Epoxy Flooring in Bowmanville
Are you thinking about upgrading your flooring? Canada Chemicals and Coatings specializes in epoxy flooring. Epoxy flooring is solid and durable, so it is the perfect choice for homes, garages, basements, and more!
So what is epoxy, and why should you use it? Epoxy looks like thick paint, but rather than just coating your surface in colour, it produces a durable coating that forms a chemical bond with the floor itself. Epoxy is watertight so that it will protect the flooring beneath.
Benefits of Epoxy Flooring
- UV Protective Coating – When an epoxy floor is exposed to sunlight, it will fade and be yellow. It’s a chemical reaction that occurs when the epoxy is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. Canada Chemicals and Coatings used a UV protective coating that will prevent your flooring from yellowing or fading for years to come.
- Scratch-Resistance – Epoxy flooring is exceptionally scratch-resistant due to the composition of the epoxy ingredients. Some additional coatings and topcoats can increase how resistant the floor is to scratches and abrasions.
- Highly Durability – Epoxy flooring is one of the most durable floorings available on the market today. It is incredibly resistant to chemicals, stains, scratches, and cracks.
- Stronger than a concrete floor – Compression strength is a flooring system’s capacity to withstand a constant load. Concrete generally has 4,000 psi. Epoxy flooring installed by Canada Chemicals and Coatings can reach and exceed 10,000 psi. Hardness is also measured to indicate a flooring’s resistance to objects falling from a distance. On a scale of 1-to-100, concrete rates are in the 50-60 range, and an epoxy floor receives a rating in the upper 80s. Epoxy floors are much more resistant to objects falling and creating divots than concrete floors.
- Aesthetically Pleasing – Standard epoxy floor coatings can be in glossy, bright colours, ideal for creating large expanses of aesthetically pleasing, smooth flooring. Many designers use the application method of resin systems to segment the floor area into different zones of colour to create engaging and dynamic visual effects. This segmentation approach is also an excellent way to bring multiple brand colours into the floor’s design scheme or highlight particular site parts.
- Chemical Resistant –Epoxy flooring is incredibly durable and chemical resistant against gas, coolant, oils and household chemicals.
- Waterproof – Epoxy flooring provides a shield against water and prevents the infinite amount of damage that water can cause on a concrete floor.
- Food-safe – CFIA and Health Canada have approved many types of epoxy flooring for use around food. Epoxy flooring installed by Canada Chemicals and Coatings works great to withstand acids and alkalis and can stand up to abrasive cleaning, making it an excellent investment for areas where food is being handled.
- Non-slip – Canada Chemicals and Coatings can add a skid-resistant additive to the topcoat to make the floor very safe, even when wet.
What is Full Flake Epoxy?
Full Flake Epoxy, also known as Full Broadcast Epoxy, means that flakes entirely cover the epoxy flooring system. When you look at a full flake epoxy floor, the colour becomes almost unrecognizable because you see a flake system that makes the floor look like stone or granite. A full flake epoxy floor is more durable than partial flake epoxy because you have a three-layered flooring system – base coat, flake, topcoat.
Canada Chemicals and Coatings used different epoxy resins for other flake systems. Once the floor is prepped, the base coat is applied to the floor, and the Full Flake is broadcast onto the base coat. Sometimes another base coat and another application of Full Flake is applied. Once the base and flakes are entirely dried, Canada Chemicals and Coatings scraps and vacuums any loose media. Then the topcoat is used – which may be one or two coats of epoxy and clear urethane.
