Transforming and Protecting Floors with an Epoxy Coating in New England

We’ve men­tioned in the past just how valu­able an epoxy floor coat­ing sys­tem can be for a huge vari­ety of com­mer­cial and indus­tri­al envi­ron­ments. You can check that post out here!

Just as a refresh­er, here are the main ben­e­fits of an epoxy-coat­ed floor system:

• Can be applied over con­crete, met­al, and even pre­vi­ous­ly coat­ed floors
• Easy to clean
• Low odor
• Impact resis­tant
• Avail­able in a vari­ety of colors
• Resists abra­sion

What Is Epoxy Floor­ing Used For?

Epoxy floor­ing is per­fect in com­mer­cial and indus­tri­al set­tings, such as plants, facil­i­ties, and ware­hous­es. These coat­ings offer mois­ture resis­tance, a bar­ri­er against chem­i­cal spills, and can han­dle the weight of com­mer­cial equip­ment and machin­ery. They are easy to clean and main­tain and offer sev­er­al styles, giv­ing your facil­i­ty a more tai­lored, aes­thet­i­cal­ly pleas­ing appear­ance. Cer­tain styles offer more reflec­tiv­i­ty to add vis­i­bil­i­ty, ensur­ing your employ­ees are safe on the job. This reflec­tiv­i­ty also reduces the need for bright lights, reduc­ing elec­tric costs for you.

No mat­ter where you might be locat­ed in the coun­try, the above ben­e­fits have a uni­ver­sal kind of val­ue. But here in New Eng­land, they take on a whole new mean­ing, and espe­cial­ly dur­ing the win­ter! The last month or so has dropped an incred­i­ble amount of snow over the New Eng­land area (and else­where!), and often­times the floor­ing in your indus­tri­al or com­mer­cial envi­ron­ment bears the brunt of the dam­age from both excess mois­ture and the abra­sive nature of the sand and salt being tracked in.

Plan­ning ahead and talk­ing to an indus­tri­al floor­ing expert near you about installing an epoxy floor sys­tem is a won­der­ful way to make a small invest­ment in floor main­te­nance that will pay a big return.

We also want­ed to share some dras­tic before and after pho­tos from a project we com­plet­ed a lit­tle while back. Take a look at the brief slideshow above, and notice what a huge change was made. The sur­face leaps from being dam­aged, worn down, and unsight­ly, to bright, fresh, pro­tect­ed, and much more efficient.
