing a hardwearing and chemically resistant floor coating that is required in this environment. The RAF now benefits from a cost-effective solution that offers unrivalled protection against Skydrol and other contaminants.’
