Why Choose High Build Epoxy Coatings for Your Floors?
When it comes to flooring systems that can handle heavy-duty wear and tear, high build epoxy coatings stand out. Designed for durability, chemical resistance, and seamless finishes, these coatings are ideal for a wide range of commercial, industrial, and even residential applications. Here’s why high build epoxy coatings may be the best solution for your next flooring project.
What Is a High Build Epoxy Coating?
A high build epoxy is a 100% solids, self-leveling epoxy floor coating applied at a thickness of 10–30 mils (or more). Unlike thinner epoxy paints or coatings, high build epoxies offer a thicker layer of protection that can withstand aggressive environments and continuous traffic.
Key Benefits of High Build Epoxy Coatings
1. Exceptional Durability
High build epoxy coatings create a thick, tough surface that resists abrasion, impact, and wear. This makes them ideal for manufacturing plants, warehouses, garages, and other high-traffic spaces.
2. Chemical & Stain Resistance
These coatings are highly resistant to oils, chemicals, solvents, and stains, making them suitable for environments like labs, commercial kitchens, and auto repair shops.
3. Seamless & Easy to Clean
Applied in a continuous layer, high build epoxy creates a seamless surface with no joints or grout lines. This eliminates places for dirt and bacteria to hide, making cleaning and maintenance simple.
4. Glossy, Attractive Finish
Beyond performance, high build epoxy offers a sleek, high-gloss finish that enhances lighting and provides a professional look to any space.
5. Customizable Colors and Textures
Available in a wide range of colors and with optional decorative flakes or non-slip additives, epoxy floors can be customized to suit your space’s design and safety needs.
Ideal Applications
High build epoxy coatings are commonly used in:
- Industrial warehouses
- Food processing facilities
- Pharmaceutical plants
- Commercial garages and service bays
- Showrooms and retail stores
- Basements and residential garages
Long-Term Cost Savings
While the upfront investment may be higher than basic paints or sealers, the longevity and low maintenance costs of high build epoxy coatings result in long-term savings. These systems can last many years without needing replacement, reducing downtime and future repair costs.
