Industrial facilities like manufacturing and automotive get slammed with heavy traffic daily. So, these facilities rely heavily on having durable flooring to keep everyone safe. Unfortunately, commercial flooring options, like polished concrete, that used to be safe are now losing to new technology.
At Coating Designs, we’re a professional concrete coating company specializing in industrial epoxy flooring installations. Epoxy flooring is a durable concrete flooring option that rivals all industrial flooring. It withstands heavy machinery, equipment, and chemicals that would wreak havoc on other types of flooring.
Read on to learn what our experts say about epoxy industrial floor coating.
What is Epoxy Flooring?
Epoxy flooring is a liquid flooring component made up of hardeners and resins. The two combine to create a chemical reaction that forms a durable material that bonds to a substrate like concrete. Because of its incredible strength, it is best used in environments with heavy traffic, like an industrial facility.
Top Reasons Why Industrial Facilities Choose Epoxy Flooring
It’s no secret that industrial facilities need strong floors, but that’s not the only thing that makes epoxy flooring superior. Here are the top five reasons why industrial facilities are choosing epoxy flooring over and over again.
Cost-Effectiveness
Epoxy flooring doesn’t require lots of material. Instead, contractors work with the existing concrete flooring, reinforcing it to create a more resilient floor. Because of this, industrial facilities can cut their flooring costs upfront while also saving overtime in future repairs and replacement costs.
Safe for You and the Environment
Safety is a pillar in industrial facilities. Flooring companies can modify epoxy flooring to add slip-resistant and anti-microbial properties to protect the health and safety of workers. Its natural protection from stains and defects also makes keeping facilities cleaner an easy task.
Although epoxy flooring consists partially of petroleum, it has some environmentally-friendly qualities. Unlike other flooring options, it requires few materials and outlasts them, creating less waste. It also contains zero VOC and no heavy metals.
Strong
Epoxy flooring is an industrial-grade flooring option. Applying epoxy flooring to an existing concrete floor triples its strength. So, while a bare concrete floor can withstand about 3,000 pounds of load per square inch, an epoxy floor can withstand nearly 10,000 pounds of load per square inch.
Epoxy applications’ shock-resistant and smooth nature make them inherently easy on heavy machineries like forklifts and vehicles. In addition, the lack of potholes, cracks, and unevenness saves machines the added stress.
Resistance to Industrial Hazards
Industrial facilities pride themselves on being hazard-free zones. Epoxy flooring aids this effort with its ability to withstand extreme temperature, chemical spills, scraping, shock, and corrosion. This means that You can count on epoxy flooring even under the most demanding circumstances.
Visual Appeal
Epoxy flooring comes in an array of colors and patterns. It can be customized to fit the specific needs of any facility. So, whether you want to add a brand name or custom logo, epoxy can get the job done.
