Healthcare floors have to satisfy infection control, environmental services, facilities and the people occupying the building — all at once, and usually without closing anything for more than a shift. Here is what we engineer our medical-facility coatings to deliver, and how.
RequiredSeamless and non-porous
Grout lines, tile seams and worn wax are where pathogens live. Our Heavy Tonnage Epoxy cures to a seamless, non-porous surface with nothing for bacteria to harbor in, and our Clear Quartz coating seals existing vinyl and VCT into a single continuous finish — designed for infection control and with no stripping and waxing required it reduces labor and material costs by 80%.
RequiredSurvives hospital-grade disinfectants
Environmental services runs disinfectant on a schedule, not when it's convenient for the floor. Our coatings are chemical resistant to hospital-grade disinfectants and sterilization protocols, and stain resistant — blood, iodine and medical fluids wipe clean rather than soaking in. Daily maintenance is simple soap and water.
RequiredSafe to install in an occupied building
You can't gas out a wing of patients to recoat a corridor. Our systems are VOC compliant and low odor, and Heavy Tonnage is available in a no-odor formulation specifically for occupied facilities so that work can happen next to active patient care.
RequiredBack in service fast
An OR or imaging suite is measured in hours of downtime, not days. We offer rapid-cure systems for critical care areas, plan phased installations so one zone is coated while the rest of the department runs, and Heavy Tonnage can go directly over existing sound coatings, which cuts prep time.
RequiredTakes rolling loads and dropped instruments
Beds, gurneys, wheelchairs, imaging carts and supply trains never stop, and instruments get dropped. Heavy Tonnage goes on at 30 mils — ten times thicker than conventional floor enamel — and cures to a Shore D hardness above a construction hard hat. We tested it under forklifts with the forks angled into the floor and it showed no damage.
RequiredWorks over the floors you already have
Most hospitals are standing on acres of VCT and sheet vinyl that nobody is going to rip out. Our Clear Quartz Vinyl Floor Coating works over existing or new vinyl in patient rooms, corridors, ORs, and medical offices. It's five times stronger than floor wax and ends the strip-and-rewax cycle permanently.
RequiredSlip resistance where it's wet
Sterile processing, decontamination rooms, therapy pools, kitchens and loading docks are wet by design. Safety textures can be added to our systems in those zones for slip-and-fall protection without turning the rest of the department into a floor that's hard to clean.
RequiredWalls and infrastructure covered too
Our Industrial Wall Epoxy bonds to block, brick, cement and sheetrock, fills block voids in one coat, and shrugs off cart impacts, abrasion and stains. Our direct-to-metal epoxy mastic goes over tight rust on piping and mechanical equipment three times thicker than steel paint, and we cover cooling towers and roofs as well — one supplier for the whole building.
