Long Rake Spar were delighted to hear their aggregates have made a trip abroad!
As part of their Global Expansion Plans Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) secured a site for a new showroom on Automotion Vénissieux in Lyon which sits in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France.
With the site due for completion in just a matter of weeks, and no local supplier/installer of resin bound paving, one the World’s most prestigious car manufacturers, JLR Paris, contacted SureSet.
Over two days at the beginning of April, 407m² of 6mm Norwegian Pearl was laid using a combination of hand floating and power float to the front and side of the brand new building.
SureSet resin bound paving was laid directly up to the external showroom wall, open tree pits, automatic gate track, drainage channel, the movement joint installed at the end of the gate tracks and natural bricks around the prominent Jaguar Land Rover sign.
Long Rake’s superior aggregates were utilised within SureSets Norwegian Pearl which was the inspiration for the colour of their unique movement joint. The joint was bespoke, a 15mm aluminium speckled infill expansion joint colour matched to SureSets Norwegian Pearl.
With the resin bound paving expertly installed and beautiful cars gleaming away in the showroom, when their Installation Team left JLR were awaiting the installation of the external cladding, for the project to be completed in time.
