Productos

TerraFlex™ EC is a seamless, decorative cementitious urethane flooring system designed for high-traffic industrial and commercial spaces. It integrates a moisture-tolerant, self-leveling cementitious urethane mortar body coat with a decorative chip broadcast, finished with a chemical-, UV-, and wear-resistant polyurethane topcoat. The system offers exceptional durability, thermal cycling resistance, and a decorative finish, making it ideal for environments such as hospitals, schools, warehouses, and retail spaces where hygiene, safety, and aesthetics are critical.

Common Industrial Flooring Problems & Scenarios

Industrial and commercial floors face constant challenges that compromise safety, hygiene, and longevity. Common issues include:

• Cracking & Damage: Heavy machinery and impact cause cracks in traditional concrete floors.

• Dusting & Degradation: Untreated concrete generates dust, contaminating products and air quality.

• Corrosión química: Spills from oils, acids, solvents, and cleaning agents degrade floor surfaces.

• Moisture & Mold: Water infiltration leads to mold growth, adhesion failure, and slab damage.

• Poor Cleanability: Porous surfaces trap dirt, bacteria, and stains, increasing maintenance costs.

• Slipperiness: Wet or polished floors pose slip hazards, risking employee safety.

Scenario Examples:

• Food & Beverage Plants: Require non-porous, chemical-resistant floors that withstand frequent washdowns and sanitization.

• Warehouses & Logistics Centers: Need ultra-durable, impact-resistant flooring to support heavy pallet jacks, forklifts, and high foot traffic.

• Aparcamientos: Demand weather-resistant, UV-stable, and aesthetically pleasing finishes that endure freeze-thaw cycles.

• Healthcare & Schools: Prioritize hygienic, seamless, and easy-to-clean surfaces to maintain sterile environments.

TerraFlex™ EC: Solution & Key Features

TerraFlex™ EC addresses these challenges with a robust, multi-layer cementitious urethane system. Key features include:

Mechanical Durability

• High Abrasion Resistance: Withstands heavy wheeled traffic with minimal wear.

• Impact & Crack Resistance: Flexible urethane matrix absorbs impacts, preventing cracks from propagating.

• Load-Bearing Strength: Supports sustained heavy static and dynamic loads without deformation.

Resistencia química y a las manchas

• Resists a wide range of chemicals including oils, greases, acids, alkalis, solvents, and sanitizers.

• Non-porous surface prevents absorption, making spills easy to clean.

Seamless & Hygienic Finish

• Joint-free design eliminates dirt and bacteria traps, simplifying cleaning and sanitization.

• Meets USDA, FDA, and health department requirements for food-safe environments.

Safety & Slip Resistance
