How the Condition and Use of Your Industrial Flooring Determines How to Polish and Maintain Them

The term ​“indus­tri­al floor­ing” refers to a wide vari­ety of floor­ing mate­ri­als and con­fig­u­ra­tions used in var­i­ous indus­tri­al set­tings. Despite the wide range of spe­cif­ic uses for indus­tri­al floors, how­ev­er, every type of floor must receive reg­u­lar main­te­nance that’s suit­ed for its pur­pos­es. Team­ing up with a knowl­edge­able part­ner like Kaloutas who under­stands the needs of your floor­ing will help ensure that your floors remain safe, func­tion­al, and beau­ti­ful for years to come. Here’s how the con­di­tion and use of your indus­tri­al floor­ing can deter­mine how to care for and improve them.

What to Know About Indus­tri­al Floor Maintenance

Improp­er Main­te­nance Can Mean Exten­sive Repairs

Pre­ven­ta­tive main­te­nance is cru­cial for keep­ing your facility’s many mov­ing parts oper­a­tional, and your indus­tri­al floors are no excep­tion. Rou­tine main­te­nance tasks like sweep­ing and mop­ping and peri­od­ic duties like con­crete resur­fac­ing and touch-ups keep dust, debris, mois­ture, and chem­i­cals from lin­ger­ing on your floors and con­tribut­ing to deep­er issues. Neglect­ing these pro­to­cols can cre­ate trip­ping haz­ards (e.g., cracks, slip­pery sur­faces), reduce your facility’s indoor air qual­i­ty, and under­mine the integri­ty and appear­ance of your floors over­all. Fix­ing these issues requires the nec­es­sary resources and funds, which can inter­fere with your nor­mal oper­a­tions. For­tu­nate­ly, Kaloutas is well-equipped to work with your sched­ule and around your staff to min­i­mize cost and down­time. This way, even if your floors need seri­ous repairs, you won’t have to sac­ri­fice too much of your bot­tom line.

Mak­ing a Main­te­nance Plan for Your Facility’s Floor­ing

While the indus­tri­al floor con­trac­tors at Kaloutas can pro­vide cost-effec­tive and effi­cient floor­ing repairs when need­ed, it would be bet­ter not to need these major repairs again down the line. Since the pri­ma­ry rea­son for these large repairs is a lack of prop­er main­te­nance, it only makes sense that devis­ing a thor­ough main­te­nance plan for your indus­tri­al floor­ing will great­ly reduce the fre­quen­cy, size, and cost of future floor­ing repairs. This is why at Kaloutas, we offer more than mere repair ser­vices; we work close­ly with each of our clients to bet­ter grasp their facility’s sched­ule, peo­ple, oper­a­tional needs, and floor types. This way, we can come up with a cus­tom main­te­nance plan that keeps your floors in great shape with­out get­ting in the way of your day-to-day activ­i­ties, sav­ing you time, mon­ey, and future headaches.

Know­ing the Needs of Your Indus­tri­al Floors

Like we said before, no two indus­tri­al floors or facil­i­ties are exact­ly alike. One facil­i­ty might con­tain or seek pol­ished con­crete floors while anoth­er might pre­fer epoxy indus­tri­al floor coat­ings to suit their bud­get and aes­thet­ics. Every option has its pros and cons; the trick is under­stand­ing what a par­tic­u­lar facil­i­ty needs and pro­vid­ing the right floor­ing and main­te­nance options to achieve those goals. Whether you’re con­cerned about high­ly reflec­tive floors, non-slip sur­faces, low-main­te­nance coat­ings, mois­ture-resis­tant floor­ing, all of the above, or some­thing else, Kaloutas has the exper­tise and resources to install, main­tain, and repair any and all kinds of indus­tri­al floor­ing. And what­ev­er the specifics may be, the floor­ing solu­tions we offer will save you time and mon­ey while reduc­ing employ­ee injury and sick days by cul­ti­vat­ing a safer and clean­er workplace.

Do More for Your Floors

Indus­tri­al floor­ing of all kinds requires reg­u­lar and peri­od­ic care to pre­vent a num­ber of prob­lems that can extract time and mon­ey from your busi­ness. More­over, dif­fer­ent facil­i­ties have dif­fer­ent floor­ing needs, which trans­lates to dif­fer­ent types of main­te­nance, pol­ish­ing, and coat­ing. At Kaloutas, we know the ins and outs of indus­tri­al floor­ing to help make your facil­i­ty safer, more secure, and more effi­cient.
