Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products introduced the new 7-Year ResinDek® Product Warranty and the increased pallet jack load from 2,700 lbs to 3,000 lbs. for ResinDek MD at the ProMat 2007 MHIA International Exposition in Chicago. The turnout was strong and featured excellent traffic from rack & mezzanine manufacturers, end users, system integrators, installers, consultants and specifiers. Over 270 people visited the booth to learn about the recent upgrade of ResinDek MD and the new 7-year exclusive warranty. If traffic and interest are any indication of this year's activity, 2007 should prove to be another outstanding year for the material handling industry.

Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products is dedicated to advancing the structural performance of mezzanine floors for the material handling industry; and has expanded testing to develop a series of allowable loads and spans to assist specifiers and engineers in determining the proper substructure for ResinDek Xspan flooring surfaces.

Through this advanced research program it was determined that a series of loads and spans other than 125 psf and 2,300 lb. pallet jack loads at 32" on center could be offered in ResinDek Xspan.

Within 3 years of installing 140,000 square feet of polydeck flooring panels in 1985, the Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation started having problems with their polydeck flooring panels in their highest traffic areas with cart weights of only 800 lbs.

These problems consisted of the separating of the flooring panels and peeling up of the flooring from cracks in the top layers (as shown in the photograph on this page).

In September 2002, Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products, LLC™ the manufacturer of ResinDek flooring panels was contacted to replace these problem areas for Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation. By December 2002, Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products, LLC™ had replaced 20,000 square feet of polydeck with their ResinDek® MD.

In September of 2003, Polo contacted Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products to install more ResinDek since it was performing extremely well. ResinDek MD was then installed in their new 120,000 square foot pick module.

Floor problem with poly-deck

By August 2005, the balance of the original poly-deck flooring was causing additional problems for Polo. Cornerstone Specialty Wood Products was brought back in to replace the rest of the original 120,000 square feet of poly-deck with ResinDek.

“ResinDek has withstood the heavy traffic and the test of time. We now have 260,000 square feet of ResinDek MD in place and are very pleased to have a floor panel that lasts and supports our workloads.” — Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation Chief Industrial Engineer.
