Most business owners will want their industrial flooring to last for at least several years. Flooring replacement is a costly business, both in terms of disruption to business and financially.
Adding a surface hardener to a floor can significantly increase the life of a concrete industrial flooring surface, with some hardeners being better than others, which is dependent on the hardener&#;s composition.
The type of industry will indicate what the flooring will need to do, as well as the potential threats to the surface. Industry type will identify hazards or environmental factors that could be present &#; extreme temperatures, moisture, oil, and solvents, for example. It could be that your flooring should be conductive, dissipative, or anti-static, or perhaps you require an anti-slip finish.
Abrasion damage is caused by items scraping the floor, whereas impact damage is a result of the floor experiencing heavy drops.
In some cases, there&#;s a risk of heavy goods, equipment, or tools being dropped onto the floor surface. In a warehouse setting, pallets and boxes can cause abrasive damage when they are dragged around.
Rubber tyres and pedestrian traffic will, for obvious reasons, cause minimal damage to a concrete floor &#; far less damage than hard steel wheels, for example. As a way of preventing premature wear, it&#;s necessary to be entirely realistic about the type of traffic the floor will endure.
If, at a future date, there may be a change of materials being handled and heavier vehicles are needed, then the worst-case scenario is best taken and specifications made accordingly.
Some industrial environments are in need of regular cleaning. This can be for aesthetic reasons, or it could be for reasons of hygiene standards. The industrial flooring you install might need to withstand frequent contact with cleaning chemicals.
KAIYAO supply professional and honest service.
In areas that experience heavy traffic or in fast-paced environments, it&#;s crucial to install epoxy and resin flooring. The protection this type of industrial flooring provides to concrete is not only mechanical, but these flooring surfaces offer chemical resistance as well.
Epoxy resin flooring is also the ideal choice when the demarcation of specific areas is needed. As an example, the demarcation of pedestrian areas for the storage of pallets and areas that experience high amounts of usage by forklift trucks.
These flooring systems also provide a seamless, easy-to-clean surface that will not harbour dirt and germs. These floor surfaces will be tolerant of regular detergent contact.

Can This Be Installed By First Time Users?Yes no experience needed to achieve professional results. This is a system designed for first time users and comes complete with everything you need to do the job properly the first time.
What Makes This Epoxy So Tough?
The easiest way to explain it is to think of it as the equivalent of hardened concrete for bunkers versus standard concrete. We chemically harden this epoxy so that it can withstand scratching, abrasion and high impacts better than any other epoxy flooring product.
How Long Does It Take To Install?It's relatively quick to install. Simply apply the primer and allow to dry 5-7 hours and then apply the Heavy Tonnage Epoxy. The epoxy will dry overnight where you can apply light traffic to it and heavy traffic after 24 hours. For faster applications where downtime is critical select the instant no-prep primer. This product saves a ton of time by allowing you to apply the primer over a minimally prepared floor and then apply the epoxy 20 minutes later!
What Applications Is It Used For?
As you can see from our customer photos it can go from dog kennels to resist scratching claws to nuclear power plants where the roll 200,000 lb turbines around like it's nothing. So this is extremely versatile and can be used just about anywhere. It's also very chemical resistant and can resist caustic washdowns. If you're not sure about you're application give us a call or shoot us an and one of our experts will guide you accordingly.
