Urethane Cement Flooring Solutions
Flooring failures in industrial and commercial environments can cause huge inconveniences and losses. Whether you operate in an environment with extreme temperature swings, corrosive chemicals, or constant heavy traffic, your floor system must hold up. Urethane concrete floor coatings provide a robust foundation to withstand challenging environments.
At Surface Technology Inc., we have the expertise and technology to provide customized commercial cement flooring solutions that deliver superior protection and performance, depending on your needs. Thanks to decades of experience and national reach, we provide top-quality installations that ensure minimal downtime and maximum value.
What Is Urethane Cement Flooring?
Urethane concrete, or urethane cement, is an industrial concrete floor coating that binds engineered cement powder and aggregate powders to form a tough floor surface suitable for heavy-duty environments. This coating resists chemicals, impact, abrasion, and thermal shock. Urethane concrete systems are appropriate for use in areas exposed to hot and cold water washdown, such as food and beverage manufacturing facilities and pharmaceutical production plants.
Advantages of Cementitious Urethane Flooring
Urethane cement flooring systems are a smart investment if you need to protect, restore, or enhance the floor in your commercial or industrial building. Below are the key reasons facility managers choose urethane concrete floor coatings over traditional epoxy and other resinous flooring options:
- Exceptional durability: Urethane cement’s resilience ensures long-lasting protection against wear and tear in even the harshest environments.
- Moisture insensitivity: Unlike other coatings, builders can apply urethane cement to green or damp concrete without waiting for the typical 28 days of curing.
- Thermal shock resistance: Urethane cement flooring can withstand extreme temperature changes, which is particularly beneficial for industries where regular temperature fluctuations are typical.
- Fast installation and minimal downtime: Most cementitious urethane flooring installations can be completed in as little as three days, often over a weekend, keeping your operations on track.
- Hygienic and easy to clean: Urethane cement creates a smooth, nonporous surface that is easy to maintain and clean. Its seamless finish prevents dirt, dust, and bacteria from accumulating, making it an excellent choice for industries with strict cleanliness standards.
- Low VOC: These flooring systems emit minimal low volatile organic compounds (VOCs), providing a safer work environment.
- Customizable design options: Urethane concrete floor coating is available in various colors and finishes, allowing businesses to customize the look of their floors to match their branding or aesthetic preferences.
- Long-term cost efficiency: Durable surfaces such as polyurethane cement flooring reduce the need for frequent repairs or replacements, protecting your bottom line over the flooring’s life cycle.
How Is a Urethane Concrete Floor Coating Installed?
Surface Technology Inc. uses this proven process for industrial urethane cement installation:
- We prepare the surface with a diamond grinder or shot blast machine to remove all dust and debris and fill any cracks and holes as needed.
- Our specialists mix the two-component urethane polymer before adding the fillers (cement and aggregate). We combine the ingredients in the proper order and quantity to achieve optimal results.
- Next, we pour the mixture onto the floor and spread it with a large screed, trowel, or notched squeegee.
- After applying the mixture, we back-roll with a spiked roller to eliminate air bubbles and other gas pockets that may have formed from the urethane.
- Finally, we spread quartz particles or other finish granules on the surface after back-rolling while the mixture is still wet.
