In spaces where chemicals, liquids and cleaning agents are used regularly, the floor has to meet different demands than in a standard commercial space. A chemical-resistant industrial floor helps protect the substrate and supports a safe work environment that is easy to clean. This matters because these floors can come into contact with acids, alkalis, oils, fuels and other process substances. Depending on concentration, temperature and contact time, these substances can affect the floor finish and the substrate.
A closed, seamless floor finish reduces the risk of liquids, dirt or chemicals soaking into the substrate. The floor stays easy to oversee in use and simpler to maintain.
Not every chemical load calls for the same floor build-up. The properties of the substances, how often they are present and the temperature on the work floor determine the protection you need. The condition of the existing substrate and the way the space is cleaned also influence the right finish.
HIM offers epoxy floors and coatings, among others, for facilities where liquid-tightness, cleanability and chemical resistance matter. The floor build-up is matched to the conditions in the space, so it fits your daily operations.
A chemical-resistant industrial floor contributes to a safe work environment. If the floor is exposed to damp conditions, or there is a risk of this, it can be finished with an anti-slip texture. The level of roughness is matched to the work being done and the cleanability you need. Line markings and signage can also be applied to make work zones, walkways and safety areas clearly visible.
HIM supplies flooring solutions for production areas, laboratories, technical spaces and other commercial environments where chemical exposure plays a role. With the right floor build-up, you get a durable finish that protects the substrate and meets the demands of your work environment.

Chemical resistantThe floor build-up is matched to the chemicals present, the contact time and the temperature. This helps the floor finish protect the substrate as well as possible.
Seamless and liquid-tightA closed, seamless finish helps keep liquids, dirt and residue out of joints, gaps and the substrate. This supports a clean work environment that is easy to maintain.
Anti-slip finishWhere needed, the floor can be finished with an anti-slip texture. The texture is matched to the work being done, the likelihood of spills and the cleanability you need.

Yes. The floor can be given an anti-slip finish, matched to the likelihood of moisture or spills and the level of cleanability required.
Category:
A seamless, closed finish limits dirt build-up and makes it easier to remove liquids and dirt. How easy the floor is to clean ultimately depends on the floor texture you choose and how the space is used.
Category:
A chemical-resistant industrial floor is suitable in spaces where the floor can come into contact with chemicals, oils, fuels, cleaning agents or other liquids. The right floor build-up depends on the substances present and the conditions in which the floor is used.
