About Epoxy Resin Floors

• Epoxy coatings are fantastic products that can
  create great seamless resinous floors.
• A range of self-smoothing pigmented Epoxy Resin
  floor screeds available in a wide range of
  colours. Suitable for areas subject to foot
  traffic, forklift and vehicular traffic, such as
  factories, garages, showrooms, workrooms and
  industrial applications.

• Make sure the substrate is compatible for epoxies
  both in terms of adhesion as well as tensile
  strength.
• For example never coat epoxy on wood!
• Wood is far more flexible than epoxies which
  leads to the epoxy cracking simply because it
  cannot follow the expansions of the wood floor.

  coating. Dont expect proper bonding otherwise.
