Flooring for manufacturing and industrial plants

Plant floors take impact, rolling loads, oils and chemicals. We match each zone to a system that can handle its real conditions.

One plant can need several floor systems. A machining area sees oil and dropped parts. A wash bay sees hot water. An electronics line needs static control. We map the plant by zone and select the system that fits each one, from thick epoxy and quartz to urethane cement and ESD flooring. Damaged slabs are repaired and levelled first so the new floor sits on a sound base.

Plants cannot stop for long. We schedule around shutdowns, work nights and weekends, and phase the work so production keeps running in the areas we are not in. Our installation teams have over 20 years of experience, and every crew member is WHMIS and First Aid trained, with Working at Heights mandatory.

What the floor has to handle

Built for how the space is used

Impact and abrasionDropped parts and steel wheels gouge thin coatings. Thicker epoxy, quartz or urethane cement systems resist impact and wear.
Oils and chemicalsCutting fluids, solvents and acids break down weak floors. We select resins for the specific chemicals in each zone.
Static dischargeElectronics assembly needs controlled static. ESD flooring provides a conductive or dissipative path to ground.
Damaged slabsOld plant floors have cracks, spalls and uneven joints. We repair and level the slab before coating.
Integral coving

Why coves matter

A cove carries the floor up the wall in one seamless piece. There's no joint at the base of the wall for water, chemicals or bacteria to get into.

DELAGA installs radius and 45° coves from 2" to 9" high, in the same resin as the floor, so floor and wall base clean as one surface.

Waterproof wall baseWith a urethane cement or polyurethane system, floor and cove form one sealed, chemical-resistant surface. Wash-down water stays out of the wall joint.
No mould at the wall lineMoisture can't seep into the floor-to-wall joint, so mould and bacteria have nowhere to grow.
Faster, cleaner wash-downRadius coves have no corner for dirt to pack into. Hoses and squeegees reach every edge.
A detail inspectors look forSealed, cleanable wall bases are expected in food, healthcare and lab spaces. Coves help your facility meet that standard.

Common in commercial kitchens, food processing, hospitals and labs, manufacturing and mechanical rooms.

Questions

Manufacturing & Industrial Plants: FAQ

Can you install during a plant shutdown?

Yes. Shutdowns, weekends and nights are common for plant work. We plan the sequence so each area returns to service on time.

Do you do different systems in one plant?

Yes. We often install several systems in one building, each matched to how that zone is used. It avoids overspending on areas with lighter demands.

What does ESD flooring need to work?

It needs a proper ground connection and regular testing. We install the system to a target resistance range set by your requirements.

Can you remove our old coating?

Yes. We remove failed coatings, tile and adhesives by grinding or shot blasting, then prepare the slab for the new system.
