Commercial & Residential Services

Epoxy flooring is a popular option for both commercial and residential spaces due to its durability, aesthetic appeal, and versatility. Here’s an overview of the key differences and applications in both settings:

1. Commercial Epoxy Flooring

• Durability & Strength: Designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, machinery, and chemical spills, making it ideal for warehouses, factories, hospitals, and retail spaces.
• Slip Resistance: Additional slip-resistant additives can be incorporated, which is important in environments like kitchens or medical facilities.
• Chemical Resistance: Many industrial-grade epoxies are resistant to chemicals, oil, and solvents, ideal for environments like labs or factories.
• Maintenance: Easy to clean, reducing the need for frequent repairs or deep cleaning.

Common Commercial Applications:

• Manufacturing Plants: Withstand heavy machinery and chemical exposure.
• Retail Spaces: Provide a sleek, polished look and can handle constant foot traffic.
• Food Preparation Areas: Epoxy is perfect for this job. It will pass any Health Department inspection because of it’s totally seamless application which, unlike other flooring products, has no exposed joints for bacteria to hide.
• Hospitals/Clinics: Seamless finish is hygienic and resistant to bacteria and spills.
• Parking Garages/Car Dealerships: High-strength and chemical-resistant to oils and other fluids.

2. Residential Epoxy Flooring

• Aesthetics: Homeowners often choose epoxy for its glossy finish and wide range of design possibilities, such as metallic epoxy for a modern look or colour flakes for a more textured finish.
• Garage Flooring: One of the most common uses in residential spaces is for garage floors due to its ability to resist oil stains, tyre marks, and moisture.
• Basements and Laundry Rooms: Epoxy is resistant to moisture, making it a great choice for basements or laundry rooms where water damage is a concern.
• Safety & Comfort: While durable, residential epoxy flooring can also be customized with anti-slip additives to ensure safety.

Common Residential Applications:

• Garages: Durable against car fluids, heavy tools, and foot traffic.
• Basements: Moisture-resistant and prevents mould growth.
• Outdoor Patios: UV-resistant epoxy coatings can be applied outdoors for a durable surface.
• Living Areas: Modern designs (e.g., metallic, marble-look) are becoming popular in high-traffic areas for a sleek look.

Benefits of Epoxy Flooring (Commercial & Residential)

• Durability: Long-lasting and resistant to wear and tear.
• Low Maintenance: Easy to clean and maintain, especially in high-traffic areas.
• Waterproof & Resistant: Protects against water, chemicals, and stains.
• Customizable: Available in a variety of colours, patterns, and finishes.
