Core Advantages of Epoxy Flooring Flakes
Decorative chip systems offer a cost-effective way to enhance the look of your concrete surfaces. These systems provide a stunning decorative finish that won’t break the bank.
A key advantage of flake systems is customization. We have several options available and can even customize your system to match your needs. This includes matching your business's brand colors. Our coatings go beyond the standard garage floor look to fit your space perfectly.
Maintaining concrete surfaces can be a hassle, but decorative chip systems make it easier. Thanks to their random shapes, these chips naturally hide imperfections in the concrete, making minor wear and tear less noticeable. Moreover, the decorative chips help conceal dirt and debris, reducing the need for cleaning.
An appealing aspect of decorative chip systems is their ability to create an abstract, terrazzo-like appearance. This finish adds character and depth to concrete floors, making them stand out in any space. Whether it’s in a residential living room or a commercial showroom, the abstract terrazzo look is stylish and eye-catching.
Decorative chip systems aren’t just about aesthetics; they also prioritize safety. Many options come with slip-resistant and non-skid textures, providing an added layer of protection against accidents. This is especially beneficial in spaces that are prone to moisture or where slip hazards are a concern.
Concrete coatings with decorative chip systems often include UV-stable and chemical-resistant topcoats. These topcoats enhance the durability and longevity of your concrete surfaces. UV stability ensures your floors won’t fade or yellow over time, even in areas exposed to direct sunlight. Chemical resistance, on the other hand, protects against spills and stains, making these surfaces ideal for areas like kitchens, garages, or industrial spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions About Flake Floor Systems
Answers To
Frequently Asked Questions
What Exactly Is a Flake Floor System?+
In most cases, epoxy shouldn’t be applied directly over a painted basement floor. Paint creates a weak bonding layer, and epoxy relies on strong adhesion to bare, properly prepared concrete. For any coating system to perform correctly, the concrete typically needs to be mechanically prepared to remove paint, sealers and contaminants. Polyurea coatings are designed to bond more aggressively to properly prepared concrete and are better suited for below-grade spaces where moisture conditions can vary. This is one reason professional basement floor coatings often use polyurea-based systems rather than traditional epoxy.
Where Are Epoxy Floor Chips Typically Used in Commercial Settings?+
Because they are highly customizable and exceptionally durable, these coatings are ideal for demanding, high-traffic environments. Common applications include locker rooms, automotive service bays, industrial warehouses, retail showrooms, public restrooms, and office spaces.
Are Flake Floors Difficult to Clean?+
No. In fact, they are among the easiest surfaces to maintain. The clear topcoat creates a seamless, non-porous barrier that helps prevent moisture and chemical spills from penetrating the concrete. The textured surface hides daily dirt, and standard pH-neutral floor cleaners are all you need to keep the finish looking new.
