Outdoor Epoxy Flooring

Epoxy is a type of resin that is often used for coating floors. It is known for its durability and resistance to stains and scratches. However, many people don't realise that epoxy is also an excellent choice for outdoor applications. 

Thanks to its weather-resistant properties, epoxy can withstand the elements without peeling or fading. Additionally, it is non-slip and easy to clean, making it ideal for outdoor areas that experience high foot traffic. Whether you're looking to coat your patio or protect your deck, epoxy is an ideal choice.

The answer to this question depends on several factors, including the type of epoxy used and the conditions it is exposed to. In general, however, epoxy that is used outdoors can last for several years without degrading. And, with proper care and maintenance, the epoxy can last even longer.

When epoxy is exposed to sunlight, the ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes a chemical reaction that breaks down the polymer chains. This process, called photo-degradation, reduces the strength and stability of the epoxy. Over time, exposure to sunlight can cause cracks in the material, and it can become brittle and crumble. To extend the lifespan of epoxy, it is important to protect it from direct sunlight. We apply a UV-resistant coating on all our outdoor epoxy flooring installations. With proper care, epoxy can retain its strength and stability for many years.

There are a few options for resurfacing when it comes to concrete. One popular method is epoxy finishes. When applied outdoors, epoxy finishes can help to protect concrete from the elements and extend its lifespan. In addition, epoxy can be tinted or pigmented to create various effects. As a result, it is an increasingly popular choice for those looking to improve the appearance of their outdoor concrete surfaces.
