Floor Systems
1. Epoxy and Polyurethane coatings and sealers.
Epoxy and Polyurethane coatings and sealers are generally used for colour coating and dust sealing concrete and wooden floors. They are used in all different types of environments and industries. Although these are roller applied resins, as a two-component water-based resin, they still offer a tough, durable abrasive resistance floor finish and are available in a wide range of colours from the RAL and BS4800 colour range.
