Floor Coating Options For Various Traffic Levels

Light Traffic

Industrial floors in areas that experience relatively light traffic then a liquid seal coating may be the appropriate choice for you and your floor. Liquid seals are good for protecting your floor against chips, scratches, flaking and damage from water. No need to overspend on a coat that does more than you need it to. Accurately assessing your needs can save you a lot of money.

Medium Traffic

If you have a floor that sees moderate or medium level traffic then you may want to consider the same liquid seal described above to get the base protection from chipping, flaking, scratching and water. Liquid seals can also protect against various chemicals, acids and sugars. Another option that should be considered are multi –layered floor coatings. These coatings add augmented levels of protection against the same elements as the liquid seal coat. Multi-layered floor coatings come in a variety of styles to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the space that they occupy.

Heavy Traffic

In areas or facilities that see heavy duty traffic should consider thick resin coatings. These coatings are 2-3 millimeters thick and off a tough, super resistant and resilient surface that will protect against chemical spills, chipping, flaking, acids and sugars. There are hygienic options that can kill bacteria available for sensitive facilities. There are options that can withstand extreme tempereatures and wear and tear from things like tires, preventing  marks from vehicle traffic. There are options that can be as thick as 9 millimeters.  These coats will last for a very long time, especially if they receive regular maintenance and upkeep.

There are many options available in the realm of floor coatings, including custom coats that can host designs as well as provide long lasting protective service for your facility. Do your research and you will find the right flooring option for you.
