Are you looking for a flooring option for your business? If you are, why not consider epoxy? It offers a range of aesthetic and practical advantages, as outlined below.

Visually Appealing

If you're laying a floor in your business, it must be attractive, whether for the benefit of clients or customers. Epoxy flooring offers many beautiful design options. Pigments can be added if you want a uniform colour, such as beige, cream, bright red or green. You can also choose flooring in a multitoned palette that resembles marble or wood or has a metallic finish. The contractors use different colouring techniques and tools to blend and swirl shades together to resemble the mottles, veining or grains in natural substances. Thus, you have plenty of options for designing the floor in keeping with your business's style and brand.

Durable

There's no point in laying flooring in a business space if it wears down quickly and looks old. Not only does this leave a negative impression of your business, but it also pushes you into the inconvenience of replacing or refinishing the flooring. However, you won't experience this with commercial epoxy flooring, which is durable and resilient. It can resist the weight of large vehicles, making it ideal for a warehouse and the high foot traffic experienced in many public spaces.

Hygienic

Epoxy floors are created with epoxy and a hardener, mixed and applied to the surface. These two ingredients undergo a chemical reaction and fuse to the surface, creating a hard, non-porous cover. While bare concrete is porous and has tiny holes that absorb stains and germs, the epoxy floor smooths the pores out, presenting a uniform surface. Because they're non-porous, these floors are ideal for settings where hygiene is paramount, such as restaurant kitchens, hospitals, and anywhere food or health services are provided. Because epoxy floors form a continuous cover, they don't have grout lines that capture germs.

Safe

As well as being safe in terms of hygiene, epoxy floors are safe to use. They form a continuous cover and don't have grooves that can trip people up or catch wheels. However, like many flooring types, epoxy can get slippery when wet. So you should mop up any spills promptly. You can also increase the floor's safety by adding sand to a sealant that provides extra traction and improves the grip of the flooring. Your contractors can give other suggestions for making the floor more practical.
