The use of the Lutec Comicat CM 140 proved to be the right tool when Molson Coors needed to replace a floor at its Toronto facility.
The Lutec Comicat CM 140 uses a 31-piece milling tool to mill up to 3 in. deep and 14 in. wide in a single pass. This allows for a production rate of up to 1,200 sq. ft. per hour.
Molson Coors needed to repurpose the concrete floor at its Toronto brewing facility. Besides the floor being 20 years old, the company wanted to convert the property from a production facility complete with bottle washer, filler and pasteurizer that drain onto sloped floors into a warehouse.
Approximately 35,000 sq. ft. of concrete flooring needed to be removed from the 60,000-sq.-ft. facility and the sloped floors needed to be milled to prepare for new concrete to be placed back at a level grade.
Site Manager Wayne Nyhuis considered redoing the floor in the same manner when he replaced a similar floor 15 years ago. At the time, they used a grinder.
“It was messy,” said Nyhuis.
Meanwhile, Tyler Thompson, vice president of construction at Ross and Anglin, attended the Canadian Concrete Expo in February 2020 and met Christoph Ott, of Lutec North America.
Ott informed Thompson of the benefits of using a Lutec Comicat CM 140 milling machine, including Then, Nyhuis contacted Thompson about removing the its ability to cleanly, cost-effectively and quickly mill con- concrete floor from the Molson Coors facility.

“The Comicat 140 is an efficient and productive machine 140. Intrigued, Nyhuis scheduled follow-up conversations for grinding concrete, asphalt and terrazzo,” said Ott. “The with Ott before allowing Ross and Anglin to use the Comicat German-engineered machine provides the best possible CM 140 to mill the 35,000 sq. ft. of flooring and Ross and solution to get the surface prepared correctly for final over- Anglin subcontracted Lutec North America to perform the layment and is used regularly to prepare floors in retail cen- work. ters, industrial buildings, hospitals and parking garages, as Lutec North America is not only responsible for all North well as prepare bridge, concrete road and asphalt road sur- American sales of the Lutec Comicat CM140, the company faces for resurfacing.
