    Just wondering what you guys do with your screed if your units not heated ?
    do you wrap with polythene and dust sheets ? Anything else ? Im reluctant to buy full pallets during winter , plus I noticed fballs shelf life is only 6 months , sometimes I’m going through a lot of screed then a few months I’m not .
    Any advice on the storage side of things for screed appreciated

    We sell it as well so always use a pallet in less than a month. But from December we will order per job.

    Gotta watch the dates on screed. We only order what we need. If your shifting it fast then pallets are the way. Our unit is really well insulated so it doesn’t get too cold but we have a oil heater we turn on if it’s ridiculously cold

    Always a pain the winter. We have loads of screed out of date at the mo. Waiting for a laminate job to use them up

    Watch the fball 700. My mate put down 70 m2 out of date (unknowingly) had to scrap it off the floor the next day, it never set!
