There’s a good reason why concrete is used almost exclusively for floors in basements, garages, warehouse facilities and manufacturing and food processing plants; it’s one of the few materials durable enough to stand up to the heavy traffic, abrasion, chemicals, and moisture these surfaces are often subject to. However, that doesn’t mean concrete slabs are indestructible. Left untreated without a concrete coating, the porous materials that concrete is made of can succumb to extreme abuse, such as tire traffic, exposure to harsh chemicals and deicing salts, and frequent moisture contact.

That’s where a good protective coating comes into play, giving concrete that extra layer of protection it needs to endure constant wear and tear. In addition to its protective function, a coating can also dress up a drab surface, simplify maintenance and improve skid resistance.
