Epoxy flooring is more than a buzzword. It represents a range of possibilities when it comes to facility improvement. Floor coatings can be customized according to what each facility needs to be as strong, as durable, and as resistant to deterioration as possible, no matter the environment. Leaders trust epoxy floors in every industry to keep them and their workforce safer while doing business.
“Epoxy” or “epoxies” can refer to any of a range of coatings that are engineered to create a barrier between the surfaces they’re protecting and anything that comes in contact with that surface. Epoxy paint for concrete floors contains a resin and a hardening agent. When cured, the reaction between these components makes the coated floor extremely durable and damage-resistant.
Epoxy is applied to commercial flooring, similar to how paint is applied to walls and ceilings. Seamless coating application is essential since an epoxy floor can’t be “uncured” once the curing begins.
Aside from being a very practical commercial interior painting service that immediately improves the aesthetics of your space, epoxy floor coating is a good investment that helps minimize undue labor costs.
Here are the biggest benefits our commercial and industrial facility managers have observed in terms of labor cost reduction after their epoxy flooring installation:
Lower Liability: One of the biggest benefits of commercial epoxy floor coating is that it offers non-slip surfaces. This additional traction means slip and fall reduction, which keeps people safe in your facility while keeping liability costs lower.
Improved Visibility: Epoxy coatings increase reflectivity in a space, improving overall visibility and increasing the efficacy of natural light. This could lower energy costs in spaces you have to keep lit for team members and visitors.
Easier Sanitation: Instead of dirt, debris, and moisture seeping into the floor, getting trapped, and being spread by foot traffic, these hazards rest on top of epoxy floors. This makes keeping them clean and sanitized easier, improving the hygiene and cleanliness of your entire space. All of this results in fewer employee sick days, injuries, and turnover, which means overall cost savings for your facility.
Durability: More durable flooring means lower risk of flooring damage and deterioration. When flooring remains strong, operations keep moving. There are no added costs related to downtime, repairs, or rerouting people and equipment.
One of the most important decisions to make is working with a commercial interior painting and epoxy flooring contractor you can trust. Incomplete curing, incorrect application, and seams in the flooring all mean spending more time and money than you planned on facility improvements.
