Loading Dock and Warehouse Floors

DO IT RIGHT, DO IT ONCE!

Warehouses and loading docks are tough environments for flooring.  Bare concrete has cracks and joints, which combined with heavy traffic conditions, can cause concrete spalls and breakage, potholes, low spots, etc.  This can wreak havoc on the wheels and suspensions on your material handling equipment; the repairs can run into the tens of thousands of dollars

The nature of the materials stored in the warehouse Corrosive liquids, solvents and specialty chemicals often demand a floor finish that can withstand potential spills, as well as the abuse dished out by the handling equipment typically used to maneuver containers that hold these kinds of materials (This type of area typically requires a towelled epoxy or urethane resurfacer).

The aesthetic expectations of the facilityA warehouse that is routinely part of corporate “dog and pony” shows must sparkle for every new visitor, and the floor finish must return to its initial luster upon regular cleaning. The coating must also be able to withstand the rigors of that frequent cleaning without chipping, undo wear, fading or discoloration.

Cleaning and MaintenanceThe floor coating must retain its essential properties in the face of routine maintenance. Cleaning and scrubbing, power-sweeping, automated buffing, and similar procedures designed to keep the operation in top shape can damage the floor finish unless it is specifically formulated to endure such treatment.

Epoxy/Polyurethane hybrid system – Thin Mil CoatingsEpoxy primer coat seals the concrete, and provides maximum adhesion and build thickness to the system.  Polyurethane topcoat is applied for maximum cleanability, gloss retention, abrasion,chemical, and slip resistance.

1/8 to 1/4 inch Urethane Resurfacer system (trowelled or self leveling)This system is highly durable for heavy traffic conditions, and provides a permanent solution;   it has the added benefit of restoring a heavily damaged concrete floor, to a smooth condition, and providing a vapor barrier for the concrete, which is needed in certain circumstances.   An epoxy/urethane thin mil coating system is typically applied over this, for maximum cleanability, gloss retention, abrasion,chemical, and slip resistance.
