Toronto Warehouse Epoxy Flooring
Call Us: (855)262-8797
The warehouse is the beating heart of any distribution or manufacturing business. A busy warehouse is one of the most demanding flooring environments out there. Pallet trucks, HGVs, pallet trucks, fork trucks and stillages shift heavy loads up to 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In addition, thousands of people across Canada are working in warehouses night and day. So, with so many different floor solutions available, why should you choose COAT Systems epoxy warehouse flooring?
Benefits of Epoxy Flooring
- UV Protective Coating – When an epoxy floor is exposed to sunlight, it will fade and be yellow. It’s a chemical reaction when the epoxy is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. COAT Systems used a UV protective coating to prevent your flooring from yellowing or fading for years to come.
- Scratch-Resistance – Epoxy flooring is exceptionally scratch-resistant due to the composition of the epoxy ingredients. Some additional coatings and topcoats can increase how resistant the floor is to scratches and abrasions.
- Highly Durability – Epoxy flooring is one of the most durable floorings available today. It is incredibly resistant to chemicals, stains, scratches, and cracks.
- Stronger than a concrete floor – Compression strength is a flooring system’s capacity to withstand a constant load. Concrete generally has 4,000 psi. Epoxy flooring installed by COAT Systems can reach and exceed 10,000 psi. Hardness is also measured to indicate a flooring’s resistance to objects falling from a distance. On a scale of 1-to-100, concrete rates are in the 50-60 range, and an epoxy floor receives a rating in the upper 80s. Epoxy floors are much more resistant to objects falling and creating divots than concrete floors.
- Aesthetically Pleasing – Standard epoxy floor coatings can be in glossy, bright colours, ideal for creating large expanses of aesthetically pleasing, smooth flooring. Many designers use the application method of resin systems to segment the floor area into different zones of colour to create engaging and dynamic visual effects. This segmentation approach is also excellent for bringing multiple brand colours into the floor’s design scheme or highlighting particular site parts.
- Chemical Resistant – Epoxy flooring is incredibly durable and chemical resistant against gas, coolant, oils and household chemicals.
- Waterproof – Epoxy flooring protects against water and prevents the infinite amount of damage that water can cause on a concrete floor.
- Food-safe – CFIA and Health Canada have approved many types of epoxy flooring for use around food. Epoxy flooring installed by COAT Systems works great to withstand acids and alkalis. It can stand up to abrasive cleaning, making it an excellent investment for areas where food is being handled.
- Non-slip – COAT Systems can add a skid-resistant additive to the topcoat to make the floor safe, even when wet.
Epoxy Flooring Design Options
Epoxy floors and epoxy coatings are becoming very popular in the GTA. There are various types and kinds of epoxy floorings to choose from. Here’s a list and the qualities of a dozen different kinds of epoxy flooring design options.
Self-dispersing Coating Floor Epoxy is typically used in areas that will receive heavy truck traffic or forklift activity because it has excellent mechanical strength. Self-dispersing floor epoxy can also make this coating with quartz sand, which works great in food processing plants or locations with liquids because it has excellent anti-slip qualities.
Self-levelling Coating Floor Epoxy creates a smooth, seamless surface and is easy to install over old or new concrete floors. Self-levelling epoxy coating can be used in almost any space you can imagine.
Mortar Coating Floor Epoxy is the strongest coating of all epoxy floors. It is generally used in heavy industrial areas and can repair the cracks in other epoxy floors before laying different epoxy coatings.
Gravel Coating Floor Epoxy is an epoxy coating that is the most decorative choice and can be used to add decorative details, brand marks, and even logotypes to any epoxy floor.
Terrazzo Coating Floor Epoxy is also decorative and easy to clean. Larger areas like entrances and hallways in schools or office buildings are ideal spaces for terrazzo. Terrazzo coatings are also beautiful for entryways of homes and larger dining rooms.
Anti-static Coating Floor Epoxy is used in static-sensitive areas where electronic components are in permanent use. A static-free environment is vital for places like hospitals, laboratories, and electronic manufacturing plants.
Vapour Barrier Coating Floor Epoxy is applied on the top of concrete floors to give an impenetrable surface that reduces vapour transmissions. This coating is usually added before the final flooring surface, like hardwood floors, tile, and carpet.
Flaked Coating Floor Epoxy is a style of applying a decorative coating to an epoxy floor. It adds multi-coloured chips or flakes into the layer while wet to give it a decorative look when finished.
100% Solids Coatings Floor Epoxy is the most durable epoxy material. This flooring will last decades, even when used for heavy human traffic areas where surfaces need protection from possible abrasions, chemical reactions of chemical substances and hot tire marks. The epoxy flooring is installed using hardeners that allow the coating to dry into a solid form while it bonds with the concrete.
Water-Based Coating Floor Epoxy is more primer and sealer than actual flooring because it spreads thinly and doesn’t possess the same resistance and durability as 100% solid coating. Because of its ability to penetrate a porous surface is typically used as a sealer or primer over degreased concrete surfaces. It gives concrete a smooth and glossy texture and protects against abrasions, chemical reactions, and stains.
Solvent-Based Coating Floor Epoxy uses solvents when it is used as a floor primer and sealer, just like the water-based type. Solvent-based epoxies will contain solids that range from 30% to 70%, which gives you a really thin layer.
