Industrial flooring plays a critical role in workplace safety. A well-designed flooring system can minimise hazards, improve traction, and enhance employee safety. Industrial floors need to be durable, slip-resistant, and able to withstand heavy machinery and constant foot traffic.
As a leading provider of industrial flooring solutions in the UK, Quest Flooring offers various flooring options that can help promote workplace safety, which we will discuss in this blog.
Slip-resistant industrial flooring
One of the primary safety concerns in industrial settings is slip and fall accidents. In fact, slip and fall accidents are one of the leading causes of workplace injuries. Industrial flooring must be slip-resistant to prevent such accidents from occurring.
Quest Flooring offers various slip-resistant flooring options, including resin flooring and polished concrete floors.
Resin flooring
Resin flooring is a popular choice for industrial settings because it is both durable and slip resistant.
It is made from a combination of high-strength epoxy resins and aggregates, making it highly resistant to wear and tear. Resin flooring is also available in a range of colours and finishes, allowing businesses to customise their floors to their specific needs.
Polished concrete floors
Polished concrete floors are another excellent option for industrial settings. They are highly durable and can withstand heavy machinery and constant foot traffic.
They are also slip-resistant, making them an ideal choice for areas prone to spills and moisture.
Polished concrete floors are easy to maintain and are available in a range of finishes and colours.
Seamless industrial flooring
Another essential safety factor to consider in industrial flooring is the presence of seams. Seams can be a tripping hazard and can also trap dirt and debris, making it difficult to maintain a clean and safe environment.
Our resin and polished concrete flooring options have no seams, making them easier to maintain and safer for employees.
Chemical resistant industrial flooring
Industrial settings often involve the use of hazardous chemicals, which can damage floors and create an unsafe environment for employees.
Chemical resistant flooring is designed to withstand exposure to chemicals and protect the underlying concrete from damage.
Here at Quest Flooring, we offer various chemical resistant flooring options, including resin flooring and polished concrete floors, which can withstand exposure to a range of chemicals.
