Flake System

System Design

The Flake System is a high-performance, decorative, and durable flooring solution designed for residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. It combines the strength of epoxy or polyaspartic resins with decorative vinyl flake media to create a seamless, slip-resistant surface that is both attractive and long-lasting.

Maintenance

The long-term performance, appearance, and life expectancy of wear surface products are dependent on an adequate routine maintenance program designed specifically for the installed wear surface. Resinous floor coating systems are nonporous, causing dirt and contaminants to remain on the surface. Recommended maintenance programs consist of frequent and thorough cleaning utilizing a neutral PH cleaner. The frequency of washing will vary depending on floor usage type, traffic and age.

Benefits of a Flake System:

    1. Aesthetics: Flake and quartz aggregate provide a visually appealing and customizable appearance, available in various colors, sizes, and patterns, giving a unique and decorative finish to the floor.

    2. Durability: Both aggregates increase the durability and strength of the coating, resulting in a longer-lasting and more wear-resistant surface, suitable for high-traffic areas.

    3. Slip resistance: The textured surface created by flake and quartz aggregate improves slip resistance, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of accidents, especially in wet or oily conditions.

    4. Low maintenance: Floors with flake or quartz aggregate are easy to clean and maintain, as the textured surface hides dirt, stains, and minor imperfections.

    5. Seamless surface: Flake and quartz aggregate create a seamless surface that is resistant to the growth of bacteria and mold, making them suitable for hygiene-sensitive environments, such as healthcare or food processing facilities.

    6. UV resistance: These aggregates can improve the UV resistance of the coating, preventing discoloration and degradation over time.

Summary

A flake/chip concrete floor coating system is a popular and versatile flooring option that involves broadcasting decorative flakes or chips into a base coat, typically made of epoxy or polyurethane.

 

You would typically choose a flake/chip concrete floor coating system when you prioritize slip resistance, durability, and aesthetic appeal. This type of system is well-suited for commercial, industrial, and residential settings where safety and long-lasting performance are essential. Flake/chip coatings are especially beneficial in areas with high foot traffic or where a slip-resistant, easy-to-maintain, and visually appealing floor is required.
