Why ESD-Safe Flooring Matters for Data Centers

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a silent threat to mission-critical IT equipment. Small static events can damage processors, storage, and networking hardware — sometimes without immediate symptoms. Traditional flooring materials such as bare concrete, tile, or carpet allow dust, moisture migration, and static accumulation that put servers at risk. In Vancouver’s variable climate, humidity and dust cycles add additional stressors.

Priority One Epoxy Flooring installs seamless epoxy and urethane flooring systems engineered to be dust-free, conductive or dissipative, moisture-resistant, and highly durable — delivering continuous protection for server rooms, telecom closets, and cloud data centers.

Advanced Flooring Systems for Mission-Critical Environments

We design and install flooring systems specific to data center needs — balancing electrostatic control, moisture mitigation, load capacity, and hygiene.

ESD-Safe Epoxy Coatings

Electrostatic-dissipative epoxy prevents uncontrolled transfer of charges that could damage electronics. Our systems are installed and documented to meet ANSI/ESD and IEC standards where required, providing consistent resistance values across the entire floor.

Seamless & Hygienic Surfaces

Seamless finishes eliminate grout lines and cracks where dust and particulates accumulate. This simplifies cleaning, reduces particulate contamination, and helps maintain stable cooling and airflow performance.

Impact & Load Resistance

Our high-compression epoxy systems resist point loads and rolling loads from server racks, cable trays, and maintenance carts without delamination or cracking — an essential quality for facilities with heavy equipment.

Moisture & Chemical Protection

Moisture vapor barriers and chemically resistant topcoats prevent slab moisture and incidental spills from compromising sensitive hardware. Systems are selected to withstand coolants, cleaning agents, and other site-specific exposures.

Customizable Systems

We provide conductive, dissipative, or hybrid floor assemblies with decorative zoning and color coding where required for safety and facility organization. Floors can be tailored for raised-floor penetrations, anti-fatigue areas, and maintenance corridors.

Our Data Center Flooring Services

ESD & Conductive Flooring Systems

Static-dissipative and conductive epoxy installations, custom-designed to sustain safe resistance ranges for IT environments.

Moisture Vapor Barriers

Mitigation systems to prevent vapor drive from slab-on-grade that can cause bond failures and corrosion issues beneath raised floors.

Surface Prep & Crack Repair

Shot blasting, diamond grinding, patching, and joint repair to create a stable substrate for long-lasting adhesion.

Heavy-Duty Epoxy & Urethane Coatings

High compression and impact-resistant coatings for areas with heavy racks, forklifts, and maintenance traffic.

Fast-Cure & Low-Disruption Installations

Phased approaches and fast-curing polyaspartic/urethane options to minimize downtime and keep facilities operational.

Case Study: Burnaby Telecom Data Center

Challenge: An aging server room experienced high humidity from the concrete slab, dust contamination, and an old coating failing beneath heavy racks.

Solution: Priority One Epoxy Flooring performed full moisture testing and mitigation, prepared the substrate via shot blasting, installed a conductive primer and a multi-layer static-dissipative epoxy system, and provided certified resistance testing.

Result: The facility recorded zero static incidents after turnover, achieved ANSI/ESD S20.20 compliance documentation, and realized a dust-free environment that extended equipment life and reduced maintenance interventions.

Maintenance & Lifespan of Epoxy Server Room Floors

Daily/Weekly cleaning: Anti-static mops and vacuums to remove particulates. No waxing required.
Spill management: Epoxy resists common coolants and cleaning agents; wipe up spills promptly.
ESD audits: Annual or semi-annual resistance testing to confirm continued compliance.
Lifespan: Properly installed epoxy or urethane systems commonly last 15–20 years.

Cost Considerations for Data Center Epoxy Floors

Pricing varies by project scope and technical requirements. Typical factors include:

Square footage and facility layout
Existing slab condition and required surface prep
Need for moisture mitigation or vapor barriers
System type (standard epoxy vs. ESD/conductive systems)
Number of layers, topcoats, and special finishes

Typical ranges (BC):

Standard epoxy flooring: $6 – $9 per sq. ft.
ESD / Conductive epoxy systems: $12 – $20 per sq. ft.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do data centers need ESD flooring?

Static discharge can damage sensitive electronics. ESD flooring safely dissipates charges, protecting servers, storage systems, and networking hardware from damaging events.

How long does epoxy server room flooring last?

With professional installation and routine care, epoxy and urethane systems typically last 10–20 years depending on traffic and environmental conditions.

Can epoxy floors handle heavy server racks?

Yes. Our high-compression epoxy systems are formulated to withstand heavy point loads and rolling loads without cracking or delaminating.

How do you test an ESD floor?

We use calibrated resistance meters and follow industry protocols. Testing is documented and can be performed at turnover and on a scheduled basis to confirm ANSI/ESD and IEC benchmarks.

Will installation close my facility?

We phase work and offer fast-cure systems to limit downtime. Many installations can be completed in sections so critical spaces remain operational.

Do you provide warranties?

Yes. Warranties vary by system but typically range from 5–10 years depending on product selection and project scope.

Are epoxy systems environmentally friendly?

We offer low-VOC epoxy and polyurethane options that align with LEED and green-building initiatives when required.

Can you install over existing floor coverings?

Often yes — if the existing substrate can be prepared and profiled. We evaluate each site to determine the best preparation strategy.

What industries commonly use ESD flooring?

Telecom, cloud data centers, banking & finance IT rooms, government server facilities, university labs, and research centers all commonly specify ESD flooring for protection.
