An Epoxy Floor System is absolutely the best floor covering you can install on your storage,warehouse or dry use facility because it offers unparallel protection for your substrate. Regardless of the substrate design in your shop, concrete or wood, a floor covering is chosen for the following reasons:
1) Substrate Protection
The ability to protect the substrate from fluid spills such as gas, oil, anti-freeze, brake fluid, battery acid, paint thinner, kerosene, diesel fuel and so on. A good shop flooring does not allow any fluids to penetrate the substrate.
2) Cleanability
The ability to clean the floor effectively with minimal effort regardless of how long a time may pass between cleanings. Spot cleaning or entire area cleaning should produce good results.
3) Curb Appeal
The value that a floor covering offers to the overall appearance of the shop. The appearance should also enhance and reflect the professionalism of the work being performed in the shop.
4) Durability
The toughness of the floor covering to withstand every day use and abuse. This comes in many forms such as chemical attack, impact resistance, flexural strength, compressive strength and thermal shock.
5) Cost Effective
There is more to think about than what a floor covering will set you back when first installed. The term 'You Get What You Pay For' is a hard lesson learned with many shop projects. If you save money installing a cheap floor covering that has to be redone then what have you saved? . The best way to be cost effective is to do it right the first time.
