Epoxy Floor Coatings

Epoxy Floor Coatings can be applied
over many different materials, including
steel, concrete, and wood. However,
concrete is the best surface for laying
epoxy floors. Epoxy floor coating
performance is directly affected by surface
preparation. The integrity and the service
life will be reduced significantly if the
surface is improperly prepared. A proper
surface preparation ensures epoxy
coating adhesion to the substrate and
prolongs the life of the epoxy coating
system.

There are many reason why to choose epoxy floor than other floor covering.
Since it is possible to provide the epoxy resin systems of specific characteristics, epoxy floors
may be made to satisfy the users' demands. It is a very great advantage over other floor
coverings produced of unchangeable physical, technical and chemical characteristics.

-Impact Resistance: Epoxy floors are generally used in areas of industry where goods are
handled in specific spaces, such as production lines, warehouses, loading bays, and where
compressive loads are generated by the movement of goods on trucks, pallets etc.
-Slip Resistance: Pedestrian traffic areas require varying degrees of slip resistance,
dependent on whether the environment is wet or dry.
-Fire Resistance: Fire escape routes, explosive production and storage areas , underground
car park decks.
-Hygiene: Pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, beverage, chemical and electronics industries have
very demanding sanitary requirements. These industries often need totally dust free and easily
cleanable floors, without cracks or angled corners.
-Chemical Resistance- Waterproof: Epoxy floor coverings provide an impermeable seal
to protect both the concrete and the underlying ground water from the leakage of liquid pollutants,
which are also chemically corrosive, as those coming from metal processing, galvanizing, food
processing ( milk, meat, vegetables, etc). They are resistant to chemical attacks of the floor by
individual and combined chemicals and their mixed effects and consequences of any chemical
reactions.
 Advantages of Epoxy Floors

Epoxy Floors Protect concrete from wear,

chemical corrosion and chemical
deterioration. Reduces wear to transport
vehicles and reduces time spent on
maintenance. Provides faster material
movement through working and transport
areas and protects products from damage.
Reduces floor maintenance and cleaning
costs, producing a cleaner work
environment and decreases injuries with
non-slip surfaces. Increases light reflectivity
and brightens work areas which saves on
utility expenses and maximizes work
efficiencies.

We ask a lot of questions and gather a lot of

information before making recommendations
about epoxy, industrial coatings and chemical
resistance needs.

As your concrete floor contractor, we want to

know about your operations and industry—
industrial, manufacturing, food processing. We
will ask questions about your traffic—foot,
truck, heavy machinery—along with thermal
shock details. And we will ask you to tell us
about your operating conditions—does it get
hot or cold?

We know that appearance of your industrial coating matters. The end goal is to be functional and
durable. We will make recommendations based on your environment and budgetary needs—
epoxy, urethane, polymer, polyurethane concrete, vinyl ester, novolac and sealers. Tell us what
you think will look the best. And above everything, tell us your facility’s safety concerns.
