Industrial Epoxy Flooring & Heavy-Duty Resin Floor Systems
Forklift-Ready • Chemical-Resistant • Built for Demanding Operations
Priority One Epoxy Flooring designs and installs industrial resin flooring systems for manufacturing, service bays, wash areas, utilities, hangars, and specialized environments across Vancouver BC and Western Canada.
Our seamless, non-dusting floors are engineered for chemical exposure, heavy wear, moisture risk, and safety requirements—helping you reduce downtime, protect concrete slabs, and keep operations running smoothly.
Industrial Epoxy Flooring Built for Chemicals, Heavy Wear & 24/7 Operations
Industrial floors don’t fail because “epoxy is bad” — they fail when the slab isn’t prepared correctly, the system isn’t matched to exposure, or moisture vapour is ignored. In active facilities, that can mean peeling, wear patterns, dusting, and constant patchwork that disrupts production.
Priority One Epoxy Flooring designs and installs industrial resin flooring systems for manufacturing, processing, service bays, wash areas, hangars, utilities, infrastructure buildings, and specialized environments across Vancouver, the Lower Mainland, BC and Western Canada. We build around your loads, chemicals, traction requirements, and downtime windows so performance stays predictable long-term.
Why Industrial Facilities Specify Engineered Resin Systems
Industrial resin flooring is more than a coating — it’s a protective system that supports safety, cleanliness, and uptime in high-stress environments. The right build protects the slab from chemical attack, abrasion, impact, and moisture-related failure.
Protect Concrete and Reduce Repairs
- Wear resistance where abrasion and equipment movement are constant
- Chemical resistance where fluids and cleaners are part of daily operations
- Impact tolerance where dropped tools, parts, and pallets are common
- Joint protection to reduce edge failure and spalling
Support Safety, Compliance and Cleanability
- Dust control to protect product, packaging and equipment
- Traction tuning for wet or oily areas without making cleaning miserable
- Striping and zoning for walkways, routes and hazard areas
- Predictable maintenance with re-topcoat planning instead of patchwork
We start with your realities: exposure profile (chemical/thermal/wet), traffic, substrate condition, and downtime constraints. The right system is the one that fits your operation.
Industrial Resin Flooring Systems We Install
We specify systems based on your exposure profile and performance requirements. Below is a practical overview of common industrial builds and where they fit.
| System Type | Best For | Strength | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| High-Build 100% Solids Epoxy | General industrial floors, maintenance bays, equipment areas | Strong adhesion, non-dusting, durable under daily wear | Great base system; can be zoned or upgraded by area |
| Quartz / Silica Broadcast Epoxy | Wet/oily areas, ramps, service zones, wash areas | Traction + durability with textured wear surface | Texture selected to balance traction and cleanability |
| Polyurethane / Polyaspartic Topcoats | Enhanced wear resistance, stain resistance, cleanability | Protects the system and improves maintenance performance | If UV stability / fast cure is primary: see Polyaspartic page |
| Urethane-Cement (PU-Cement) | Thermal shock, aggressive washdown, harsh wet-use | Extreme-duty performance in tough environments | Common in wash bays and harsh cleaning regimes |
| ESD / Specialty Systems | Electronics, data environments, labs, controlled spaces | Meets specialized requirements and risk controls | Specified to the site’s compliance / operational needs |
High-Build Epoxy Systems
High-build epoxy creates a seamless, non-dusting surface with excellent adhesion when installed over mechanically prepared concrete.
Quartz / Silica Broadcast Systems for Traction and Durability
Broadcast systems add aggregate into the build to deliver controlled traction and a tougher wear surface in wet or slip-prone areas.
Urethane-Cement for Thermal Shock and Harsh Wet-Use
Where frequent hot-water washdown, thermal cycling, or aggressive cleaning is part of operations, urethane-cement systems can be the right solution.
ESD and Specialty Requirements
For facilities with electronics, sensitive equipment, or compliance requirements, we can specify ESD-dissipative or specialty systems aligned to the risk profile.
If the project is primarily about UV stability and fast return-to-service, see: Polyaspartic Floor Coating Vancouver.

Our Industrial Epoxy Flooring Installation Process
Most coating failures trace back to poor preparation, unaddressed substrate issues, or system mismatch. Our process is built for bond strength, durability, and predictable performance.
- Assessment & scope: exposure profile, traffic, safety needs, downtime windows
- System design: select resin system and traction approach by zone
- Mechanical preparation: create the correct profile for long-term bond
- Repairs & joints: cracks, spalls, edges, and joint treatments
- Priming: match primer to slab condition and system build
- Build coats: install to the specified thickness and performance
- Broadcast traction (where needed): tune texture by area
- Topcoats: select for wear, chemical resistance, and maintenance profile
- Markings (optional): walkways, routes, hazards, and visual zoning
- Handover: reopening guidance + maintenance recommendations
Many industrial projects can be staged by lanes, rooms, or production windows to reduce disruption.
Industrial Epoxy Flooring vs. Bare Concrete & Paint
Bare slabs and thin paint coatings often look acceptable at first, then fail under industrial reality: dust contamination, staining, wear in traffic routes, and inconsistent traction.
We’ll help you compare options so you understand the true lifecycle cost based on your facility’s exposure profile.
Case Study: Multi-Shift Facility in the Lower Mainland
A busy multi-shift facility faced dusting concrete, accelerated wear in critical routes, and frequent patching near service zones. We delivered a phased approach designed around uptime.
Scope + Build
- Mechanical preparation and repairs in high-use zones
- Traction-focused build in wet/service areas
- Smoother finish where carts and cleaning efficiency mattered
- Optional striping for routes and hazard awareness
Outcome
- Reduced dust on equipment and surrounding areas
- More predictable cleaning and maintenance routines
- Improved safety in slip-prone zones
- Cleaner, more professional presentation for audits

Industrial Epoxy Flooring FAQ
Is industrial epoxy flooring strong enough for heavy use?
Yes — when the system is specified for your exposure profile and installed over correctly prepared concrete. Zoning higher-build systems in high-stress areas is common.
How thick should an industrial resin floor be?
Thickness depends on traffic, impact risk, and chemical exposure. High-stress areas typically require thicker multi-layer builds.
How long does installation take?
Timelines vary by repairs, size, and system type. Many facilities phase work by area to keep operations moving.
Can you work around equipment and production schedules?
Yes. Phased installs, off-hours work, and coordination are common in active facilities.
Industrial vs warehouse epoxy flooring — what’s the difference?
Industrial floors are engineered for chemical exposure, wet-use cleaning, thermal cycling, and specialized requirements. Warehouse floors focus on logistics traffic, docks, and maintainability. For storage/logistics facilities, start here: Warehouse & Storage Epoxy Flooring.
