The Benefits of Concrete Coatings

There are many benefits associated with concrete coatings. Let’s examine some of the key benefits in different areas and environments.

Residential applications have various benefits over traditional flooring options. Resin-based concrete coatings are aesthetically appealing and can be customized to match and complement any décor. The monolithic design provides a seamless surface eliminating the harboring of bacterial growth and is inherently easy to clean. The textured surface reduces slip hazards while improving light reflectivity, allowing the space to be safe, feel larger, and brighten moods. Durability exceeds traditional flooring options through impact, abrasion, and chemical resistance. The lifespan is much longer than traditional flooring, eliminating the need for frequent replacements.

There are different systems available for exterior applications such as stamped, stained, and sealed concrete, however, resin-based coatings have features and benefits that make it a better choice. Coatings mimic exposed aggregates and natural sands, providing an aesthetically appealing appearance. Cost can play a big determining factor. Coatings are much more cost-effective in comparison to pavers and require less maintenance than stamped, stained, or sealed concrete. Adding texture to the coating creates a safe surface in all weather conditions while providing long-term durability with its impact, abrasion, and chemical resistance.

When it comes to commercial and industrial applications, many benefits allow for performance, long-term durability, and fast return to service. Extremely low maintenance costs reduce yearly expenses and the easy cleanability reduces overall labor costs. Colors are customizable to match brand standards giving a tailored appearance. Improved light reflectivity increases size appearance, mood, and visibility, reducing accidents and overall lighting costs and electrical consumption. The textured surface reduces slip and trip hazards reducing liabilities. Additionally, its monolithic design is hygienic and hypoallergenic eliminating bacterial growth and the non-porous surface eliminates staining and dusting.
