Over time epoxy flooring has emerged as a wonderful floor coating option. Epoxy is a material formed by mixing hardening chemical and liquid polymer resin. It is usually poured over concrete flooring to prevent it from any kind of wear and tear. But these days it is also done on wood and other base material. People have also started installing complete epoxy flooring. According to epoxy flooring contractors, epoxy flooring finds great use in industrial buildings. Since in it non-slippery, resistant to most chemicals and have anti-static qualities, it is very useful in the food industry, chemical industry, and electronic industry where electronic equipment may get damaged due to the presence of electric charge. It also increases the durability of the flooring by many folds and considerably reduces the maintenance required. Let us have a look at different kinds of epoxy flooring used in industrial and residential buildings. - According to epoxy coating contractors in Huntsville, AL, contractors often mix color chips, sand, or other hard plastic pieces to an epoxy solution to increase its traction and make it non-slippery. Such kind of flooring is found to be very useful in the food industry where spillage of oil and food can make the floor slippery. Quartz sand is used to increase the traction of the epoxy flooring.
- Another variety of epoxy flooring is epoxy terrazzo, mortar epoxy, and graveled epoxy. To create a marble-like effect on epoxy flooring contractors mix contrast color hard plastic chips in the epoxy solution. According to epoxy flooring companies, such kind of flooring is usually installed in the garages of private homes. It is a economic alternative of otherwise expensive marble flooring.
- According to experts of commercial and industrial epoxy flooring, epoxy flooring can also be used in creating logos of the companies. On the addition of color pigments to the epoxy solution, they develop beautiful solid hues which are also opaque. Such colored epoxy solutions can be used in creating the logo of the company on the floor.
Epoxy floors are not limited to industrial buildings. They have found great use in residential buildings. They are being used in areas like the entry of the house, bathroom, and kitchen. Tiles of the epoxy solution are being manufactured for installation in different areas of the residential home. Since epoxy flooring has a cushioned layer, it can be used in places where there is heavy human traffic and people have to stand for long hours like in the kitchen.
