Clinkershop by Roben - AutoStoneUSA

A permanent enhanced porcelain technology floor tile and system for use in automotive workshop and climate controlled service drive environments.

Manage STF Environmental Risk

AutoStone proposes our Clinkershop by Roben as one of our three workshop floor systems for service drive and workshop facilities. This service and workshop floor system has been successfully installed in a number of various dealership locations where dealers love the STF benefits, which reduce their exposure to customer and employee injury in the service drive and/or workshop.

Brightfinish
Permanent Sealant Resists Permanent Stains

AutoStone’s brightfinish ultra-cleanable technology surface finish is an optional surface finish option. The brightfinish resists permanent stains and assists in the removal of grout residue during installation and aids cleaning practices. The brightfinish will deliver brighter, fresher, and cleaner showroom environments.

Medium Traction Surface Rating

Brand programs encourage making your service facility viewable to the customer. Industry research indicates that professional-looking, clean and tidy service departments improve CSI ratings while enhancing brand perception. AutoStone provides you the best floor system which can deliver a beautiful, durable and clean appearing facility. Your shop is an extension of your showroom, because each positive customer experience leads to increased service revenue and future vehicle sales. AutoStone delivers permanence, performance and appearance.

AutoStone Aids Dealership
Cleaning Practices

The reality of an automotive service facility is that dealers conduct business on floors that have contaminants tracked in by vehicles throughout the day. This increases STF (slip, trip, fall) risk exposure. Employees and customers are constantly exposed to these STF conditions which if not properly managed can lead to workplace injuries, litigation, and higher general liability insurance premiums. The question for a dealership is, “what is the best floor surface to address the reality of STF risk we face in the service drive and workshop space?” We suggest you talk with AutoStone to find a better solution to address and reduce STF risk.

Brightfinish
Ultra-Cleanable Technology

All three AutoStone service drive and workshop floor systems have our Brightfinish technology. The Brightfinish technology enhances our impervious tile surface with a permanent sealant baked-in during the manufacturing process. Permanent service drive and workshop floors can be kept in “like-new” condition for the life of the dealership with regularly scheduled and proper cleaning practices.

Chain-Rake QC Floor Testing
Eliminate Latent Installation Defects During Installation

Ask about the AutoStone “Chain-Rake” QC (quality control) process to assure that your workshop project delivers a lifetime of performance, function, and beauty. When it comes an automotive industrial floor, one of the risks ownership faces is latent warranty issues related to cracked-and-broken tile.

You can’t see if a tile is fully bonded to the substrate – but you CAN hear it!

When successfully implemented this QC process eliminates most future latent warranty issues that result in cracked/broken tile. Cracked/broken tile usually happens due to insufficient thin set applied to the back of the tile. This QC process helps identify those issues before the flooring contractor has left the project, so a fully bonded floor is realized, and future warranty issues are identified during the installation process.
