Understanding Your Industrial Flooring Challenges

Industrial and commercial floors face relentless challenges that can compromise safety, hygiene, and operational efficiency. Common pain points include:

• Premature Wear & Damage: Constant foot and wheeled traffic, impact from dropped tools or materials, and abrasive dirt lead to cracks, pitting, and dusting in inferior coating systems.

• Chemical Attack: Spills from oils, greases, solvents, acids, and cleaning agents can degrade standard finishes, causing staining, softening, and delamination.

• Hygiene & Cleanliness Concerns: Porous or cracked floors harbor bacteria, mold, and contaminants, making them unacceptable for food & beverage, pharmaceutical, or healthcare settings.

• Safety Hazards: Slippery surfaces when wet or contaminated pose significant slip-and-fall risks for employees and visitors.

• Downtime for Repairs: Frequent recoating or patching of failing floors disrupts operations and incurs repeated labor and material costs.

Specific Scenarios:

• Fábricas de alimentos e bebidas: Require USDA-compliant, seamless floors that withstand daily washdowns, steam, and harsh sanitizers while resisting stains from ingredients like Betadine.

• Logistics Warehouses & Distribution Centers: Need ultra-high abrasion resistance to endure constant forklift traffic, pallet dragging, and heavy rolling loads without showing wear patterns.

• Automotive & Manufacturing Shops: Demand coatings that resist hot tire pick-up, hydraulic fluids, solvents, and heavy impact from equipment.

• Commercial Parking Garages: Require a durable, UV-stable finish that maintains its color and gloss while resisting de-icing salts and weather cycles.

Polypro™ XT Topcoat TX: Your Comprehensive Flooring Solution

Our polyurethane flooring system is specifically formulated to address these exact challenges, providing a robust, long-lasting finish.

Core Product Features & Benefits:

1. Unmatched Durability & Wear Resistance:

   • Resistência à abrasão: Engineered with a hard aggregate filler, it wears 8-10 times better than many standard epoxy coatings, ideal for high-traffic corridors and production floors.

   • Mechanical Strength: Excellent tensile strength and adhesion (exceeding 350 psi with concrete substrate failure) ensure the coating withstands impact and stress without cracking or peeling.

   • Seamless & Monolithic: Creates a joint-free surface that eliminates dirt traps and prevents moisture ingress at seams, simplifying cleaning.

2. Resistência superior aos produtos químicos e às manchas:

   • Resists a wide range of industrial chemicals, oils, greases, and common disinfectants.

   • Formulated to resist staining from substances like Betadine, making it ideal for healthcare and lab environments.

   • Provides a non-porous barrier that protects the concrete substrate from corrosive spills.

3. Enhanced Safety & Functionality:

   • Anti-Slip Properties: The aggregate component can be tailored to provide the desired level of slip resistance (meeting R9-R11 ratings), crucial for areas that may become wet.

   • Easy Maintenance: The high-gloss or satin finish is resistant to scuffs and allows for quick, effective cleaning with recommended neutral or degreasing cleaners.

   • UV Stability: The aliphatic polyurethane resin ensures excellent color and gloss retention, preventing yellowing or chalking, which is vital for areas with natural light or exterior applications.

4. Application & Performance Flexibility:

   • Versatile Thickness: Can be applied in a range from 10 to 25 mils dry film thickness to meet specific performance requirements.

   • Fast Cure Times: Allows for quicker return-to-service, minimizing facility downtime. (Dry to touch in ~12 hours, light foot traffic in ~18-24 hours).

   • Low VOC & Water-Based Options: Available formulations support compliance with stringent indoor air quality regulations and are acceptable for use in sensitive environments.

Professional Installation & Technical Support

Optimal performance of any resinous flooring system depends on proper installation. We strongly recommend using trained and certified contractors.

Principais etapas de instalação:

1. Preparação da superfície: Concrete must be abrasive blasted to a CSP 1-3 profile, clean, dry, and sound. Moisture vapor emission rates must be verified per ASTM standards.

2. Priming: Application of a compatible epoxy or urethane basecoat (e.g., at 200-250 sq ft/gal) to seal the substrate and ensure adhesion.

3. Optional Body Coat: For filling imperfections or building thickness, a mortar or leveling coat may be applied.

4. Aplicação do revestimento superior: The Polypro™ XT Topcoat is mixed with the integral aggregate and applied via roller at a rate of ~400 sq ft/gal to achieve a uniform, high-build finish.

5. Curing: Allow prescribed cure times before exposing to water or chemical traffic.

KAIDA PAINT provides unparalleled support: From initial site assessment and specification guidance to on-site technical assistance for our network of approved installers, we ensure your project is a success from the ground up.

Perguntas frequentes (FAQ)

1. What is Polypro™ XT Topcoat TX?

Polypro™ XT Topcoat TX is a high-performance, water-based aliphatic polyurethane floor coating system fortified with a durable aggregate. It is designed to provide an exceptionally abrasion-resistant, seamless, and chemical-resistant finish for industrial and commercial concrete floors.

2. How does it compare to standard epoxy flooring?

Polypro™ XT Topcoat TX offers 8-10 times better abrasion resistance than many standard epoxy coatings. It also provides superior UV stability (resists yellowing), better flexibility to resist thermal cracking, and enhanced resistance to certain chemicals and wear patterns in high-traffic areas.

3. Where is this flooring system best used?

It is ideal for areas subject to heavy wear, chemical exposure, and requiring high hygiene standards. Common applications include manufacturing plants, food & beverage processing facilities, warehouses, loading docks, commercial kitchens, laboratories, healthcare corridors, and parking garages.

4. What is the required floor preparation?

The concrete substrate must be clean, sound, and free of contaminants, moisture, and old coatings. It typically requires abrasive blasting to achieve a CSP 1-3 surface profile. Proper moisture testing (per ASTM standards) is mandatory before application.

5. What is the application thickness and coverage?

The system is designed to be applied at 10-25 mils (0.25-0.64 mm) total dry film thickness. The topcoat typically covers approximately 400 square feet per gallon to achieve a 4-mil wet film thickness.
