Rough Concrete Underfoot?
Tile flooring is not recognized for being comfortable. Epoxy coatings on the other hand can be adapted so that they have a feeling of give as you walk on them. Regardless of the type of flooring used underneath, most restaurants and industrial kitchens also choose rubber matting to soften the feet and legs.
Is Coated Concrete Simple to Maintain?
A quality color stained or epoxied concrete floor highlights a polyurethane sealer that is almost just as resilient as the sealants we lay down on garage floors and work areas with heavy traffic. Carts will not scuff it. Liquids cannot stain it. Falling instruments will not leave a pit. When it comes to resilience, endurance and ease of sanitation, coated concrete usually comes out on top.
Isn’t Epoxy Too Slippery for Kitchens?
It’s factual that shiny epoxy floors in retail stores and showrooms can be slippery when wet, but their flooring focuses on looks, not functionality. That does not hold true when you implement epoxy coats for a kitchen surface. By adding texture or a no-slip finish to your epoxy topcoats, your floor can have more grip than tile or vinyl. In fact, many business kitchens in restaurants use epoxy coatings because they offer stronger anti-slip with the proper topcoat.
