REPLACE your FACTORY floor with Jura Block™ Polymer Composite Wood fiber Block for long-lasting performance - IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT

Polymer Composite Wood Fiber Block

heavy duty industrial floors

Now your plant floor can have the comfort of end grain wood block flooring combined with the dimensional stability of polymer with JURA BLOCK polymer wood composite block flooring from Jennison & Wright. Made of select hardwood fibers encapsulated and reinforced in a high density polymer matrix, JURA BLOCK offers long lasting performance in most retrofit or creosote treated wood block replacement applications.

JURA BLOCK construction makes blocks lightweight, resilient, abrasion resistant and environmentally safe. In addition, the nonporous composition makes this flooring block highly resistant to moisture, oil, most chemicals, solvents and other corrosive materials. And, unlike polymer concrete blocks, these floor blocks will not chip or crack. Blocks lay up tight against each other to eliminate voids and future hammering of an open joint from rolling traffic. With JURA BLOCK composite flooring your plant floor will be cleaner, quieter, safer and remain intact longer.

And JURA BLOCK offers an additional bonus. Because all blocks are square and dimensionally stable, with no specific top or bottom, installation is easy using your regular maintenance personnel. They’ll be able to install JURA BLOCK without any special materials, equipment or training and with virtually no interruption of your work schedule. Ideal replacement for creosted end grain wood block, fibre block, polyblok or composite block. JURA BLOCK is the industry leader.

JURA BLOCK polymer wood industrial floors offer these benefits:

• Highly Resistant to Moisture - Dimensionally stable, nonporous installed blocks won't swell, shrink or warp—your floor will stay solidly in place.

• Environmentally Responsible - Jura Block Floors contain no preservatives or hazardous chemicals and can be recycled.

• Easy, Economical Installation - A simple retrofit for creosote treated wood block or polymer concrete block flooring. Lightweight blocks can be easily installed by in house maintenance personnel with no special equipment or training.

• Abrasion and Impact Resistant - Absorbs impact and provides strong uniform load and rolling load performance. Won't chip, crack, check or warp.

• Chemical Resistant - Nonporous block construction is resistant to most chemicals, solvents, grease, oil, water and moisture.

• Controls Vibration and Noise - Defuses vibration; absorbs more noise than polymer-concrete or cementitious floors.

• Reduces Maintenance Costs - Easy to clean and maintain. Machined surfaces fit together tightly with no voids or open joints, eliminating hammering by rolling traffic.

• Reduces Worker Fatigue - Resiliency and warmth reduce worker's foot, calf and leg muscle fatigue and subsequent workers comp claims or lost time. No need for costly anti-fatigue mats.

Abrasion Resistance

Abrasion resistance is the ability of the flooring to withstand wearing action. This is important when considering its use in heavy traffic areas.

As shown in the chart, JURA BLOCK has superior abrasion resistance compared with most wood block flooring. Only Hickory and Hand Maple have better wear resistance. Southern Yellow Pine shows twice the amount of wear and white oak, shows 75% more wear than JURA BLOCK™.

Hardness

Hardness defines the floors resistance to indentations, wear and marring. Harder materials have greater resistance to penetration, however the hardness of material does not necessarily correlated to the strength of the material.

The average hardness of JURA BLOCK is 1124 pounds. As the chart shows, JURA BLOCK is comparable to the hardness of Oak, Maples and White Ash (used in baseball bats). Do not settle for second best!

SPECIFICATIONS

Materials

JURA BLOCK Polymer Wood Composite Floor Blocks shall be manufactured from select hardwood fibers encapsulated and reinforced in a high density polymer metric. Blocks shall be top and bottom machined to the same dimension and finished solid on all sides, with no grooves or tapers. Sides shall be square to the surface. Installed blocks shall fit tightly against each other with no voids or open joints.

Sizes

Blocks shall be available in a nominal 4 inches wide by 6 inches long, in 2, 2-1/2, or 3 inch depths and finished solid on all sides.

Packaging

Blocks shall be bundled in quantities of 14 to 22 blocks (depending upon size). plastic banded for ease of handling, and stacked onto pallets consisting of 60 bundles. Each pallet shall have a cardboard sleeve placed around it to contain the blocks. The pallet shall be banded with steel strapping for forklift handling and shipping.
