In this section, you can familiarize yourself with numerous options for modern flooring from the world's best manufacturers.
We will study what modern industrial floors in Ukraine are made by contractors - rugs?
The most popular industrial floors in Ukraine
-
Concrete industrial floors.
-
Self-leveling industrial floors.
-
Polyurethane industrial floors.
-
Industrial floors with shake hardener.
-
Self-levelling cement-based industrial floors.
-
Self-leveling polymeric industrial floors.
Under the term "floor coverings", we will mean any kind of finishing coating, for all types of floors.
Depending on the field of application of floor coverings and floors, we distinguish three areas.
Polymer floors for a warehouse
Scope of floor coverings and floors
-
Industrial floor coverings and floors.
-
Commercial floor coverings and floors.
- Household floor coverings and floors.
In the modern world, the boundaries of the use of floors have long been erased, only for one area.
Industrial floor coverings and floors can be found in commercial projects. For example, industrial floor toppings are often used in office spaces, thanks to the popularization of the LOFT industrial design solution.
And commercial wear-resistant linoleum is used in private construction or renovation, for example, as flooring for a kitchen or living room.
The main criterion for the correct choice of the finishing floor is the wear resistance of the coating, which will be used in different conditions.

Industrial floor coverings and floors
Industrial finishes include all types of flooring systems that withstand high, intense and extreme loads.
Industrial floors must have high chemical and physical-mechanical characteristics, for example:
-
high resistance to aggressive environment;
-
high strength;
-
high wear resistance;
- durability;

Warehouse topping industrial floors
Technologies for industrial flooring and floors
Topping | Cement hardener for concrete floors | Industrial floor
Shake hardener for industrial floors has been used in Ukraine for more than 20 years.
During this time, the cement hardener for concrete has established itself as a wear-resistant, dust-removing and durable coating for industrial floors.
What is topping?
Topping is a dry mixture, cement-based, with a certain type of filler (quartz, corundum, metal). With the addition of unique chemical additives and impurities.
Topping is spread on fresh concrete, rubbed with a disc and blades, thereby forming a 2-5 mm wear-resistant coating on concrete floors.
Benefits of Shake Hardener for Industrial Floors
-
Service life of hardener floors, at average loadings, 10-20 years.
-
High wear resistance of an industrial floor.
-
Dust-free industrial floor.
-
Durability of the finish.
-
Low system cost.
Disadvantages of topping for industrial floors
-
Mainly grey. Colored coatings are possible, but it is difficult to maintain one tone, unlike polymer coatings.
-
Low resistance to aggressive media (acids, alkalis).
- Perhaps the appearance of microcracks "Spider line". This natural feature of the cementitious hardener for concrete floors, the topping shrinks as it ages. Visually, microcracks may be visible and not aesthetically pleasing, but they do not affect the performance of the floor. In the future, they can be eliminated by grinding and polishing the base.

Polymer flooring | Polymer floors | Self-leveling industrial floors
Polymer bulk floors are a symbiosis of various types of resins and a hardener, when mixed, a polymer suspension is formed. In the future, the polymer composition is distributed over the prepared concrete base.
After drying, the surface of the industrial floor has high physical and mechanical characteristics, high resistance to aggressive substances, seamlessness, aesthetics.

Types of polymer coatings for industrial floors
-
Epoxy coatings.
-
Polyurethane coatings.
-
Acrylic coatings.
-
Polyuria coverage.
-
Methyl methacrylate coatings (MMA).
- Polyurethane methyl methacrylate (PMMA).
According to your specification for your floor, our experts will select an effective polymer coating system.
The install of polymer coatings in Ukraine is performed by qualified contractors with many years of experience.

Industrial resin floor
Self-leveling cement coating | Self-levelling cement-based industrial floors
Industrial leveling cement mixture or self-levelling industrial floors are cement-based dry powder with the addition of a complex of chemical additives.
-
When mixed with water, it forms a pourable mixture that is spread over old or new concrete substrates.
-
After maturation, the coating becomes wear-resistant, waterproof and durable.
-
The self-leveling coating can be used as a top coat and as a base for laying ceramic tiles or commercial linoleum.
- Self- leveling cement floors are applied using the Wet to Dry or Wet to Dry method.
Self-leveling cement floors
Advantages of poured cement industrial coating
-
Quick set of strength.
-
Repair of an old concrete floor.
-
High strength and wear resistance.
-
Repair of concrete floors in 2 days.
Disadvantages of self-leveling industrial floor
-
High cost of coverage.
- Low resistance to aggressive environment.

Ceramic Industrial Acid Resistant Tile
Acid-resistant ceramic tiles are used in food production (meat processing plants, dairies, beverage production), as well as in manufacturing plants where there is an aggressive environment that destroys the concrete base (chemical workshop, laboratories).
Tiles for food production
Benefits of Acid Resistant Tile
-
Resistance to acids and alkalis.
-
Temperature resistance.
-
Bacteria resistance.
- Convenient to clean and clean.
Disadvantages of Ceramic Acid Resistant Tile
High cost of coverage.
Acid-resistant ceramic tiles
Commercial flooring
Commercial floors are floors that are used in civil and commercial construction, with pedestrian loads.
As a rule, these include: commercial linoleum, semi-commercial linoleum (calendered linoleum, heterogeneous linoleum, homogeneous linoleum), commercial carpet, ceramic tiles, polymer floors, rubber tiles, pvc tiles and other types of vinyl flooring.
On the roofs of such facilities, it has become popular to use outdoor terrace flooring.
Creating an additional resting place for office workers or residents of the house.

-
Educational establishments.
-
Hospitals, clinics, laboratories.
- Floor coverings for the restaurant.

Domestic floors are the floors that we operate at home.
Modern floor coverings for an apartment or a private house are presented in numerous design solutions in Ukraine.
Calendered linoleum for an apartment
Basically, these are pedestrian loads, so they include: flooring parquet, laminate, calendered linoleum, heterogeneous linoleum, homogeneous linoleum, ceramic tiles, pvc tiles, modular flooring, rubber tiles.
In private housing construction, it is necessary to choose the right floor coverings for underfloor heating or for a bathroom, shower room, children's room, balcony, kitchen or garage.
Polymer floor coverings for balconies
In domestic floors, we can also use both industrial and commercial coatings, no one forbids it, it all depends on the need to use this or that floor.
