(Lanxess) -- The placement of floor screed
has begun at the new corporate headquarters of specialty chemicals company
LANXESS in Cologne, Germany. Raised access flooring is to be installed over the
next five months on some 38,000 square meters of office space, including a
load-bearing layer made of self leveling calciumsulfate screed. The self
leveling screed is supplied by Dusseldorf-based CEMEX Deutschland AG on behalf
of system flooring manufacturer Sybotec GmbH, Frammersbach, Germany, which is
performing the work.

One unique feature: The screed is based on the LANXESS calcium sulfate
binder CAB 30 Compound. As the future tenants, we are really pleased that our
own products form the best basis for flooring, says engineer Michael Witte,
Anhydrite Marketing Director in LANXESS’ Advanced Industrial Intermediates
business unit.

The raised access flooring, also referred to as raised flooring, enables
occupants later on to design office space flexibly: Wherever a desk area is to
be located, an opening is provided in the load-bearing layer. After completion
of the floor, telecommunications equipment and electrical connections lie hidden
in the hollow space between the load-bearing layer and the concrete floor.
