Why Choose Epoxy Flooring?
Most flooring solutions come with their share of disadvantages, but there are a few whose benefits significantly outweigh the flaws. Epoxy flooring is one such example. It is resistant to spills, stains and some chemicals. It is also durable and versatile, making it ideal for several kinds of interior and exterior applications. Find out more about this flooring system below.
Applications for Epoxy Flooring
Epoxy floor coating is suitable for a range of different environments, including commercial and industrial flooring systems. Several industries choose to cover their concrete floors with this solution to improve site safety for employees and the equipment.
Industrial Floors
Applied epoxy coating on factory and warehouse floors. Epoxy effectively reinforces concrete, improving the floor’s strength and durability.
Retail Display Floors
Suitable for lobbies, display floors and other commercial spaces. Epoxy coating comes in different colours and high-gloss finishes for additional aesthetic effects.
Hospital Floors
Ideal for coating hospital, restroom and cafeteria floors. Epoxy is highly resistant to bacteria and germs, improving a space’s cleanliness and hygiene.
Advantages of Epoxy Flooring
There are several reasons to apply epoxy resin onto your concrete flooring. It provides an effective way to improve floor surface performance, durability and aesthetic appeal. Commercial and industrial companies prefer to apply epoxy coating on their floors for this reason. Learn more about its advantages to your flooring system.
Affordable
Epoxy coating is a cost-effective alternative compared to other types of flooring. It’s easy to apply and maintain, making its upkeep more convenient and less expensive than most floor options.
Durable
Protective
Resistance
Epoxy floor coating creates a protective layer over your initial flooring solution that makes the latter highly resistant to water, oil, petrol and other chemicals and liquids. Additionally, epoxy resin is resistant to bacteria and germs, allowing you to improve your site’s hygiene.
Versatile
Apart from its ability to improve the performance and longevity of a floor, epoxy coating enhances aesthetic appeal. It’s available in a wide variety of colours and finishes. Shapes and patterns can be placed between the floor and the epoxy coating for a customised surface.
How We Apply Epoxy Coating on Floors
Step 1: Prepare the surface for coating
Armourcrete starts the application process by diamond grinding the entire surface area. The team will clear it of dust, dirt, grime and other substances that can negatively impact the epoxy coating finish.
Step 2: Pour the epoxy mixture onto the surface
Step 3: Spread out and smoothen the coating over the surface
After pouring the coating mixture, the team works on spreading it out across the entire surface. They use a spreader with a roller feature to make sure everything is smooth and prevent bubbles from forming.
Additional optional step: Place designs onto the initial layer of epoxy.
The team will apply your chosen designs, from patterns to your brand name, onto the initial layer of the epoxy coating. A secondary layer will then be poured on top to cover the designs.
Step 4: Pour additional layers of epoxy coating
Step 5: Let the coating cure before cleaning the floor
After pouring and smoothening out the last layer of epoxy coating, the team lets it cure. Once done, they will clean the entire surface to make it shine, so you get the full effect of the epoxy look.
Step 6: Inspect the finished surface
Why Hire a Professional?
Applying epoxy floor coating requires professional services, especially for large-scale applications. The solution needs to be handled properly by experts. Choosing to do this yourself can result in mistakes that will significantly affect your flooring. These can result in extensive and expensive repairs. Invest in professional services to make sure your flooring system is reinforced properly. A professional also has the training to easily identify any problems that need addressing before the epoxy coating is applied.
