Operating an animal boarding kennel, dog daycare, or veterinary hospital in Rochester, Centralia, or Chehalis presents unique flooring challenges. Floors must withstand constant heavy foot traffic, sharp animal claws, aggressive urine and fecal acids, and twice-daily washdowns with potent disinfectant sanitizers.
Bare concrete or tile with grout joints is entirely unsuitable for animal care facilities. Concrete quickly absorbs animal urine, allowing bacteria and pungent ammonia odors to penetrate deep into the slab where no amount of surface mop cleaning can reach. Grout lines in tile floors chip and harbor parvovirus and fungal spores.
Our seamless veterinary and kennel floor coatings form an impermeable monolithic barrier that completely isolates concrete from liquids. Formulated with 100% solids industrial epoxy and antimicrobial additives, the surface actively prevents the proliferation of bacteria, ringworm, and viral pathogens.
Chemical resistance is paramount. Veterinary surgical suites and boarding kennels frequently clean with quaternary ammonium solutions, bleach, and enzymatic cleaners. Our high-performance polyaspartic topcoats resist staining, softening, and discoloration from both concentrated disinfectants and concentrated urine acids.
We carefully calibrate the floor texture for animal ergonomics. While smooth floors become treacherous ice rinks when wet, overly rough aggregate can abrade animal paw pads. We engineer an orange-peel fine-flake broadcast that provides secure slip resistance for veterinary technicians while remaining gentle on dogs' paws.
