Once thought of as industrial flooring solutions, resinous floors have become desirable solutions for any space. Resinous flooring systems are liquid applied floors that are built in layers to address both aesthetics and function. They create a seamless, durable, and hygienic surface with many additional benefits. The layers, including a performance topcoat, enable each resinous flooring system to be custom in design and to serve the demands of the exact area they are being applied. For a truly seamless and hygienic environment, an integral cove base, and Dur-A-Wall system can be incorporated.
Designer Looks
Resinous flooring is available in a wide variety of design options. The floors can range from solid color to decorative aggregate blends. Colors can be combined to match branding, patterns and borders can be created through the use of multiple colors, and logos and decals can also be embedded into the floors.
Low Cost of Ownership
Resinous floors offer a lower cost of ownership and longer service life than many other flooring options. Performance topcoats enhance the durability with added properties such as abrasion and chemical resistance. Resinous floors can be designed for foot or vehicle traffic and everything in between.
Safety
Seamless flooring is a safer flooring option for facilities as it reduces the potential for tripping hazards. Slip resistance is also a key feature to resinous flooring. Through broadcast aggregate choices and textured additives, slip resistance can be increased to meet the safety and needs specified for most areas.
Easy Maintenance
Seamless floors are innately more hygienic than other flooring options as they eliminate the crevices and additional spaces that harbor moisture, bacteria, and germs. Resinous floors do not require stripping or waxing to maintain their “like-new appearance” — a simple to follow cleaning schedule is all it takes to keep these floors looking great.

Flooring Products
Epoxy
Exceptional durability, great looks, and outstanding value. The Dur-A-Flex family of commercial epoxy flooring systems offers long-lasting protective flooring, providing superior resistance to chemical spills, heavy equipment, and continuous traffic.
Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)
Cryl-A-Flex floors are ideal for facilities that need to return to service quickly. Offering excellent chemical resistance, superior abrasion resistance, and UV stability, MMA flooring systems are ideal in many markets — both indoors and outdoors.
Cementitious Urethane
Poly-Crete®, Dur-A-Flex’s cementitious urethane, is the most robust product family for resinous flooring systems. Composed of cement, water, aggregate, and different additives, it is designed for excellent adhesion and wear resistance. Poly-Crete is recommended for applications where wet processing, chemical contamination, and high temperature cleaning is performed.
Hybrid
Hybri-Flex® flooring systems were designed to address the needs of facilities that face moisture-related flooring failures but still want decorative options. Hybri-Flex systems offer the additional benefits of high moisture tolerance and a thicker, self-priming, self-leveling floor making it the ideal choice for installation on freshly placed concrete, rough existing floors, or where higher impact resistance is desired.

Dur-A-Flex’s Accelera flooring systems offer a unique combination of fast installation and high performance designed to meet the needs of today’s 24/7 operations.
