There are very few places where epoxy flooring coatings are not the ideal surface. In any working environment, the mix of smooth surface and a wall to wall seamless finish has ensured epoxy flooring as the first choice for all industrial and hard-working interiors.

Save the trees
The downturn in the global economy is helping the environment; fewer people are driving cars and fewer people have the money for hardwood floors, resulting in fewer ancient trees being chain-sawed. Epoxy floor coatings may not offer the grand prestige of a hardwood floor, but the surface is smooth, non-slip and seamless. In film studios, epoxy flooring coatings are painted with special dyes to create the impression of a wooden floor or a vinyl floor. The anti slip floor coating provides an excellent surface for actors to walk on; it looks good on camera and is ideal for motorised vehicles such as forklift trucks.
More typical of the uses that industrial epoxy coatings can be put to, include all forms of warehousing whether it is a cash and carry establishment or an aircraft hangar. To describe epoxy and urethane floor coverings as tough may be a bit of an understatement when you consider that giant-sized jetliners can be safely rolled across resin floors. If oil leaks out, the floors are non-porous and so exceptionally easy to keep clean.
Super flooring for supermarkets
If ever there was a need for anti slip floor coating, it is in supermarkets where cloths and buckets are always out and about mopping up dropped cartons that split on landing. Epoxy resin floors are seamless and can be fitted into the most interesting of spaces to provide wall to wall fitting that helps to ensure that unwelcome visitors such as mice are kept out. In all areas of food preparation, it is the opportunity for maintaining exceptional levels of food hygiene that ensure the popularity of epoxy industrial coatings. Hospitals are particularly hardwearing environments and for many years vinyl covered concrete floors were the only option; when the vinyl cracked, the risk of tripping increased and the scope for a build up of dirt also increased. Epoxy and urethane floors offer a perfect surface that is non-slip, smooth, seamless and can come in a variety of colours. The floors can also be painted so that directions can be easily followed by visitors. If, at any time a floor cracks through building movement caused by settlement, the floor can be repaired to leave a smooth finish.
Where people go
An organisation is often judged by the quality of its lavatories but keeping lavatories clean when they are used by numerous people can be a challenge. Epoxy and urethane floors provide the ideal surface for ensuring that any mishaps can be thoroughly cleaned-up. It is the seamless, wall to wall, non-porous quality of the epoxy surface that makes it such a perfect floor covering. The epoxy resin can be sealed around lavatories and also around pipes, ensuring that if there is a flood, no water drips through to the floor below.
Tough, resilient, flexible in fitting and suitable for almost all situations, epoxy makes for very good, inexpensive and swift to install, flooring.
