New health codes find ceramic tile grout a harbinger of bacteria and microorganisms in embalming rooms. As municipalities adopt more stringent health codes, ceramic tile still in good condition may not be good enough. Often health inspectors are requesting the ceramic tile be replaced with seamless epoxy coatings to assure clean room standards. Now you can coat right over that good ceramic tile to encapsulate it at a fraction of the cost of demolition.
Epoxy coatings with 100% solids can be applied right over your ceramic tile for good looks and healthful environments. Epoxy flooring is not only seamless but can be Class III Laboratory qualified. These mold and mildew resistant surfaces are easy to clean with hose and squeegee. Bleach resistant epoxy flooring can take strong cleaners and heavy abrasion.
Epoxy coatings have been used successfully in swimming pools, laundries, warehouses, garages, and various types of shops for decades. Now they are being used increasingly in embalming rooms, smooth or with fine skid resistant textured surfaces that are still easy to mop and squeegee clean.
Epoxy floors can be flooded, during washing and scrubbed back into service in minutes. Mold, bacteria, and contaminants can be rinsed off. The surfaces are impervious to penetration by liquid-born contaminants. Even diesel, gas, and oil will not penetrate them and can be washed or wiped up. Old technology floorings, including paint, ceramic tile, vinyl tile, and linoleum, are subject to such severe contamination and damage, if flood cleaning is used.
New designs for embalming room floors offer beautiful flood-proof epoxy coated flooring from wall to wall, often including coated vertical surfaces to help further contain liquids. The beauty of epoxy flooring can be enhanced and personalized by using colors. Color chips, glitter, decorative stains, and artwork and decals can be laminated into these attractive floors. Epoxy flooring is a solid choice when building or remodeling embalming room spaces.
Durall Industrial Flooring supplies kits of materials that are customized to owner specification and delivered directly to the job site. Kits include full directions and 24/7 help lines staffed by seasoned flooring experts, so professionals and amateurs alike can successfully install a quality floor.
