Concrete Coating Protection
Concrete coatings are made from materials that can help ensure your floor coating lasts for many years, protecting the flooring from many types of damage and wear that can occur over time. Concrete coatings are made out of epoxies, urethanes, acrylics and many other less common types like MMA’s or polyaspartics.
They also come in a variety of different types of materials like epoxy trowel down, urethane trowel down, thin mil, decorative quartz and shop floor. Their performance characteristics can also be specific like chemical resistant, static dissipative or moisture control. They can be used as resurfacers, repair materials, coatings, and simple dust proofers. Their surface can be smooth and high shine or textured and matte finish.
- Chemical Resistant
- Static Dissipative
- Moisture Control
- Resurfacer
- Dust Proofer
Concrete Epoxy Floor Coatings
Epoxy coatings are probably one of the most versatile products in the industrial flooring industry. Epoxy comes in a couple different versions, usually water-based or 100% solids. The water-based versions are great for low traffic areas or where longer working time for the material is important.
100% solids epoxy has many advantages over water-based epoxy in that it has significantly better bonding characteristics and can be used in thicker applications like resurfacing, broadcast, flake or shop floor. It can also be designed to withstand very harsh chemicals or static dissipative charges.
Applying 100% solids epoxy is a reasonably technical process that needs the right preparation techniques and application tools coupled with an experienced crew. However, epoxy coatings that are applied properly can provide years of service.
Features:
- Rapid curing.
- High abrasion resistance.
- Exceptional chemical resistance.
- Adhesion strength, forming a robust bond with the substrate.
- Aesthetic customization with a variety of colors and finishes.
Benefits:
- Superior durability, making epoxy suitable for high-traffic areas and heavy use.
- Cost-effective, providing a long-lasting protective barrier to the underlying concrete substrate.
- Easy maintenance due to a seamless surface, reducing the risk of bacterial or contaminant buildup.
- Enhanced safety with the option to incorporate non-slip aggregates.
- Versatile application, suitable for most commercial and industrial spaces.
Other Types of Concrete Floor Coatings
Choosing the right type of concrete floor coating depends on the specific requirements of the space, such as the level of foot traffic, exposure to chemicals, and desired aesthetic features. It’s essential to consider these factors when selecting a coating to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
