Kingspan’s flooring is being supplied for the project through the Russian based contractors K Concept. Installation work began in August and is due to be completed by the end of February 2013.
The raised flooring contract was awarded by KMT Construction Holding. The company’s project director, Petr Khlebtsov, and CEO, Eray Gonnen, said they selected Kingspan flooring because of its quality to price ratio, speed of delivery and the extensive technical support provided by K Concept.
Kingspan Access Floors Commercial Director Rachel Mumford said: "Another factor in the client’s choice of our steel encapsulated flooring was the advantages of its chipboard core – its lighter weight means it is easier to handle, there is less risk of transport damage, and freight and material costs are lower."
Kingspan’s largest contract in Russia was to supply 35,000 sq m of flooring in 2010 to the oil company TNK-BP for a new headquarters building.
