What is the best industrial flooring option?

Industrial flooring needs to be tough, durable, safe and practical. Whether epoxy resin flooring is best for the job depends on the activity that is carried out in the building, but it is safe to say that when the floor is being laid, there must be minimal disruption to production.

To meet the demands of industrial settings, flooring must possess qualities such as toughness, durability, safety, and practicality. The suitability of epoxy resin flooring depends on the specific activities conducted within the building. However, it is crucial to ensure that the flooring installation process causes minimal interference with production.

As the contracting arm of Robex, leading manufacturer of epoxy floor coatings, we always recommend Robex products which are suitable for a range of heavy use environments. All Robex products are quick drying and can be applied overnight and at weekends to minimise disruption.

General environments

The most durable product is the Robex Super Build Epoxy Liquid Floor Tile which is hard wearing enough to last for more than 20 years in the majority of service conditions. It’s resistant to abrasions and impact and has good chemical resistance. You’ll only need a covering of a thickness of between 2 and 4mm on top of a primer. The product comes in five different colours which means you can use different colours for different activity areas.

Aggressive and ‘food safe’ environments

If you are looking for a hygienic resin floor screed, Robex’s Epoxy Floor Coating is the perfect solution. It can be applied over the top of your existing floor coatings and can be used over underfloor heating. It is solvent free, ‘food safe’ and has excellent chemical resistance properties. Available in nine different colours making it easy to differentiate activity areas.

Industrial, laboratories, food and drink plants, warehouses

If you need a heavy duty rapid curing floor coating for industrial use, the Robex Super Build Epoxy Rapid is a high build resin that is five times thicker than a normal coating, with excellent abrasion and chemical resistance. Comes in a choice of eight colours.

Concrete Seal Flooring

If you have concrete flooring, the best way of protecting it is with Robex Super Build Epoxy Clear, a solvent-free resin that protects your concrete surface from general contamination, as well as providing resistance to oil, petrol and chemicals. Depending on the porosity of the concrete, you will normally only need to apply one coat.

Anti-slip Flooring

Non-slip floor surfaces are a vital element in keeping people safe. The Robex Clear Epoxy Anti-Slip coating contains glass beads and can be used on the majority of surfaces, including marble, ceramic, quarry and terrazzo tiles, without changing the appearance of the substrate. It is ideal for use at step edges.

All Robex floor coverings are easy to clean and maintain. If you would like to find out more about industrial flooring, please contact us to see how we can help.
