project brief
The BBC operates high-traffic television studios where floors must remain in perfect condition for broadcasting. Studio environments require frequent repainting to maintain a clean, uniform appearance on camera, making floor protection essential to preserve the underlying surface and ensure consistent visual quality.

The Challenge of Maintaining Studio Floors
Studio floors are exposed to constant wear from:
- Cameras and production equipment
- Heavy foot traffic from crew and presenters
- Frequent repainting for different productions
Over time, multiple layers of paint build up, making removal difficult and increasing the risk of damaging the original floor surface.
The Solution: Peelable Temporary Floor Protection Coating
To address these challenges, Protectapeel temporary floor protection coating was applied directly to the studio floor as a base layer. This creates a durable, peelable system that protects the original floor while allowing flexibility for ongoing studio use.
the result
Using Protectapeel delivers significant operational benefits:
- Protection of the original studio floor from damage
- Efficient removal of multiple paint layers in one process
- Reduced labour and maintenance time
- Consistent, high-quality appearance for broadcasting
Easy Removal and Reapplication
After 12 months the coating was peeled away by hand, removing all accumulated paint layers in one go. This revealed the clean, undamaged original floor, ready for reapplication of Protectapeel and continuation of the cycle, saving time and eliminating the need for intensive cleaning.
Proven Performance in Broadcast Environments
Protectapeel was used successfully in BBC studios for many years, demonstrating its reliability in demanding, high-use environments.
Floor Protection Beyond Construction
While commonly used in construction, temporary floor protection coatings are also ideal for environments like TV studios, where surfaces need to be regularly refreshed and maintained.
Protectapeel provides a flexible, repeatable protection system that supports efficiency, cost savings, and long-term surface preservation.
