ResuShield™ Screed III Epoxy Flooring System

الوصف

نظرة عامة على المنتج

ResuShield™ Screed III is a heavy-duty, trowel-applied epoxy flooring system engineered for demanding industrial and commercial environments. This seamless system combines 100% solids epoxy resin with specially graded silica sand aggregate to create an exceptionally durable, chemical-resistant, and long-lasting surface. Designed to resurface deteriorated floors and protect new concrete from extreme abrasion, impact, and chemical spills, it delivers a tough, sanitary, and low-maintenance finish. The ResuShield™ Screed III system is the go-to solution for warehouses, manufacturing plants, machine shops, loading docks, and high-traffic areas where performance and longevity are non-negotiable.

The Industrial Flooring Challenge: Common Problems & Pain Points

Facility managers, contractors, and companies face constant battles with their concrete floors. Standard paint or thin coatings quickly fail under real-world stress, leading to:

• Cracking and Spalling: Heavy equipment and thermal cycling cause cracks, creating trip hazards and harboring dirt.

• Dusting and Degradation: Untreated or poorly sealed concrete constantly generates dust, contaminating products and damaging machinery.

• Chemical Attack: Oils, greases, solvents, and cleaning agents from daily operations eat away at the floor surface.

• Abrasion and Wear: Constant foot and forklift traffic grinds down the floor, requiring frequent and costly repair.

• النظافة وقابلية التنظيف: Porous surfaces trap bacteria and grime, making cleaning difficult and failing health code inspections in food, pharmaceutical, or commercial kitchen settings.

• Slippery Surfaces: Wet or oily conditions create dangerous slip-and-fall risks for personnel.

The cost of frequent repairs, downtime, safety incidents, and premature replacement is immense. Businesses need a system that is not just a coating, but a permanent flooring solution.

The ResuShield™ Screed III Solution: Core Features & Benefits

Our epoxy flooring system is specifically formulated to address these critical pain points. Here’s how it performs:

1. Unmatched Durability & Mechanical Strength

• Extreme Abrasion Resistance: With a low mass loss (typically around 18 mg per test cycle), the surface withstands years of heavy traffic from steel wheels, pallet jacks, and machinery without wearing thin.

• Superior Impact Resistance: The thick, reinforced mortar layer absorbs heavy impacts from dropped tools or equipment, preventing cracks and chips that plague standard concrete.

• High Load-Bearing Capacity: Exceptional compressive strength (over 17,500 psi) ensures the floor won’t deform under stationary heavy loads or racking systems.

2. Superior Chemical Resistance

• The non-porous, seamless topcoat forms an impervious barrier against a wide range of chemicals commonly found in industrial settings, including:

  • Oils, greases, and hydraulic fluids

  • Dilute acids and alkalis

  • Salts, sugars, and many solvents

• This makes cleaning simple and prevents stains, ensuring a sanitary environment that meets FDA and USDA guidelines for food processing areas.

3. Safety & Functional Enhancements

• Slip-Resistant Finish: A textured finish provides excellent traction, even when wet, significantly reducing slip hazards. It can be customized to meet specific slip resistance ratings.

• سلس وصحي: The monolithic application leaves no grout lines or cracks for dirt, moisture, or bacteria to hide, facilitating easy cleaning and sterilization.

• Dust-Proof: Completely encapsulates the substrate, eliminating concrete dust forever.

4. Aesthetic & Customizable

• Color Options: Available in a range of standard gray, white, and custom colors to improve lighting, define zones, or align with corporate branding.

• Professional Finish: Provides a uniform, attractive gloss or satin finish that enhances the overall appearance of any warehouse, showroom, or commercial space.

5. Efficient Application & Performance

• Fast Cure Time: Minimizes facility downtime, allowing a quick return to service.

• 100% Solids, Low VOC: Contains no solvents, reducing odor during installation and supporting better indoor air quality.

• Proven System: Backed by comprehensive technical data and manufacturer support.

Technical Specifications & Performance Data

The performance of ResuShield™ Screed III is verified by standardized testing methods, ensuring reliability and compliance.

Ideal Applications

The ResuShield™ Screed III system is versatile and trusted across numerous sectors:

• Manufacturing & Industrial: Machine shops, automotive plants, warehouse aisles, and assembly areas.

• Logistics & Distribution: Loading docks, distribution centers, sorting facilities, and high-traffic corridors.

• المأكولات والمشروبات: Processing plants, bottling facilities, kitchens, and storage areas requiring USDA-compliance.

• Commercial & Institutional: Parking garages, service areas, school bathrooms, and hospital corridors.

• Repair & Renovation: Ideal for repairing spalled concrete, leveling uneven slabs, and resurfacing old tile or damaged floors.

Professional Installation Process

A successful, long-lasting floor depends on expert prep and installation. Our recommended process ensures optimal performance:

1. Surface Preparation & Inspection: The existing concrete is thoroughly cleaned, shot-blasted, or diamond-ground to achieve a CSP 3-6 profile. Critical moisture tests (ASTM F-2170) are performed.

2. Priming: A 100% solids epoxy primer (ResuShield Glaze) is applied to ensure perfect adhesion to the concrete substrate.

3. Mortar Application: While the primer is tacky, the ResuShield™ Screed III mortar is mixed and trowel-applied to the specified thickness (typically 1/4″), creating the robust wear layer.

4. تطبيق الطلاء العلوي: A high-performance epoxy topcoat (ResuShield Gard or ATP) is applied as a final sealer, providing enhanced chemical resistance, a smooth finish, and easy cleaning.

5. Curing & Protection: The floor is cured according to manufacturer specifications before being released for light and then full traffic.

Why Professional Installation Matters: Improper prep or application is the #1 cause of floor failure. Working with certified contractors or our network of experienced installers guarantees the system performs as engineered.

الأسئلة الشائعة (FAQ)

Q: How does ResuShield™ Screed III compare to a standard epoxy coating?
A: Standard epoxy coatings are thin films (10-20 mils). ResuShield™ Screed III is a thick, trowel-applied mortar system (3/16-1/4 inch). It is far more durable, impact-resistant, and suitable for heavily deteriorated substrates or extreme industrial abuse.

Q: What is the typical installation timeline and how long before I can use the floor?
A: Timeline depends on area size and substrate condition. Generally, the system can be installed over 2-3 days. Light foot traffic is often possible in 12-24 hours, with full mechanical traffic allowed after 3-7 days of cure, depending on temperature.

Q: How do I maintain and clean my ResuShield™ Screed III floor?
A: Maintenance is simple. Sweep or dust mop regularly. For cleaning, use a neutral pH cleaner and a soft mop or automatic scrubber. Avoid strong acidic or caustic cleaners and abrasive scrub pads. This will preserve the topcoat’s gloss and performance for years.

Q: Can it be installed over an existing tile or sealed concrete floor?
A: Yes, but proper surface preparation is critical. Existing tile must be mechanically abraded, and all sealers must be completely removed to ensure the epoxy bonds directly to the substrate. A professional assessment is recommended.
