Commercial epoxy floor coatings are extremely resistant to most hazards, including cleaners, gas, oil, transmission fluid, and even most industrial chemicals. Along with resisting damage from chemicals, an epoxy protective coating is water-resistant and heat resistant. This makes it an excellent choice for high-demand environments like auto shops, factories, labs, medical facilities, and retail stores.

One way to manage moisture vapor transmission in concrete is by installing a water-based epoxy system. Water based epoxy systems are breathable and can be applied to “green” concrete, allowing water vapor transmission to pass through the coating without affecting adhesion of the epoxy flooring system. No moisture testing is required, and we can install this system 7 days after a concrete floor is poured.
When it comes to durability, water-based epoxy technologies have improved dramatically over the last few decades. The durability and overall performance of these systems is comparable to the standard 100% solids epoxy systems and work best in light to medium duty applications. There are only a few types of environments with specific chemical or traffic exposure where the standard epoxy system would be better suited, but overall, a water-based or breathable epoxy system will maintain a high level of strength and durability.
Water-based coatings also have lower VOC levels making them a great option for occupied areas. The VOC properties of water-based epoxy systems are less than 100 g/L. This is an industry standard for what is considered a “low VOC” product.
Most Economical Flooring for Large Areas
Urethane concrete is one of the most affordable flooring for large spaces – 3,000 square foot areas and up. It produces a nice uniform finish that is easy to clean and comes in hundreds of colors. With its long lifespan, urethane concrete allows you to skip replacing your floors every few years – saving time and money. Often, it is the most economical option when you have a concrete subfloor – averaging $3-6 per square foot and no yearly maintenance – less expensive than most epoxy, vinyl, and tile flooring.
Impact and Chemical Resistant
Urethane flooring properties allow it to be very durable to impacts from heavy machinery and harsh chemicals – making it well-suited for the rugged requirements of airplane hangers, machine shops, and manufacturing facilities.
High Aesthetic Appeal
Urethane concrete flooring is great for hotels, stadiums, and assisted living facilities where high traffic areas need to be visually pleasing to customers. Durability meets customization with an almost limitless choice of colors. Urethane concrete comes in hundreds of colors and pigments can be added to create custom blends to match your environment’s decor or company branding. We recommend a UV-protected top coat to protect against fading or discoloration for any outdoor spaces or indoor areas with a prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Environmentally Safe
Urethane concrete flooring is environmentally-friendly and clean with no VOCs, so air quality is not compromised. It is safe enough to be used in residential settings. The flooring is also antimicrobial to protect against bacterial and fungal growth. You’ll never have to worry about toxic fumes after installation – ensuring the utmost safety for your customers and staff when operations resume.
Industrial and commercial protective coatings longevity is a big selling point for facility managers, business owners, and homeowners who want a low-cost and durable flooring solution that lasts. Depending on the application, protective floor coatings can last anywhere from 5 to 20+ years. Industrial protective floor coatings tend to have the shortest lifespan because they are exposed to frequent vehicle traffic, chemicals, and heavy loads, while a protective system in a residential basement can easily last decades.
