Heavy Duty Screed Flooring

Epoxy & Polyurethane Industrial Screed Flooring

Polyurethane in heavy duty screed flooring offers the highest level of durability available to date. They are generally laid between 6 and 9mm but exceptionally up to 12mm; having a life span of 10 or more years in the toughest of environments.

Epoxy and polyurethane screed flooring is generally a liquid resin with aggregate mixed together to produce a flooring screed. Used if you have a floor that is badly worn or damaged in order to get it back to a high standard. Polyurethane screeds are widely used in the food industry because they provide a floor that is hygienic, slip resistant, extremely hard wearing and when applied at thicknesses of 9 millimetres or more can be steam cleaned. Screed flooring is available in any combination of colours and can be highly decorative. Company logos can be incorporated into the finish to further enhance the image of your floor.

At Impact Flooring, we employ the use of various types of base screeds, from polymer resins to bulk polyurethane screeds, to create slopes and falls when installing, or to existing drainage systems. A coved skirting can be installed in the same or a contrasting colour, fitted flush to the wall making this a complete resin flooring solution for your company.

Heavily filled trowel finished screed flooring systems applied at a thickness greater than 4mm, generally incorporating a surface seal coat to minimise porosity. This flooring system has evolved from the original floor repair compounds and is mainly based on epoxies.

Heavy Duty Industries

Although the food industry is a key industry that widely uses polyurethane screeds, these systems are also well suited to many industries. Heavy duty industries will utilise these systems due to their hard wearing properties and can handle heavy traffic such as forklifts and will last for many years. Screed floors are particularly useful when installing drainage systems due to the quick turn around and little work disruption they cause.

Where is best to use Polyurethane Screed Flooring?

Polyurethane resin screed is suitable for most industries due to its hard wearing characteristics and durability but is particularly suited for the stringent hygienic demands of the food environment, being totally impervious and of the highest order of chemical resistance, is able to withstand the vigorous cleaning regime required by the food industry installed at 9mm or above withstands steam cleaning up to at least 130 degrees centigrade.

Research has shown that this system impedes bacterial growth allowing no traces of absorption within the product.

Tests for taint and volatile components found no contamination and the products were judged impervious, non-porous, washable and non-toxic. Due to these properties, polyurethane screen flooring is ideal for the food industry as it can be installed without any risk to food production.

Polyurethane resin screed flooring can be installed with very little disruption to your food production process. This is due to the product not affecting the food, having no odours and Impact Flooring using food grade materials. They can also be used to install drains, slopes and falls, which is an important element to consider within this industry. They can incorporate heavy non-slip as well as chemical resistance to products such as food acids, lactic acids etc.
