Does anyone on here sell / know where i can get some pain for our warehouse floor. The warehouse size is approx 3300 square meters, and we would probably want to do two coats.

Must be heavy duty

Cheers

We use several suppliers for 2 part epoxies, supplied and/or applied.

Where is the warehouse and what is the function and type of traffic (hard/pneumatic wheel forklifts or pallet trucks, foot traffic etc) and how long is the required service life?

thanks for quick response. Will check those two companies out.

The warehouse is in leicester. Ideally it needs to last 5 years, as we dont want to have to paint the floor again before we get our new warehouse built. Takes a lot of time taking all our stock out to do it.

We use forklifts, pallet trucks inside. The paint we used last time, hasnt lasted long and now everything gets really dirty. Cant remember what we used though.

5 years in an environment like that is probably expecting a bit much from a coating without any maintenance. You normally need to top up and keep on top of it in heavily tracked areas.

I would recommend sikafloor 261 from sika, fosroc FC140, resin surfaces resucoat HB (most economical solution but still very good).

You need to make sure the slab temperature is at a decent level (above 5C) when you put it down otherwise it won't cure so be careful this time of year.

Should you require, we can quote you for supply as we get good discounts.

yeh had a look at watco. They have a nice website, but seem to be the most expensive so far!
