Epoxy resin flooring – case study 1

LSM Building Contractors, a construction company based in Reading, contacted Floortrak as they needed a new floor for their warehouse in North London. After a consultation discussing the clients’ needs, the experienced team at?Floortrak?advised upon installing a high build epoxy resin coating. The reason for this particular choice of industrial flooring was because the epoxy resin is tough, long-lasting, incredibly durable and more than capable of withstanding the demands of a busy warehouse that has a lot of both foot and machine traffic.

It was also important that the chosen floor was quick to install and use to minimise the impact on the operations of this busy company. Epoxy resin flooring comes in a range of finishes and colour options which means the client was able to choose a high gloss finish in an elegant grey colour that looks particularly striking in the vast warehouse.

The next example of how the benefits of epoxy resin flooring have been utilised in a real company comes from?Quick Machining, an engineering company in New Milton, Hampshire. One of the most important properties of the businesses new flooring was that it offered exceptional grip to help increase the safety of their staff, particularly as they work in an area handling oil and chemicals.

In response to this tough brief, the Floortrak team began by applying an oil tolerant primer to the concrete substrate to act as a protective layer in case of any chemical spills. We then installed two coats of high build epoxy resin flooring in light grey for the main workshop area, contrasted with Chelsea blue to create defined walkways. Quick Machining was delighted with the new epoxy flooring as it offers them the non-slip and chemical resistant surface they need.
