Epoxy & Urethane Mortars – Outstanding Wear Protection
Industrial flooring for Manufacturing and other Heavy Traffic areas
Epoxy Mortars
Our epoxy mortar systems are available in water based and Novolac epoxy systems.
- Used to provide superior durability
- Ideal for floors exposed to very heavy traffic
- Withstands abuse from wide range of chemicals, acids, solvents, etc.
- Able to repair holes and clean up damaged surfaces
This system can be topped with another type of coating for additional capabilities. These systems typically come in Tile Red and Gray.
Urethane Mortars
Our urethane mortar systems include water based cement urethanes and self-leveling versions.
- Outstanding wear performance
- Withstands higher heat exposure than typical urethanes; handles up to 300 degrees F
- Good thermal shock capabilities
- Good choice for hot wash down areas
- Withstands heavy and abusive service
- Durable shock resistance
Much like the epoxy mortars, the urethane mortars only come in Tile Red and Gray.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Epoxy and urethane mortar does cost more and is placed at a much thicker film thickness than traditional epoxies and urethanes.
Minimal thickness is often 1/8″, but 1/4″ is typical of urethane and epoxy mortar systems. Some systems can also be installed as a slurry/broadcast system and can be gauged thinner than 1/4″.
Thermal shock to a floor system occurs when a liquid comes in contact with the floor where there is a large temperature gradient and the resulting stress may damage the floor. Example: cleaning a very cold floor with a steam generator
Urethane mortars can withstand the stress of thermal shock far better than concrete and typical epoxy systems.
