High Slip Industries
When it comes to machinery shops, meat processing, chemical facilities and the like a no-slip surface is of high importance. Industries that see repeated spills or a high likelihood of liquids, oils or grease on the floor should look to slip-resistant industrial floor coatings that use a coating substance mixed with a coarse aggregate like sand or crushed minerals. Both epoxies and polyurethanes will work for this function, but polyurethanes are slightly easier to use.

Cleanup is also made easier since chemicals are prevented from penetrating the surface’s pores.
