ResuShield™ Deco Flake RB Epoxy Flooring System

Description

Product Overview

ResuShield™ Deco Flake RB is a high-performance, UV-resistant, decorative flake broadcast epoxy flooring system. Designed for demanding industrial and commercial environments, it combines a random broadcast of colorful vinyl chips within a durable epoxy matrix, sealed with a clear, high-gloss polyurethane topcoat. This system delivers a seamless, sanitary, and aesthetically pleasing finish that is exceptionally resistant to chemicals, stains, abrasion, and impact. It is the ideal solution for facilities requiring a tough, easy-to-clean floor with unlimited design potential, such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, healthcare facilities, schools, and retail spaces.

The Problem with Standard Industrial Flooring

Industrial and commercial flooring faces constant assault. Traditional options like plain concrete or basic coatings often fail, leading to:

• Cracking and Damage: Heavy equipment and thermal cycling cause unsightly and hazardous cracks.

• Dusting and Degradation: Constant traffic breaks down the surface, creating dust that contaminates products and air quality.

• Chemical Spills and Stains: Oils, solvents, and cleaning agents stain, etch, and weaken standard floors.

• Slippery and Unsanitary Surfaces: Smooth, worn floors become safety hazards and are difficult to keep clean.

• Dull and Uninspiring Appearance: A worn-out floor negatively impacts the entire facility’s image and employee morale.

Specific Industry Pain Points:

• Food & Beverage: Needs floors that withstand frequent high-pressure, hot water cleaning and resist acids, fats, and sugars without harboring bacteria.

• Warehousing & Logistics: Requires extreme abrasion resistance to handle constant forklift traffic and heavy pallet drops without showing wear.

• Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals: Demands completely seamless, non-porous surfaces for strict hygiene protocols and easy sterilization.

• Commercial & Retail: Seeks an attractive, durable finish that makes a strong brand statement and can handle high foot traffic.

The ResuShield™ Deco Flake RB Solution

Our system directly addresses these challenges with a multi-layered, engineered solution.

1. Unmatched Durability & Performance

• Superior Abrasion Resistance: The system boasts a Taber Abrasion loss of only 18mg (ASTM D4060), far outperforming standard epoxy, ensuring long life under heavy traffic.

• Exceptional Strength: High compressive strength (13,500 psi per ASTM D695) and tensile strength (8,000 psi per ASTM D2370) prevent cracking and damage from impact.

• Chemical Resistance: The topcoat and epoxy layers provide a protective shield against a wide range of chemicals, including oils, greases, dilute acids, and alkalis, common in industrial settings.

• Slip Resistance: A wet static coefficient of friction of 0.94 (ANSI/NFSI B101.1) provides a safer surface even when wet.

2. Seamless & Hygienic Design

• 100% Seamless Application: Creates a monolithic surface with no grout lines or seams where dirt, moisture, and bacteria can hide, simplifying cleaning and maintenance.

• Easy to Clean: The smooth, non-porous finish allows for quick spill cleanup with standard cleaning solutions. It can be applied in kitchens,bathrooms,and warehouses with ease.

• UV-Resistant System: Formulated to resist yellowing, maintaining its color and gloss long-term, even in sun-exposed areas.

3. Aesthetic Versatility & Customization

• Limitless Color & Design: Choose from an extensive palette of flake colors and blends to create unique patterns, corporate colors, or safety marking zones. Our design team can help bring your ideas to life.

• Multiple Finishes: Available in high-gloss, satin, or matte finishes to suit the ambiance of any space, from a sleek showroom to a functional factory floor.

• Flake Size Options: Chip sizes include 1/4″, 1/8″, or Micro flakes to achieve different visual textures and coverage densities.
