Frequently asked questions
What is a floor coating and why should I choose it?
A floor coating is a thin, wear-resistant layer applied over an existing surface. It provides extra protection, a seamless finish and improved durability. It prevents wear and tear, is easy to clean and can be liquid-proofed.
What is the difference between a floor coating and a cast floor?
A cast floor is thicker and forms a full-fledged floor, while a coating is a protective layer applied to an existing substrate. Moulded floors are more durable and suitable for heavy loads, while coatings are a more cost-efficient solution for lighter applications.
Is a floor coating liquid-proof?
Yes, a floor coating can be applied completely liquid-proof. This is especially important in industries where hygiene and protection against moisture are important, such as the food industry or workshops.
How do I maintain a coated floor?
A floor coating is easy to maintain. Regular dusting or vacuuming and mopping with a mild detergent is enough to keep the floor clean and in good condition. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents that may damage the coating.
Can floor coating be applied over existing floors?
Yes, provided the substrate is well levelled and load-bearing. Concrete, cement screeds and even tiles can be coated, but in some cases a pre-treatment such as sanding or priming is required.
How long does it take to apply a floor coating?
This depends on the type of coating and the size of the room. In most cases, a coating can be applied within one day and fully loaded after 24 hours.
In what colours is floor coating available?
Floor coatings are available in virtually all RAL colours. This offers the possibility of choosing a floor to match the house style or specific aesthetic requirements.
In what colours is floor coating available?
Floor coatings are available in virtually all RAL colours. This offers the possibility of choosing a floor to match the house style or specific aesthetic requirements.
Can a floor coating be non-slip?
Yes, a non-slip finish is possible by adding special granules to the coating. This is especially useful in wet or industrial environments where safety is a priority.
How durable is a floor coating?
Floor coatings are extremely durable and resistant to wear, chemicals and mechanical stress. The lifespan depends on use and maintenance, but with proper care, a coated floor can last for many years.
What is an epoxy floor?
An epoxy floor is a plastic screed consisting of two components. It forms an extremely strong, seamless and chemical-resistant floor, ideal for industrial and commercial applications.
What are the benefits of epoxy flooring?
Epoxy floors are highly wear-resistant, liquid-proof, low-maintenance and chemical-resistant. They are ideal for heavy-duty use, such as in warehouses, garages and industrial areas.
Can epoxy flooring be applied to any substrate?
Epoxy can be applied to concrete, cement screeds and tiles, provided the substrate is properly prepared. A primer or levelling layer may be required for optimum adhesion.
How long does it take for an epoxy floor to fully cure?
Epoxy floors typically require 48 to 72 hours to fully cure. After 24 hours, the floor is walkable, but heavy loading is recommended only after complete curing.
Is an epoxy floor suitable for underfloor heating?
Yes, an epoxy floor can be excellently combined with underfloor heating. Thanks to its seamless structure, the floor conducts heat well and ensures even heat distribution.
Can an epoxy floor discolour?
Epoxy floors may discolour under the influence of UV light over time. To prevent this, a UV-resistant topcoat can be applied.
Is an epoxy floor scratch-resistant?
Epoxy floors are very strong, but may show slight scratches when used intensively. A topcoat or PU finish can be added for extra protection.
How is an epoxy floor cleaned?
Use a soft broom, dust wiper or mop with a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can damage the top coat.
What does an epoxy floor cost per m²?
Costs vary depending on the area, substrate and finish. Request a quote for an exact price indication.
What is a PMMA floor?
PMMA (PolyMethylMethAcrylate) is a fast-drying plastic floor applied in several layers. PMMA floors are liquid-proof, chemical-resistant and suitable for heavy loads.
What are the advantages of PMMA flooring?
PMMA floors dry within hours, allowing the floor to be put back into use quickly. They are also hard-wearing, hygienic and resistant to chemicals.
How soon can PMMA flooring be used?
One of the biggest advantages of a PMMA floor is its fast curing: within 2 to 3 hours, the floor is fully cured and ready for use.
Where are PMMA floors commonly used?
PMMA floors are widely used in the food industry, laboratories, car parks, cold storage and other environments where fast installation is required.
Can a PMMA floor withstand extreme temperatures?
Yes, PMMA floors can withstand both high and low temperatures well, making them ideal for cold storage and freezer rooms.
Can a PMMA floor be given a non-slip finish?
Yes, by sprinkling fine granules in the final layer, a PMMA floor can be made extra anti-slip.
How do I maintain a PMMA floor?
PMMA floors are easy to clean with a mop, hoover or cleaning machine. Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh chemicals.
Can PMMA flooring be installed over an existing floor?
Yes, provided the substrate is properly prepared. A primer or levelling layer may be required for optimum adhesion.
How long does a PMMA floor last?
PMMA floors are extremely durable and, with proper maintenance, can last for decades without losing quality.
What does a PMMA floor cost per m²?
The price depends on the substrate, finish and total area. Request a quote for a targeted quotation.
