What is polyurethane?
Polyurethane is great option when it comes to choosing the right 
flooring for your commercial or industrial facility. Polyurethanes are 
polymers that belong to the carbamate chemical group. The 
carbamates combine with the polymers to form a sturdy floor 
covering. As a result, this chemical composition protects against 
bacteria, chemicals, and moisture.

    POLYURETHANE TYPES AND APPLICATION
All polyurethanes are strong and designed for specific applications. Whatever 
type of polyurethane is chosen, rest assured that your floor will be long-lasting  
   
and appealing.

Vinyl Ester — Polyester
Polyester and vinyl ester are terms used in the paint industry to describe a 
type of polyurethane that is resistant to acid spills. It is also a urethane that is 
resistant to chemicals (CRU). 
This makes it ideal for dealing with chemical spills like gas, oil, salt, grease, 
and most acids. Polyester is an excellent finish for containment and 
secondary containment areas.

Acrylic
Acrylic is another suitable polyurethane. It is water-based. Acrylic flooring 
has a high gloss finish and excellent colour retention. It is UV resistant, 
making it suitable for outdoor use. Furthermore, because acrylic does not 
contain oil, it will not yellow or fade over time.
 
Acrylic, as a low-VOC formula, emits less odour into the air when drying than 
standard polyurethane, making it an environmentally friendly and healthy 
choice.

Moisture Cured
Moisture-cured polyurethanes provide a high-performance finish that cures 
even when there is moisture present, cures quickly, and remains flexible. It 
can also withstand higher dry temperatures than epoxy. 
However, it's important to keep in mind that moisture-cured flooring can 
change colour over time and have a strong odour. Furthermore, it requires 
highly trained professionals wearing appropriate PPE.

Aliphatic
Aliphatic polyurethanes are commonly used in both interior and exterior 
applications. They are the hardest and most scratch-resistant of the urethane 
family, as well as UV resistant and long-lasting in colour. They make an 
attractive decorative topcoat for concrete.
Polyurethane resists scratching, chemicals, UV rays, and general wear and tear 
better than epoxy. Epoxy and polyurethane, on the other hand, can be 
combined to create a very strong flooring system. Polyurethane is strictly a 
topcoat; epoxy serves as a thickness underlayer or topcoat.
