Epoxy floor coatings are typically two-part systems consisting of a Part A resin and Part B hardener. Specialty additives like flow control, UV inhibitors, adhesion promoters, accelerators, etc, are added to create coatings that perform well in a wide variety of flooring applications. Using these specialty additives, epoxy floor coatings are formulated to achieve different desired performance characteristics like a more rapid cure, increased abrasion resistance, higher chemical resistance, higher or lower viscosity, and many others. Different pigments, decorative colored quartz aggregate, vinyl flakes, glitter, and other additives are added to the epoxy floor resin to achieve a different performance and aesthetic characteristics. Lastly, different types of aggregate sand blends (slurry, trowel, broadcast, etc) can also be added to the epoxy as well to create thicker, more durable flooring systems, and add non-slip texture. Epoxy Floor Coatings are an extremely versatile flooring option and can be made and applied in a large variety of performance and aesthetic characteristics.
Epoxy is easy-to-maintain flooring with fewer drawbacks and more benefits. Epoxy is a thermosetting resin often applied as a protective and decorative coating over concrete flooring. The durable and robust nature of epoxy makes it a desirable option for various flooring applications. Epoxy coating over concrete provides a high-performance, smooth, and durable surface that lasts for many years with the ability to withstand heavy loads. Epoxy flooring is superior to tiles as it is stain and dust-resistant. If you are looking for an easy to maintain, long-lasting, aesthetically appealing floor then you may opt for epoxy.
