Specifying a System

What changes from one environment to the next.

Film build
Light commercial runs thinner; aircraft hangars start at 45 mils and aerospace self-leveling systems at 60 mils for impact and abrasion.
Chemical exposure
Petrochemicals and Skydrol in aviation, acids and sugars in beverage production, medicated waste in animal care, hair dye and nail chemistry in salons.
Thermal cycling
Kitchens and breweries need thermal shock resistance for steam and boiling-water cleaning; cold storage and freezers need stability at the other extreme.
Slip resistance
Coefficient of friction is adjustable by system — wet-area, kitchen, and pool deck installs are specified higher to meet or exceed ADA recommendations.
Hygiene standards
Food service, grocery, and healthcare require seamless, non-porous, antimicrobial surfaces that are FDA, USDA, and CFIA acceptable.
Surface prep
Every system starts with the right Concrete Surface Profile. Grinders and dustless vacuums are available to rent from the Corona yard.
Downtime
Fast-set curing options keep hangars, retail floors, and service bays out of production for as little time as the schedule allows.
