Known for its durability, easy maintenance, and sustainability, epoxy resin has become one of the leading choices in industrial flooring. Here is a breakdown of why, in our experience, we recommend it to our commercial and industrial clients.
Epoxy coatings create a hard surface that is resistant to abrasion, cracks, and splits when properly maintained. This makes it ideal for areas of high vehicular traffic and heavy machinery.
Epoxy coatings can be resistant to harsh chemicals, oils, acids, and solvents, and where spills are commonplace. Spills are easily wiped away, ensuring a clean finish, making it a great flooring choice.
Resin floors are low maintenance and easy to clean. The impermeable, smooth, and flawless finish prevents areas from forming a buildup of dust, dirt, and bacteria, perfect for industries with strict hygiene standards such as food and drinks production, commercial kitchens, and hospitals.
Whilst resin is often seen as one of the more expensive flooring options on the market, when properly maintained, its lifespan is impressive. Minimal maintenance is needed, which makes it a cost-effective flooring solution.
With a quick installation and fast-curing process, downtime for your business will be minimised.
Non-slip additives can be mixed with the resin to ensure a safe and slip-resistant finish, meeting health and safety standards box for employees and visitors to your premises. This is important for all industries, but particularly those where conditions may be wet or oily.
Sustainability is now an increasingly important factor for many industries, and as resin can be applied over a properly prepared, existing floor, waste is reduced. Resin flooring products are more commonly made with low or zero VOCs, making them safer and more environmentally friendly.
Choosing an experienced resin flooring installation company will give you confidence that your existing floor is properly prepared and the epoxy is applied correctly, to give it the longevity that you would expect.
