In manufacturing plants, the flooring must withstand constant abuse. If an industrial floor is unable to handle the daily wear from heavy machinery, chemical spills, impacts, and high heat, it will soon begin to deteriorate. Such erosion can lead to cracks, potholes or even a total failure of the concrete slab, causing costly downtime and safety hazards. To prevent this, we reinforce concrete surfaces with high-strength epoxy or polyurethane coatings that effectively armor the floor.
For facilities using extremely harsh chemicals or acidic compounds, epoxy coatings are often the most economical and durable choice. A properly specified epoxy floor will resist corrosive spills and stains, and it won’t chip or break down under forklift traffic or heavy loads. These coatings are also formulated to be impact-resistant and can include anti-skid aggregates, providing improved traction for worker safety even if oils or coolants spill on the floor. In areas prone to high temperatures or thermal shock (for example, near furnaces or hot machinery), we offer specialized resin systems that can tolerate intense heat without delamination.
Every production facility has unique needs. Perth Blast n Seal will evaluate factors like your process chemicals, traffic intensity, and downtime constraints to recommend the optimal flooring system. Often, a multi-layer system yields the best results – for instance, a penetrating primer, an epoxy base coat for thickness, and a chemical-resistant urethane topcoat for extra protection. This combination delivers maximum durability, as the polyurethane top layer adds UV stability and additional resistance to chemicals and wear. The result is a seamless floor that can handle everything from constant forklift traffic to accidental chemical spills, all while being easy to clean and maintain.
We also pay attention to safety and regulatory compliance. Our industrial flooring solutions can include ESD (electrostatic dissipative) coatings if you have sensitive electronic equipment or flammable materials, ensuring any static charge is safely grounded. We can incorporate anti-slip coatings in areas where water, oil or cutting fluids might create slick spots, reducing the risk of worker slips. Additionally, our coatings often help with illumination – a light-reflective floor can brighten work areas, improving visibility and morale on the factory floor.
Perth Blast n Seal is proud to support Western Australia’s manufacturing and fabrication industries – from metal workshops in Osborne Park to large production plants in the Kwinana industrial area. We recognize that WA facilities often face additional challenges like intense heat in summer or abrasive dust from mining-related operations. Our flooring solutions are selected to perform under these local conditions, offering heat tolerance and dust-resistant finishes as needed.
When you partner with us, you get expert project management and skilled applicators on every job. We adhere to strict quality standards and safety protocols, with a fully insured and certified crew. The result is a floor that not only meets Australian standards for industrial facilities but also provides you peace of mind and longevity.
