DTI specifies and installs industrial and commercial epoxy flooring systems for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, food processing plants, pharmaceutical facilities, distribution centers, and automotive facilities. As an experienced epoxy flooring contractor, we select each system based on your facility's actual operating conditions. We analyze your specific traffic levels, chemical exposure, substrate condition, and compliance requirements so the right flooring solution is locked in before any work is priced or performed.

Industrial Epoxy Flooring Systems
Commercial and industrial floors face very different operating conditions. DTI specifies epoxy floor coating systems around the facility rather than applying the same coating everywhere.
Engineered Coatings
Every industrial space demands a specific formulation. DTI designs custom flooring systems to meet mechanical, thermal, and regulatory demands.
Heavy Industrial100% solids epoxy coating engineered for high-traffic warehouses, manufacturing plants, and heavy forklift corridors. Superior impact and abrasion resistance.
Food & PharmaThermal shock resistant floors designed for steam cleaning and extreme temperature changes in food processing, breweries, and commercial kitchens.
Commercial & RetailMulti-layer vinyl flake or color quartz embedded in epoxy with polyaspartic topcoats. Provides attractive, slip-resistant textures for showrooms and restrooms.
Project Experience
Real project applications demonstrate how flooring systems are selected around traffic, chemical exposure, appearance, safety and operational requirements.

Automotive dealership service areas face heavy vehicle traffic, oil and fluid exposure, and the need for a clean, professional finish that holds up under daily use. DTI installed a broadcast epoxy system in the service bay with a chemical-resistant polyurethane topcoat and anti-slip aggregate in high-traffic zones. The floor handles daily vehicle movement and fluid spills while maintaining a finished appearance appropriate for a customer-facing facility.

High-traffic service areas at Travis AFB required flooring upgrades to withstand constant vehicle movement, fuel and chemical exposure, and round-the-clock operational use. DTI installed a broadcast epoxy system with a chemical-resistant topcoat within a tight installation window that minimized disruption to base operations.
Industries Served
Installation & Surface Preparation
How is concrete prepared for epoxy flooring? Industrial epoxy installation begins by evaluating the slab, moisture and contamination, then mechanically profiling the concrete with methods such as shot blasting or diamond grinding. Cracks, joints and damaged areas are addressed before primer, body coats, aggregate and the specified topcoat are installed.
Methodology
Epoxy bond strength is determined almost entirely by surface preparation. A properly prepared concrete surface has a profile equivalent to medium-grit sandpaper — open pores, no contamination, correct moisture content.
ASTM F2170 relative humidity and ASTM F1869 calcium chloride tests.
Shot blasting or diamond grinding to CSP 3–4 surface profile.
All active cracks filled, deteriorated joints addressed. Learn about our repair systems →
Penetrating epoxy primer applied to saturate the concrete surface.
Base coat, aggregate (if specified), and topcoat applied in sequence.
Foot traffic typically 24 hours, vehicle traffic 48–72 hours.
Moisture Testing Standards
Moisture mitigation specified as needed. Learn about our waterproofing services →
Uncompromising Execution
Most industrial floor failures aren't caused by bad epoxy—they are caused by poor substrate surface preparation and inexperienced application crews. At DTI, we solve floor failures before they happen through exact concrete profiling and rigorous quality engineering.
We perform shot blasting, crack routing, moisture vapor testing (MVT), and joint rebuilding prior to applying any resinous material.
Our polyaspartic and rapid-cure urethane formulas allow full operational return-to-service in as little as 12 to 24 hours.
Guaranteed adherence to FDA, USDA, HACCP, and OSHA non-slip safety requirements for auditing peace of mind.
Verified Client Feedback
"DTI resurfaced 35,000 sq ft of our food manufacturing plant floor over a holiday weekend. They met our strict FDA auditor requirements and delivered a flawless finish on time."
Plant Operations Director | Logistics Facility
"Finding an epoxy contractor that actually understands concrete repair was hard until we met DTI. They fixed deep joint degradation before installing our heavy industrial epoxy."
Facility Manager | Automotive Tech Center
"Outstanding commercial flooring team. Professional, fully equipped, and transparent with pricing. Highly recommended for commercial or industrial projects."
General Contractor | Commercial Engineering
Answers to Common Questions
An industrial epoxy flooring contractor is a specialized commercial firm responsible for preparing concrete substrates and applying multi-layer resinous coating systems. This process includes heavy-duty mechanical profiling (shot blasting or diamond grinding), concrete joint and crack remediation, and installing chemical-resistant epoxy, polyurethane, or urethane mortar systems designed to withstand heavy machinery, chemical spills, and regulatory safety inspections.
Not all epoxy flooring is the same. The right system depends on what the floor needs to do.
Most common commercial & industrial system
A base coat is applied, decorative flake or quartz aggregate is broadcast into the wet epoxy, and a clear polyurethane or polyaspartic topcoat seals the surface. The aggregate layer adds texture, slip resistance, and thickness.
Seamless, high-gloss surface
A high-build liquid epoxy that flows to a smooth, flat finish. Applied at thicknesses from 1/8" to 1/4" depending on specification. Produces a seamless, high-gloss surface with no aggregate texture.
Heaviest-duty system available
Mixed with graded sand or aggregate to create a thick, impact-resistant surface. Applied at 1/4" to 1/2" thickness. Handles the heaviest forklift loads, dropped equipment, and severe chemical exposure.
10–20 mils dry film thickness
A surface-applied epoxy coating providing basic protection and a clean finish for substrates in good condition that don't require a heavy system.
Static-control upgrade
Standard epoxy systems can be upgraded with a conductive primer and ESD topcoat for environments requiring static control. See our ESD Flooring page for full specifications.
Epoxy systems vary significantly in their chemical resistance. The base epoxy layer provides general resistance - the topcoat determines the system's actual chemical performance. DTI specifies topcoats by your facility's specific chemical inventory:
General chemical resistance, UV stable, good abrasion resistance. Standard specification for most commercial and industrial applications.
Fast cure (return to service in 4–6 hours), excellent UV resistance, high abrasion resistance. Used when schedule is critical or outdoor/UV exposure is a factor.
High-performance chemical resistance for environments with aggressive acids, solvents, or caustics. Standard specification for chemical processing and some food/beverage environments.
If you have a specific chemical exposure requirement, DTI can provide a chemical resistance chart for the proposed system before installation begins.
