Economical, High-Performance Epoxy
EPO-Guard High Solids Epoxy Flooring
Not all epoxies are created equal, and you want to be sure you choose the right one for your application.
The term “epoxy” is often used to describe all types of resinous flooring, but it is actually a separate category with it’s own subsets, including Novolac epoxy and elastomeric epoxies. Epoxy flooring is typically a value-driven solution, applied thinner than other resins, but with EPO-Guard™, you get more bang for your buck.
EPO-Guard was developed to provide a higher performing product to the marketplace and is an economical, chemical resistant coating. EPO-Guard also has improved durability and UV resistance over other commercial grade epoxies on the market. It provides a seamless, low-maintenance solution for a variety of environments, but be aware that any epoxy will require a longer cure time than an acrylic or urethane cement system.
Installers appreciate that EPO-Guard is user-friendly, especially on larger installations, and fulfills their needs when the project calls for a true epoxy solution. When needed, alternate topcoats are available within our ISO-Guard line.
Res-Tek has designed EPO-Guard for use in a variety of commercial and industrial applications. There are many color options and several systems to choose from to fit your facility’s environment and your budget.
Industry Applications:
Manufacturing facilities, educational institutions, healthcare, retail, automotive shops and dealerships, restrooms, break rooms, locker rooms, aircraft hangars, large industrial areas and more.
