Epoxy Screed

Epoxy screed: a closer look

This product is a mixture of quartz sand and epoxy resin. When combined we usually apply it as a 6mm thick layer and add a finishing coating as well as an anti-slip covering on top.

What is worth noting, especially by commercial pools owners wanting to revamp the look of their facilities, is that epoxy screed is resistant to chemicals and mould. This feature makes it an ideal material for areas exposed to long lasting humidity. Being easy to maintain (you can clean it with minimum amount of chemicals, and in some cases get rid of detergents at all) with a range of durable, attractive colours to choose from (some call it ‘an excellent colour retention’) makes it a dream to work with as well.

In addition it is non-toxic, and considered a sustainable as well as an environmentally friendly flooring solution; minimal requirement for cleansing agents for cleaning areas covered with epoxy screed adds to green credentials of this material. It seems like a smart choice: a smooth surface that is hygienic and pretty good looking, with an option of applying your business’ colours on the floor too.

Fast application and quick curing time is another advantage of epoxy screed. This means you can cover large areas at a decent pace and quickly see how well the new surface works with your pool.

As a bonus, shiny finish on the epoxy screed floor can increase the reflectivity of light in the room, adding to the brightness of the space.
