Where is the surface located, what loads will it be subjected to – such as heavy machinery, high foot traffic or chemicals – and what finish is desired? The answers usually lead clearly to the optimal solution. Here is an overview of the main types of 2K floor coating and their ideal areas of application:

A solvent-free, self-levelling epoxy system such as EP Industry is specifically designed for demanding environments like warehouses. It withstands high mechanical loads, creates a seamless, high-gloss surface and is vapour-proof – making it one of the most robust solutions for industrial epoxy floor coating. It is suitable exclusively for rigid substrates and not for outdoor areas or cellars.

For medium-duty areas such as workshops, a rollable epoxy floor coating like EP Allrounder offers a vapour-permeable, breathable surface on various rigid substrates. It provides reliable protection without the effort of a fully self-levelling system and is therefore a practical choice for industrial resin floors in lighter commercial and trade areas.

Where durability and aesthetics are equally important – such as in shops, showrooms or commercial interiors – microcement offers a thin-layer, seamless mineral surface that can be applied to various substrates. The modern, flowing aesthetic makes this floor coating particularly popular when design and functionality are equally important.

For patios and other outdoor areas, a polyurethane coating such as PU Paint is suitable. It provides a waterproof, UV-resistant surface that reliably withstands weathering, temperature fluctuations and prolonged sun exposure—everywhere that traditional industrial coatings would not be appropriate.
All these variants of 2-component floor coating share a common advantage: when correctly selected and professionally applied, they offer long-term protection, reduce maintenance requirements and significantly extend the lifespan of the underlying surface.
