There are numerous types of flooring that you can choose to install, and they will each have their own strengths and weaknesses. Depending on the needs of the area where you are going to install this flooring, epoxy coatings may be the ideal solution for this need. 

Epoxy Flooring Is Suitable For A Variety Of Areas

An important strength of epoxy flooring is that it is an extremely versatile solution. In fact, epoxy flooring systems can often be used in both residential and commercial spaces. For example, a homeowner may choose to have this flooring system installed in the garage as it can be durable enough to avoid suffering wear due to vehicles driving over it. Additionally, epoxy flooring's durability can make it an exceptional choice for commercial spaces due to the amount of foot traffic that they will experience and the equipment that is being moved around in the facility.

Epoxy Flooring Can Be Made To Be Extremely Slip-Resistant

Choosing flooring that is slip-resistant can be one option to consider as it will allow individuals to safely walk across these surfaces. To this end, epoxy flooring may seem like it would be fairly slippery due to it being such a smooth surface. However, it is actually possible to texture the epoxy so that it will provide enhanced traction. For areas that can expect to get wet or have spills on a regular basis, this can be an extremely useful feature to include with your new flooring system.

Epoxy Flooring Is Not Vulnerable To Staining

Staining can be a common cosmetic issue for flooring systems. Once staining occurs, it can be difficult to remove it without completely resurfacing the flooring. These stains can occur due to pigments seeping into the flooring through small openings and pores on the surface of the flooring. However, epoxy flooring will typically be extremely resistant to developing stains due to it not having these openings on its surface. As a result, you will find that the look of this flooring can be easier to maintain over the years of use that it will experience. Additionally, this can also make it much easier to clean this surface as you may find that most substances that get on it will be able to be easily removed with light mopping. When cleaning these floors, you should only use solutions that are suitable for epoxy flooring systems. This will avoid the risk of these solutions leaving behind a sticky residue or even causing damage to the epoxy layer.
