Durable Epoxy Flooring for Warehouses in Sydney

✔ Designed for Forklift, Pallet Jack & Loading Dock Use

If you are a warehouse manager in Sydney, you know that your floor cop a lot of abuse—forklifts, foot traffic, pallets, spills—to name a few. And let’s face it, a cracked or dusty floor isn’t just ugly, it is a liability. That’s where a high-quality epoxy coating makes a real difference.

✔ Protect Against Dust, Impact & Chemical Spills

Epoxy floors offer more than just a sleek look. It seals your concrete, resists chemicals, reduces dust, and is incredibly easy to clean. Whether you’re running a busy logistics hub or just looking to modernise a not-so-busy storage facility, a professionally installed epoxy floor will protect your investment—and probably make your life heaps easier.

Key Benefits of Epoxy Floors for Warehouses

✔ Safer Surfaces for Workers

Safety in every facility is absolutely a serious matter. Our warehouse epoxy flooring systems come with slip-resistant textures and epoxy line markings can be easily applied over them for pedestrian zones, which helps keep your team safe and your site WHS-compliant.

✔ Chemical and Spill Resistance

It is quite normal to have oil or a battery leaks. Epoxy stands up to the kinds of substances that would ruin concrete floor normally. That can be translated into less maintenance and cleanup and, fewer long-term stains.

✔ Lower Forklift Maintenance Costs

It’s not something people always think about, but a smooth epoxy surface reduces friction and wear on forklift tyres. That can translate into fewer maintenance costs and smoother operations overall.

✔ Easy-to-Clean & Dust-Free

Epoxy seals your slab so it stops kicking up dust. That means a cleaner environment, fewer respiratory issues, and less time spent sweeping.

Warehouse Epoxy Flooring Systems

✔ Roll-on heavy-duty epoxy Coating System.

This system works perfectly for all storage warehouses and light forklift traffic of forklifts up to 5 tons. The total DFT of this system reaches 300 microns (or 0.3 mm). We start preparation by diamond grinding, ensuring the surface is anchored and ready for epoxy application. Concrete cracks, spallings, and major imperfections will be filled with a two-pack fine epoxy grout. Then, we apply two consecutive coats of our premium-grade, heavy-duty, and 100% solid epoxy roll-on coating system.

✔ High Build Epoxy Flooring System.

This system is designed for worn-out concrete floors and surfaces in a bad state. Also, we advise this system for all warehouses with heavy forklift traffic or any forklift heavier than 5 tons.
The total DFT of this system is approximately 0.7-1.5 mm. We start preparation by diamond grinding, ensuring the surface is anchored and ready for epoxy application. Concrete cracks, spallings, and major imperfections will be filled with a two-pack fine epoxy grout. Then, we apply a penetrating epoxy primer and moisture barrier. Then we apply a trowel-on epoxy build coat with a flat trowel or a flat squeegee to the whole floor. This will be followed by an extra round of light grinding to remove all entrapped stones and sharp points. Right after, we apply the third and final coat. The topcoat for this system is a premium-grade, heavy-duty, and UV-stable epoxy coating system. We can mix fine non-slip grits in order to achieve a P3 anti-slip rating if the clients prefer a non-slip floor.

✔ Self-leveling Epoxy Flooring.

This system is best suited where a smooth, seamless, and perfectly even surface is required. It goes without saying that we are not able to patch thousands or even millions of tiny dents, holes, and imperfections on the floor. So, applying a self-leveling epoxy floor coating system will cover up almost all of those imperfections, resulting in an enhanced substrate.
