It takes a special kind of floor coating to withstand the harsh conditions of food processing.  Standard epoxy coatings simply can’t hold up under the constant exposure to acidic sugars and fats, harsh sanitizing chemicals, and the thermal shock of steam cleaning.

A commercial kitchen floor or food plant floor with cracks and deterioration is considered unsafe and unhygienic.  Government inspectors can impose fines — or even a shutdown — until corrections are made.  The durability and unique high performance properties of cementitious urethane concrete floor refinishing can keep the threat at bay.

So next time you raid the kids’ sugary stash, remember what unlikely “ingredients” helped make that sweet bite possible – FloroCrete concrete resurfacing!

Schools and district offices can keep maintenance budgets under control with durable and aesthetically-pleasing floor coating ideas.  Attractive, hard-working commercial flooring choices for classrooms, hallways and offices, laboratories and shops, computer and electronics rooms, food prep areas and cafeterias, restrooms, locker rooms and recreational floors abound!

Take a look at our Top Five Choices for Educational Facilities:

Colored Quartz/ MMA (methyl methacrylate) or Epoxy Flooring: Decorative, multi-colored quartz aggregate is embedded in clear resin.  The typical “orange peel” finish offers just the right amount of skid-resistance, balanced with cleanability.  Get the strength of industrial flooring and the beauty of decorative concrete. Colored Chip/ MMA or Epoxy Coatings: Colored chip blends or solids encapsulated in clear or colored resin floors.  Skid-resistance designed to your requirements.  Achieve the look of high end terrazzo industrial resin floors at a mere fraction of the cost. Solid Colored Concrete Sealer: Match your school colors, install the team logo, add safety markings or delineate hallway traffic areas.   Unmatched durability, customizable skid-resistance, and a variety of gloss levels and colors available.  Also formulated in ESD (electrostatic dissipative) industrial floor paint to safeguard expensive electronic equipment – and students – in computer and electronics labs. Shop Floor: Solid-colored concrete resurfacing incorporates sand aggregate for extra strength.  Its high impact resistance allows tools and other heavier items to be dropped without damaging the concrete epoxy. Commercial Kitchen Floor: Typical commercial vinyl flooring performs poorly in fry lanes and walk-in coolers.  The grease, moisture, temperature fluctuation and harsh sanitation techniques cause severe deterioration to the majority of concrete floor refinishing materials on the market.   Not so with a solid-colored urethane concrete floor – the number one choice of industrial floor coverings in the food and beverage industry.

A variety of exceptionally chemical and abrasion resistant topcoats are available for all of the above.  Make your facility the pride of the community!  Find out how these self-leveling concrete options might be the low-maintenance, long-lasting, school floors you’ve been waiting for.

When you’re not busy installing commercial flooring, you’re out beating the pavement, setting up the next epoxy flooring job.  One of the most versatile floor coatings, as well as the most popular among facility owners, is the FloroQuartz System (talk about high performance design possibilities!).

Getting a building owner interested in this attractive industrial flooring, with its multi-colored quartz aggregate and clear epoxy paint, has always been easy.  The hard part was leaving the customer with a good representation of the decorative concrete until your next visit.

Cured concrete epoxy samples are indispensable.  Yet thick, heavy samples can be cumbersome, especially when materials must be passed to multiple decision makers within large companies. And epoxy floor brochures never quite captured the color and detail properly – until now.

 

Order your free FloroQuartz brochures via email or call us at 1-800-FLOROCK (356-7625). If you need commercial floor coatings, call us.
