• The application techniques we use with epoxy and urethane traffic topping flooring solutions play a significant role in achieving desired design effects. Our skilled flooring professionals employ various techniques to create stunning visuals, such as:

  • Swirling or marbling: By manipulating the epoxy or urethane materials during application, it is possible to create swirling or marbling effects on the floor. This technique combines different colors and patterns, resulting in a unique and organic design that resembles natural stone or abstract artwork.
  • Texture and depth: With the use of specialized rollers, trowels or brushes, texture and depth can be added to the epoxy or urethane traffic topping flooring solution. This creates visually interesting surfaces that can mimic the look of leather, sand or other textured materials.
  • Borders and patterns: Epoxy and urethane traffic topping flooring solutions can be used to create borders, patterns or geometric shapes on the floor. This technique allows for the delineation of different areas within a space or the creation of visual pathways, enhancing both the aesthetics and functionality of the flooring.
  • High gloss or matte finishes: The choice of finish can significantly impact the overall aesthetics of the flooring. Our epoxy and urethane traffic topping flooring solutions offer options for high gloss or matte finishes, allowing businesses to choose the level of shine that best suits their design vision. High gloss finishes create a reflective, polished look, while matte finishes provide a more subdued and sophisticated appearance.
