How long does epoxy flooring last?

A properly installed epoxy floor lasts 10–15 years in commercial environments and 5–10 years in heavy-industrial settings before requiring recoating.

Can epoxy be installed over damp concrete?

We test moisture vapour transmission first. For damp slabs we use moisture-mitigating primers or polyurea systems that tolerate higher vapour pressure.

How soon can the floor be used after installation?

Light foot traffic after 12–24 hours; light vehicle traffic after 48 hours; full chemical/heavy traffic after 7 days for full cure.

How long does epoxy flooring last in a warehouse?

A properly installed epoxy floor lasts 10-15 years in commercial environments and 5-10 years in heavy-industrial settings before requiring recoating. Surface preparation (shot-blasting) and moisture testing are critical to achieving full service life.

Epoxy vs polyurethane flooring — which is better for warehouses?

Epoxy is the standard for warehouse floors (seamless, 10-15 year life, chemical resistant). Polyurethane topcoat adds UV stability (for car park decks exposed to sunlight) and is more flexible (crack-resistant). For indoor warehouses, epoxy alone is sufficient. For outdoor or UV-exposed areas, epoxy + polyurethane topcoat is the best system.

How long does epoxy flooring installation take?

A typical 1,000 m² epoxy floor takes 3-5 days: Day 1 (surface prep + primer), Day 2-3 (self-levelling screed), Day 4 (topcoat). Foot traffic resumes after 12-24 hours; vehicle traffic after 48 hours; full chemical cure after 7 days. We work in phases for operational facilities to maintain access.

Service

Epoxy Flooring — Seamless Industrial & Commercial Systems

Self-levelling epoxy, polyurethane and decorative floor systems — seamless, chemical resistant and built for 10–15 year service life.

Seamless, durable, decorative industrial floor systems.

Overview

Epoxy flooring transforms concrete into a seamless, hygienic, chemical-resistant surface that lasts 10–15 years. We install self-levelling epoxy for warehouses, anti-static epoxy for electronics, polyurethane for car-park decks and decorative flake systems for showrooms. Every system includes moisture testing, surface preparation by shot-blasting, and a primer coat engineered for the substrate condition.
