EPOXY FLOORING & EPOXY COATING OPTIONS

Epoxy flooring has been the mainstay of cost effective seamless poured floor choices for decades and with a wide range of colours and its attractive, gloss finish, quality epoxy finishes stand the test of time.

From garage floors to heavy duty, chemical resistance applications, epoxy resin floor paints, floor coating and toppings can protect your concrete floor as they are water resistant and can withstand heavy traffic and wear and tear.

You are not limited to just paint either. With easily modified curing time of up to 24 hours and standard colours through to RAL, BS and Pantone references, your epoxy flooring system will be a perfect fit for your environment, needs and budget.

Modern epoxy flooring systems are solvent free and offer a solution that is easy to clean and maintain and highly recommended where a high gloss finish is required.

Our operatives are trained to apply damp proof membranes, primers, resin coat and coatings, toppings and industrial epoxy flooring that will provide an economic floor finish that will improve aesthetics immediately.

Even our epoxy floor paint and epoxy resin floor coatings will change the look of basic concrete and industrial floors dramatically for the lowest possible outlay.

Let’s take a look at the type of epoxy we can install for your next project:

Epoxy Resin Floor Coatings

Water Based Coatings – Easy to install water-bourne satin floor sealers and coatings typically 100 microns per coat – clear or coloured and better than most standard garage flooring paints.
Solvent Free Coatings – High build coatings typically gloss 400 microns in 2 coats – smooth & slip resistant paint coating options.
High Grip Floor Coatings – Build up system typically 3 coats in a floor kit with anti-slip epoxy paint finish.
Thin Section Flake – Base coat and clear top coat with PVA flake broadcast for a high quality, decorative finish.

Epoxy Floor Toppings

Flow Applied Epoxy Resin Flooring – Epoxy resin floor systems applied traditionally from 1mm to 3mm in high gloss.
Seamless Epoxy Terrazzo – 6-8mm seamless diamond polished epoxy terrazzo floors.

The Importance of Surface Preparation

The correct floor preparation is the key to the application of any epoxy floor system. Whether it’s a small restaurant or a large warehouse coating project, we focus the same level of attention to each.

All resin systems rely on a mechanical bond to the substrate for a key, and for long term performance. Without good surface preparation the capital you expend on your flooring project is wasted.

Generally we prefer vacuum controlled diamond grinding to attain the best possible surface profile whilst giving the highest pull of readings. This means we can work in your premises whilst other areas are live without giving issues such as dust transfer and noise intrusion. Our machines even collect and bag their own dust so the process is further managed to ensure that we have the very best outcome on every floor.

For larger areas that already have a textured finish or have thicker systems to remove we may use captive shot blasting or planing as an alternative. We always produce risk assessments and method statements so you can be sure we are looking out for the well being of everyone involved in the project.

We even manage the transition form internal to external using trolleys designed to carry our equipment and waste to eliminate heavy lifting or carrying for our operatives.

How Long Does It Take To Install

While every project is different, typically for an epoxy coating project up to 500m2, we can usually prepare the floor using our diamond grinding method and on the same day delivery of our resins and hardeners will complete. From there we can install a standard cure high build floor paint within 48 hours to hand back.

Ecoflor will undertake all of the floor zone works from preparation, floor repairs, levelling and floor system installation so you can have piece of mind we have everything covered.

What Epoxy Flooring Colours Are Available

Most of our epoxy flooring systems have a standard colour range usually in shades that are regular installed to enable us to offer standardised pricing.

With most seamless systems however, and especially flow applied and floor coating variants, we can tint these systems to most RAL, Pantone and NCS colour references at additional cost so in reality there is no boundary to your imagination. You can even have your new floors colour matched to your corporate colour schemes. With the emergence of metallic epoxy, colour choice is ever expanding.
