Performance Benefits of Floor Coatings Jotun floor coatings transform standard, porous concrete into a high- performance, resilient asset. While uncoated concrete is prone to cracking and dusting, a professional protective system completely alters these mechanics:

• Chemical & Liquid Isolation: Provides a seamless shield with high resistance to chemical spills and absolute liquid impermeability. This prevents hazardous materials, oils, and moisture from causing long-term structural degradation, rebar corrosion, or sub-soil contamination.
• Mechanical Resilience & Toughness: Built to endure intense physical stress, allowing the surface to handle heavy machinery footprints, forklift operations, and high point loads without fracturing or peeling.
• Impact & Abrasion Resistance: Hardening properties protect the floor against dynamic impacts (such as dropped tools or crates) and minimize surface friction wear from high-volume wheeled traffic.
• Structural Integrity via Crack Bridging: Flexible membrane properties allow the coating to stretch over microscopic fractures caused by concrete settlement or thermal expansion, maintaining a continuous, unbroken waterproof envelope.
• Hygiene, Safety, and Easy Maintenance: Eliminates concrete dusting to improve air quality. It creates highly hygienic, easy-to- clean surfaces that resist bacterial buildup and dirt accumulation, minimising cleaning overhead and operational downtime.

Industrial Usages

Jotun floor coating systems provide optimised properties tailored to three major industrial environments:

A. Heavy Logistics & Manufacturing Environments

Engineered for severe mechanical forces, continuous rolling loads, and coarse materials:

• Warehouses: Delivers high abrasion and point-load resilience to withstand heavy forklift traffic, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and racking loads.
• Loading & Unloading Areas: Built for extreme environmental transitions, heavy impact drops, and dynamic traffic friction.
• Manufacturing Plants & Assembly Units: Resists machine vibrations, tool drops, localised mechanical fluids, and frequent sweeping.

B. High-Precision & Controlled Environments

Specialised non-porous formulations designed for strict biosecurity, low dust profiles, or extreme safety protocols:

• Pharmaceuticals & Clean Rooms: Seamless finishes that eradicate microbial harbourage and withstand strict daily sterilisation and harsh sanitising chemicals.
• Laboratories & Chemical Plants: Maximum-tier chemical resistance to prevent structural erosion from direct spills, acids, organic solvents, or alkalis.
• Data Centres, AHU, & Electrical Rooms: Anti-static and dust- binding surfaces that safeguard vulnerable electronics and ventilation systems from static discharge and airborne grit.

C. Food Production & Public Infrastructure

Combines structural durability with highly specialised resistance characteristics:

• Food Processing Units: Resists organic fatty acids, sugars, and intense thermal shocks (like high-pressure steam cleaning) while remaining entirely non-toxic.
• Airports & Hangars: Engineered to support extreme aircraft wheel loads while resisting aggressive aviation fluids like Skydrol, jet fuel, and hydraulic oils.
• Hospital Operating Theatres (OT): Seamless, high-contrast finishes that maintain surgical sterility and endure corrosive clinical disinfectants.
