Resinous Floor and Wall Systems
We have a number of resinous flooring systems and high performance wall coatings available so
that we can help our customers choose the systems that best fit their needs.
Acrylics
Made of the same material as bullet proof glass, Methyl Methacrylates,
or more commonly known as MMA's, offer a time proven, durable, chemical
resistant, and UV stable monolithic flooring system. MMA flooring systems
allow us to offer to our customers the ability to install a complete
flooring system with minimal down time, with the finished floor able to be
put back into full service within 1 hour of completion. Because of this
rapid cure time, a complete floor can be installed in as little as 1 day as
opposed to the 5 to 7 days normally required for a traditional epoxy floor.
The down side however is the odor associated with MMA's. With an odor
threshold of 1 part per million special precautions must be taken to control
airflow throughout the work area and work is almost always conducted off
hours to help ensure minimal disruption to a customers workforce. MMA floors
are available in a wide range of finishes and anti-slip profiles.
Epoxies
Developed over 75 years ago, Epoxies have a
long established track record as a high performance flooring resin. Hard
wearing, highly durable, temperature stable, and chemical resistant, Epoxies
offer a sound resinous flooring solution for a wide variety of applications.
When additional UV stability, chemical resistance, and durability is
necessary, Epoxy floors can be combined with urethane based top coats to
provide a truly high performance flooring option. Epoxies are also extremely
low in odor and can be installed with almost no impact to concurrent
operations and customer staff. They are not however rapid flooring systems,
usually requiring between 5 to 7 days to complete a floor. Epoxies are
available in an endless variety of colors and finishes as well as non-slip
profiles.
Cementious Urethanes
Considered by some to be the swiss army knife
of the resinous flooring world. Formulated to withstand thermal shock and
chemical attack, cretes offer a resinous flooring system with unmatched
durability and wear resistance. Ideal for areas subject to constant HWFI,
warehouses, loading docks, commercial kitchens, bottling lines, and food
manufacturing facilities. Cretes are also able to withstand concrete
moisture vapor drive levels that far exceed any other flooring system,
resulting in a substantial savings due to the lack of need for a concrete
moisture vapor drive mitigation system. When combined with epoxy body coats
and a urethane top coat, cementitous urethanes offer perhaps the ultimate in
resinous flooring systems combining the unique properties of both cretes and
epoxies, in a decorative system that is seamless, highly durable,
thermal shock resistant, and chemical resistant, and is ideally suited to
Pharmaceutical and BioScience research and manufacturing.
N2 UV Cured Flooring
Developed by Seamless Technologies to address
specific concerns and requirements of life science research facilities.
Based in part on ultraviolet cured resins that were first developed in the
1960's for the aerospace industry, Seamless Technologies N2 flooring systems
represents a new direction in resinous flooring. A truly green floor that is
fully LEED compliant with 0 Volatile Organic Compounds and 0 Hazardous Air
Pollutants the N2 system offers a unique flooring system that works in a
broad range of facilities. Incredibly durable and highly chemical resistant,
the N2 flooring system offers a unique and fundamentally different approach
to many of the flooring problems that have plagued research facilities since
their inception. N2 is available in a wide range of decorative finishes and
non-skid profiles.
Specialty High Performance Coatings
We offer a wide range of specialty coatings
designed to address the specific needs of our customers. When a spark free
environment is a must including semi conductor facilities, mission critical
computing facilities, and class H1 materials handling facilities we offer a
number of Dissipative and Conductive coatings solutions to meet those needs.
Often times the normal chemical resistance of traditional flooring systems
is not sufficient for the given application. For situations such as those we
can offer our customers a number of highly specialized chemical resistant
coatings including novolac's and sacrificial coatings to meet those needs.
They are not always pretty but in these situations form always follows
function.
High Performance Wall Coatings
We offer a number of high performance epoxy
and urethane based wall coatings systems to address our customers needs.
These systems come in two primary types: fiberglass reinforced for the
ultimate in strength and durability, and non-reinforced where the chemical
resistance and durability are still required but the impact resistance is
not required. We also offer our customers the option to radius all of the
corners in a room and create a smooth seamless transition between the cove
base and wall coating, both of which allow for the creation of a smooth
surface from floor to ceiling with no corners or edges to harbor bacteria
and viruses and to help facilitate a comprehensive cleaning regimen by
eliminating hard to reach crevices.
