Advantages of Epoxy Floor Finishes

Epoxy floor coatings is growing in popularity all across the country because of the many benefits.

High Durability

Epoxy floors are extremely strong and durable, with a lifespan that far surpasses other floor coverings. They are simply the most durable floors that resist daily wear. It can withstand heavy foot and equipment traffic and is difficult to damage. With special additives, epoxy flooring can also stand up to shock, prolonged vibration and extreme heat.

The cost-saving and long life expectancy of this type of flooring have made it the new choice for offices, schools, retail stores, offices, clinics, restaurants, and industrial buildings of all types.

Aesthetics

The choice of colours and texture effects for floors is limitless. Options include decorative patterns, flakes, glitters and much more. We love to bring old, drab concrete surfaces to life.

Low Maintenance

Epoxy floor coatings are easy to clean. A properly installed, sealed and maintained epoxy floor can last more than 20 years. Grease, dirt, grime, and other debris are easily wiped off the non-porous surface. Damp mopping once a week to remove scuffs and water marks is all that is usually required. Additional maintenance may be required with other types of floor finishes. Epoxy concrete floors do not require any waxing or stripping to maintain the sheen.

Safety

Epoxy coatings are resistant to slippage, impact, heat and fire. Epoxy is a hard-wearing, durable surface resistant to oil, chemicals, and water. Commercial and industrial concrete floors can be sealed with a chemical-resistant epoxy to protect your floor against harsher chemicals and solvents.

Sanitary

Properly installed epoxy floors are non-porous, meaning they prevent liquids and contaminants from getting into the concrete. This is why many health facilities, and the hotel and hospital industry, are choosing this type of flooring over others. Done properly, the surface of your floor should resist bacteria and other similar contaminants.

Brighter

High gloss finishes help increase ambient lighting. The increased light reflectivity makes this type of flooring ideal for retail outlets, showrooms, restaurants, office buildings, and manufacturing and warehouse facilities where a clean, bright and professional image is required.

Environmentally Friendly

Epoxy coatings are a green option as additional flooring materials are not required. Epoxy floors do not contain harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), unlike floor coverings such as carpeting, hardwood floors, and vinyl flooring materials.

The Basic Process

At Westrock, we use a dust-free industrial grinder to prepare your concrete floor. The grinding head consists of diamond (PCD) tooling that profiles your floor’s surface, preparing it for maximum adhesion. During the process, old stains and coatings are removed before any materials and epoxy are applied. Done properly, epoxy floor coatings are durable, waterproof, chemical resistant and long-lasting.
