Industrial floor coating and Commercial Flooring Benefits Revealed

By performing a thorough walk-through with the business owners or managers, we can readily assess the company's needs and to make recommendations intended to meet the specific concerns of the company. Common benefits business owners discover and appreciate after professional installation of industrial and  commercial flooring include:

• Aesthetically Pleasing - smoothly finished industrial and commercial flooring can be pleasing to the eye
• Chemical Resistance - with proper coating, concerns surrounding chemical use and spills are greatly reduced
• Easier Cleaning - commercial flooring can be easy to maintain, holding a shine longer than other floor types
• Longevity - there is no question that properly installed commercial flooring retains a long life than other floors
• Non-Porous (Improved Hygiene) - thanks to its non-porous properties, bacteria, germs, and dirt cannot penetrate coated floors
• Reduced Dusting - because of its smooth and hard surface, little dust accumulates even with high traffic and from moving heavy items
• Strength - the risk of cracking, chipping, or otherwise marring new floors is greatly reduced, if not entirely eliminated

Common Types of Industrial and Commercial Flooring

Even though industrial and commercial flooring delivers strength, durability, and longevity, as mentioned in the above benefits, business owners do not have to sacrifice aesthetics when seeking standard solutions. Nowadays, there are many types of commercial flooring from which businesses may choose, many of which offer stylistic solutions on top of quality materials built for endurance and stability.

A closer look at each type can help inform companies which industrial and commercial flooring might best serve their business needs.

Polished Concrete

To this day, polished concrete solutions remain a popular choice for multiple reasons. To begin, polished concrete is easy and fast to clean and maintain; often daily dust mopping along with regular wet mopping keeps a bright finish with minimal effort. Add its resilience and toughness, and you have flooring which can handle a lot of abuse without showing any wear for it.

While it is an effective blank canvas from which attractive designs and ideas are born, it also naturally reflects light, bringing brightness and energy to the atmosphere. Finally, it doesn't have to be a blank canvas. You can opt for a unique look and statement by blending different dyes, stains, or textures for an enhanced surface look.

Laminate Flooring

For companies seeking affordable options requiring minimal maintenance, laminate flooring should be considered. For businesses especially, it is important to understand the laminate flooring AC ratings which apply to this type of industrial and commercial flooring. AC refers to "Abrasion Class" and its rating tells the consumer how well the flooring will wear after installation. For most commercial and industrial locations, you want the highest AC rating, AC4 or AC5. If your business experiences lighter traffic, you may be able to go with AC3-rated laminate flooring.

Drawbacks businesses face when using laminate flooring are two-fold. First, its low acoustic profile makes it distracting in situations requiring quieter atmospheres, such as open offices. Laminate flooring is particularly vulnerable to moisture, making it a poor choice for spaces subject to greater exposure of moisture.

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) 

For businesses looking for more design options, luxury vinyl tiles are worth investigating because of the wide variety of designs, patterns, and colors available. Known for both durability and water-resistance, LVTs are readily adaptable to many different work environments, like cafes, salons, and retail outlets.

Its durability feature can be increased by using a thicker wear layer (the top protective layer) on the LVT.  On the downside, this hard flooring surface can make it uncomfortable for workers or customers who spend lots of time standing.

Tile Flooring

For businesses demanding the most versatility in industrial and commercial flooring, tile flooring may be the answer. Available in a seemingly endless menu of design options, maintenance or repair is as simple as replacing damaged or missing tiles with new tiles.  As with other floorings, tile is graded by a hardness rating scale as developed by Porcelain Enamel Institute.

Businesses that select this option appreciate the ease with which this material can be cleaned and repaired.
