Commercial Floor Solutions

Just like a strong foundation supports a building, your commercial flooring sets the stage for your entire business. It's more than just a place to walk; it speaks volumes about your brand, safety standards, and commitment to quality.

The value of resinous floor coatings

Every commercial space comes with unique operational requirements, including the choice of flooring installed throughout. Factors such as workload standards and compliance regulations must be carefully considered.

When selecting commercial flooring, it's crucial to contemplate the nature of the work conducted in the space. Will there be high traffic areas, either by foot or machine? Are conditions such that the surface needs to be resistant to chemicals, oil, or slips? What about noise reduction—do you require a floor that absorbs sound effectively? These are just a few of the questions and considerations that need to be pondered.

Fortunately, there is a commercial floor solution that checks all of the boxes of durable, easy-to-maintain commercial flooring.

Resinous floor coatings, such as epoxy, urethane, or polished concrete, have emerged as the preferred choice for seamless flooring solutions. This combination has become a standard across various industries due to its ability to fulfill numerous business requirements at a reasonable cost.

While concrete itself provides a sturdy surface, its inherent brittleness and porosity make it less than ideal. Concrete surfaces are prone to damage and can absorb liquids, including potentially hazardous chemicals. To address these shortcomings, a resinous coating is essential to create a unified, seamless flooring surface. This results in an exceptionally durable, easy-to-clean, and low-maintenance solution capable of enduring for decades without the need for replacement.

Epoxy inherently resists most chemical interactions, and various resin types can be selected to suit the specific environment. With resinous coatings, there's no need to fret about spills corroding the floor, even when exposed to harsh cleaners.

Slip Resistant
