Resinous Flooring Systems

KAIDA PAINT® flooring systems are complete resinous build-ups: primer, body coat and topcoat specified together as one reactive package. The range covers five material families — epoxy, polyurethane, cementitious urethane, polyaspartic and polyurea, and MMA acrylic — plus dedicated groups for anti-static floors, self-levelling epoxy, self-levelling cement and garages. Every system on this page is selected by service environment first and by appearance second: what the floor has to survive, whether that is chemical contact, thermal shock, rising moisture, abrasive traffic or a shutdown window measured in hours, decides the family. Each system is supplied from primer to topcoat, so the layers are compatible by design.

What Is a Resinous Flooring System?

A resinous flooring system is the complete build-up — primer, body coat and topcoat — sold and specified as one package. A coating is a single layer that goes into that build-up. The distinction decides what you have to specify, what arrives on site, and who owns compatibility between the layers.

System or coating — the two are specified differently.

Which Flooring System Fits Which Floor?

Select by service environment first. The conditions below decide the material family; the finish is decided afterwards.

The floor has to survive — the family that fits. Mappings follow our own category specifications; confirm them against your project conditions before the system is fixed.
The floor has to surviveMaterial familyWhy that family
Chemical spills and aggressive washdownHigh-build epoxyBuilds a seamless, chemical-resistant body at higher thickness than a coating
Thermal shock, steam cleaning, cold roomsCementitious urethaneFormulated to take thermal shock and moisture alongside chemical contact
Rising moisture, no damp-proof membraneCementitious urethaneMoisture-tolerant, so it can be laid where a membrane is absent
Return to service within hoursMMA acrylic, polyaspartic and polyureaThese cure fastest, which is why they suit short shutdown windows
UV exposure and colour retentionPolyaspartic and polyureaUV-stable, so the surface does not amber in daylight
Abrasion from tracked vehiclesQuartz-filled epoxyMineral aggregate carried in the body coat takes the wear
Static control for electronics or solventsAnti-static epoxyProvides a controlled conductive path across the floor

Specifying the Whole Build-Up from One Supplier

The primer is chosen together with the body coat, not after it. Because each system here is supplied as one package, the mixing ratios, the inter-coat window and the surface preparation grade are stated for the combination rather than for each layer on its own. That closes two common failure points: an incompatible primer under a body coat, and a topcoat applied outside its recoat window.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a flooring system and a floor coating?

A flooring system is the whole build-up from primer to topcoat, supplied as one package. A floor coating is a single layer within it — a primer, a mid-coat or a topcoat. If you already have a sound substrate and need one layer, the coating sections are the right place to start; if the substrate or the service conditions are the problem, specify the system.

Which flooring system should be used in a food processing plant?

Start from what the floor is exposed to. Where the plant steam-cleans, hot-washes or runs cold rooms, the cementitious urethane group is the usual starting point, because thermal shock and moisture sit alongside chemical contact there. Where the exposure is chemical and abrasive without thermal cycling, a high-build epoxy system fits. Urethane mortar systems cover the food and beverage processing route.

How soon can the floor take traffic after installation?

It depends on the family. The MMA acrylic and polyaspartic/polyurea groups cure fastest, which is why they are chosen where the shutdown window is short. Each system datasheet states its own open-to-foot-traffic and open-to-vehicle time at a given temperature — check that against your shutdown window before the system is fixed.

Do you supply the whole system, or only the resin?

Each system on this page is supplied as a complete package, primer through topcoat, with the mixing ratios stated per pack. Send the floor area, the service conditions and the shutdown window, and we will specify the build-up and the pack quantities.

Send the floor area, the chemicals and temperatures the floor is exposed to, and the shutdown window. We will come back with the build-up, the pack quantities and the surface preparation grade.
