Bubba Gump Restaurant, Piccadilly, London

10 Mar 2015
Case study

This is the first Bubba Gump Restaurant in Europe and is expected to be a huge success based on the popularity of the USA brand.

After several meetings with the main contractor PEC Contracting we sent two samples of flooring for approval by the American Franchise owners of the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. restaurants. Once they signed off the accepted sample we then made sure we had stock available for immediate delivery.

They wanted the authentic look that they have in the United States so our Antique Unfinished engineered wood floor was chosen (E109UF) which is 260mm Wide. The boards were fitted using the fully bonded method with SW890 MS Polymer adhesive made for us by Sika Ltd. Once installed the engineered flooring was finished with two coats of Timberex Bankari Oil.

The fit out has yet to be completed but once finished the floor will then have a builders clean and a coat of Satin Gold Maintenance oil which will transform the look and feel.
