Epoxy flooring has a glossy finish that protects the concrete. The epoxy layer stops any stains from seeping in. Plus, it will prevent any water from soaking and causing cracking.
It can provide safety.
You want to provide safety to your customers that is why restaurants and commercial areas prefer epoxy flooring. The epoxy finish enhances the visibility in areas where there is little to no light. One big plus about epoxy flooring is the fact that it is hypoallergenic. Installing epoxy flooring in schools is ideal because there are many interactions and moving.
What is polyaspartic flooring?
Polyaspartic is a concrete coating and sealer. Polyaspartic is a type of polyurea, which is a viable material developed in the 1980s by Texaco Chemical Company. The polyurea creates a catalyst reaction to harden the materials.
Polyaspartic flooring is perfect for garages and commercial floors. For garages the process of installing polyaspartic flooring can take no less than five hours. The cost of fixing it in one whole day could be a little more. Installing polyaspartic flooring in any area in a commercial setting is ideal because it will resist stains and heavy abrasion.

Polyaspartic can be added on any temperature. You do not have to plan for the perfect 80 degree weather to apply this to your floors.

One of the reason many businesses choose a polyaspartic flooring is because of its quick drying time. Businesses do not want to worry about having to close down for a whole week or month to get the flooring installed. If businesses do this it will cost them income and keep buyers away. Polyaspartic provides you with a quick drying process of about a half hour.
