End-to-End Expertise
From initial consultation and surface preparation through to application and handover, all work is completed by experienced in-house specialists. Our streamlined process minimises disruption, ensuring your facility remains operational while achieving a tough, seamless finish.
The Benefits of Chemical & Abrasion Resistant Coatings
Choosing chemical resistant flooring provides essential protection for environments exposed to harsh conditions, heavy wear, and strict safety requirements.
Superior Chemical Resistance
Chemical resistant coatings create a durable, non-porous barrier against acids, oils, solvents, fuels, and cleaning agents. This protection prevents staining, chemical penetration, and surface breakdown over time.
Exceptional Abrasion Resistance
Built for demanding environments, these coatings withstand constant foot traffic, forklift movement, and heavy machinery use. The surface maintains its integrity even under continuous mechanical stress.
Seamless & Hygienic Surface
The seamless finish eliminates joints and weak points where chemicals, moisture, or contaminants can accumulate. This helps maintain surface integrity while improving hygiene and cleanliness.
Structural Concrete Protection
By shielding the concrete substrate from chemical attack and abrasion, these coatings prevent cracking, erosion, and long-term structural damage. This preserves the strength and usability of the floor.
Reduced Maintenance & Repair Costs
Protective coatings minimise surface wear, reducing the frequency of repairs and resurfacing. This results in lower maintenance costs and a longer overall floor lifespan.
Improved Safety & Compliance
Slip-resistant textures can be incorporated to improve traction in wet or hazardous areas. This supports safer working conditions and helps meet workplace health and safety requirements.
Our Chemical & Abrasion Resistant Coating Systems
At Solid Floors, we deliver tailored protective coating systems using premium-grade materials selected for durability, safety, and long-term performance. Every system is designed to suit the specific conditions of your environment.
Chemical Resistant Epoxy Flooring
Chemical resistant epoxy flooring is one of the most effective solutions for protecting concrete surfaces in high-risk environments. Using high-performance epoxy coatings, we create tough, seamless floors that resist chemical attack and mechanical wear.
Epoxy coating systems offer:
- Excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, and solvents
- High abrasion and impact resistance
- Seamless, non-porous surfaces
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
Polyurethane Protective Coatings
Polyurethane coatings provide enhanced flexibility and resistance to temperature variation, making them suitable for environments exposed to thermal stress. These systems are commonly used where both chemical resistance and comfort underfoot are required.
Benefits include:
- Resistance to thermal shock
- Improved slip resistance options
- Enhanced durability in fluctuating conditions
- Long-term performance under constant use
Heavy-Duty Abrasion Resistant Systems
For areas exposed to extreme wear, we install high-build coating systems engineered specifically to handle constant abrasion. These systems are ideal for forklift traffic zones, loading bays, and production floors.
Features include:
- Increased coating thickness for added protection
- Exceptional resistance to mechanical wear
- Extended lifespan in high-impact areas
- Reduced surface breakdown over time

Frequently Asked Questions
Chemical resistant flooring is specifically formulated to withstand aggressive substances such as acids, oils, solvents, and fuels. Unlike standard coatings, it provides a durable barrier that protects the concrete substrate from staining, corrosion, and long-term damage, making it ideal for industrial and commercial environments.
Yes, chemical resistant epoxy flooring is designed to endure heavy machinery, forklift traffic, and constant operational wear. When properly specified and installed, it maintains its integrity, ensuring a safe and durable surface in demanding industrial settings.
In most cases, yes. Existing concrete surfaces can be repaired and prepared to create a clean, stable base for the coating system, allowing for strong adhesion without the need for full slab replacement, saving time and cost.
With the correct system selection and proper maintenance, chemical resistant coatings can last many years. Even in high-traffic or chemically demanding environments, these floors maintain performance and appearance over the long term.
Yes, slip-resistant additives can be incorporated into the coating to improve traction. This enhances workplace safety and ensures compliance with health and safety regulations in wet, hazardous, or high-risk areas.
No specialised maintenance is needed. Routine cleaning with suitable products is sufficient to maintain both performance and appearance, making the floors easy to care for while extending their lifespan.
Costs are influenced by factors such as the condition of the substrate, level of chemical exposure, system type, coating thickness, and any safety or aesthetic requirements. A professional site assessment ensures accurate specification and pricing for each project.
