Heavy Duty Epoxy Floor Systems

Heavy Duty Epoxy Floor Systems

When it comes to tackling tough resurfacing projects, trowel-applied epoxy resurfacers are the go-to solution. These resurfacers consist of a powerful combination of three components: 100% solids epoxy resin, a catalyst, and carefully blended aggregates. This unique formulation ensures exceptional durability and strength.

Typically, these resurfacers are applied at thicknesses ranging from 187 mils (3/16 inch) to 250 mils (1/4 inch), although they can be layered even thicker if necessary. This versatility allows them to handle heavy-duty resurfacing tasks with ease, providing a long-lasting solution.

One important characteristic of trowel-applied epoxy resurfacers is their porosity. To enhance their performance and protect the underlying surface, it is crucial to apply an epoxy coating as a top coat. This additional layer acts as a protective barrier, preventing moisture penetration and further enhancing the durability of the resurfaced area.

Whether you need to resurface industrial floors, commercial spaces, or any other high-traffic areas, trowel-applied epoxy resurfacers are an ideal choice. With their robust composition and the ability to customize the thickness, they offer a reliable solution for even the most demanding resurfacing projects.

Some Typical Applications Include:

Polyurethane Modified Systems

Polyurethane Modified Systems

Polyurethane modified systems are highly durable and versatile coatings for concrete surfaces. They are composed of 100% solids, meaning they do not contain any solvents or volatile organic compounds. These systems are specifically designed to enhance the performance and longevity of concrete floors and are particularly effective in withstanding thermal shock.

The aromatic nature of these coatings refers to their chemical structure, which provides excellent resistance to UV radiation and color stability. This ensures that the coating maintains its appearance even when exposed to sunlight or other harsh environmental conditions.

Polyurethane modified systems can be applied in different forms depending on the desired thickness and application requirements. They can be used as a slurry broadcast, where the coating is spread evenly across the surface, or as a trowel-applied mortar, where it is applied with a trowel to achieve a thicker layer. The thickness of these systems can range from 125 mils (1/8th inch) to 250 mils (1/4 inch), providing a customizable solution for various needs.

One of the key advantages of this type of system is its relatively fast curing time. It typically takes around 12 hours for the coating to fully cure, allowing for quick turnaround times and minimizing disruptions to daily operations.

Overall, polyurethane modified systems offer exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and thermal shock resistance. They are an ideal choice for industrial and commercial settings where heavy traffic, harsh chemicals, and extreme temperature changes are common.

Some Typical Applications Include:

  • Coolers & Freezers
  • Kitchens

Methyl Methacrylate

Methyl Methacrylate Flooring Systems

Methyl Methacrylate, commonly referred to as MMA, is a versatile polymer flooring option that combines a dry powder hardener with a liquid resin. This unique combination allows MMA systems to be customized in terms of thickness and color, offering a wide range of possibilities for various applications.

However, when working with MMA systems, it is crucial to ensure proper ventilation. The material emits a strong odor, which can be unpleasant and potentially harmful if inhaled in high concentrations. Adequate ventilation helps to dissipate the odor and maintain a safe working environment.

One of the remarkable features of MMA flooring is its fast curing time. Despite the strong odor, MMA has the ability to cure within just an hour, even at extremely low temperatures. This quick curing process allows for efficient installation and minimizes downtime, making it a popular choice for projects that require fast turnaround times.

In conclusion, Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) is a polymer flooring system that offers versatility in terms of thickness and color options. While proper ventilation is essential due to its strong odor, the material's ability to cure quickly at low temperatures makes it a desirable choice for projects that demand efficiency.

Some Typical Applications Include:

  • Freezers
  • Kitchens
  • Laboratories
  • Food Plants
