WAREHOUSE FLOORING

While industrial and commercial facilities have many floor finish options, epoxy flooring remains the best option.

ENHANCED APPEARANCE – In most cases, warehouses don’t require creative décor and an appealing design. It is possible to cover the boring, ugly concrete floor with epoxy floor coatings in a variety of colors and styles, as well as minor imperfections like superficial cracks, to change its appearance. With a high-gloss finish, not only will your warehouse look well-kept, but also it will add class.

EASY MAINTENANCE – A warehouse epoxy floor improves both the appearance and the durability of your concrete floor by making it impervious to stains and dust, and easy to clean. As a result, you will not be exposed to bacteria that typically grow on porous surfaces. To get sparkling, bacteria-free floors, all you need to do is mop the floor with an antimicrobial solution.

IMPRESSIVE DURABILITY – Despite heavy foot traffic and the use of warehouse equipment such as forklifts, epoxy floor coatings offer a durable, long-lasting flooring solution that does not show any signs of wear and tear. Epoxy flooring solutions also make concrete floors chemical-resistant, saving businesses thousands in floor repair costs.

COST EFFECTIVENESS – Epoxy flooring is the most cost-effective option due to its low price, long lifespan, and resistance to impact damage. It can also be applied to different thicknesses, making it appropriate for a range of applications.

IMPROVED SAFETY – Epoxy flooring products are developed for safety with slip resistance and impact resistance in mind. The use of different colours in your warehouse can also be used to highlight different zones, such as work zones, forklift traffic zones, and safety zones. The application of an epoxy coating to your concrete floors will also help prevent concrete dusting, a condition that occurs when unsealed, porous concrete floor surfaces collapse under traffic.

MINIMUM BUSINESS DISRUPTION – It is fast and easy to install epoxy floor coatings, so your business operations will not be interrupted for a long time. Within 24-48 hours, you can resume normal warehouse operations after the floor has dried completely.

Storage facilities, warehouses, and other storage areas will have specific flooring requirements based on the products being stored. The flooring in most warehouses needs to be durable, abrasion-resistant and able to take heavy loads and vehicle traffic. However, some warehouses have specific needs. It may be crucial to maintain the temperature below a certain level in facilities storing food and beverages, for instance. It is therefore imperative that the flooring system chosen has the ability to weather extreme temperatures as well as temporal variations.

Similarly, other warehouses may house hazardous materials like flammables and explosives. A spilled or exposed chemical product may be corrosive, toxic or volatile. The nature of these substances may dictate the need for a warehouse floor that provides superior chemical resistance, reduces static electricity buildup, or otherwise contributes to a safer and more stable environment in which to store these products.

The warehouse flooring system must be designed to handle not only the practical demands that its products place on it, but also the safety of the people who will work on it. In areas frequented by employees, slip resistance is crucial. Government regulations may also govern aisle delineation colors, stripes, directional markings, and other aspects of a flooring system, to establish an industry-wide standard and enhance worker safety. It is possible to customize and install epoxy and other resinous floor coatings in multiple colours as part of ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
