Corrosion-Resistant Resin Flooring (For Harsh Chemical Areas)

Corrosion-Resistant Resin Flooring Solutions

Some floors don’t just face “chemical splashes.” They face real corrosion—strong acids, strong alkalis, solvents, hot cleaning, and sometimes long wet contact or pooling. In these areas, a normal coating can fail fast: blistering, soft spots, peeling, and concrete damage.
ZDSpoxy Corrosion-Resistant Resin Flooring is designed to build a dense, low-permeability barrier on concrete. The goal is simple: slow down chemical attack, protect the slab, and keep the surface strong and cleanable for daily operation.

Where this system is commonly used

This solution is built for harsh environments, such as:

  • Chemical plants and corrosion-prone workshops
  • Electroplating lines and pickling areas
  • Wastewater treatment and chemical storage zones
  • Battery and electronics chemical process areas
  • Pharmaceutical and industrial cleaning zones
  • Any area with frequent chemical spills, pooling, or long wet exposure

If your chemicals are unknown or changing, we can help you create a simple “chemical map” of your site before selection.

What problems this system solves

  • Protects concrete from aggressive chemical contact
  • Reduces blistering and delamination risk with proper barrier design
  • Creates a seamless, cleanable surface (less dirt trap, easier washdown)
  • Improves long-term durability in wet and harsh zones
  • Helps control maintenance cost by preventing repeated patch repairs

Corrosion resistance vs. chemical resistance (quick clarity)

  • Chemical resistant flooring is often for splashes + regular cleaning.
  • Corrosion resistant flooring is for harsher chemicals, higher risk areas, and longer contact time—sometimes including pooling or immersion-like conditions.

If you have strong acids/alkalis, frequent spills, or long wet exposure, use a corrosion-resistant design.

Thickness guide (simple selection)

Thickness is not just “more is better.” It should match the risk.

  • 2–3 mm — Light to medium corrosion risk
    (splashes, short contact time, controlled cleaning)
  • 3–6 mm — Heavy corrosion risk or long wet exposure
    (frequent spills, pooling, harsh chemicals, higher safety requirement)

If your slab is weak, uneven, or cracked, we may add leveling or mortar layers to stabilize the base.

Recommended product models (ZDSpoxy)

Below are practical product model sets used in corrosion-resistant flooring projects. The final choice depends on your chemical list, temperature, exposure type (splash vs pooling), and downtime window.

Option A — Dense epoxy barrier coating system (common choice)

Best for many harsh chemical areas with strong daily performance needs.

System part

What it does

Recommended ZDSpoxy model

Primer

Seals concrete, improves adhesion, reduces pinholes

ZDS1012AB — 2K Epoxy Primer

Corrosion-resistant topcoat

Dense barrier + strong mechanical protection

ZDS4220AB-90 — Industrial-Grade Epoxy Topcoat

When to choose this option

  • You want a strong, cleanable, industrial finish
  • Exposure is mostly splashes + regular washdown

You want a simpler build-up with reliable performance

Option B — Heavy-duty corrosion mortar + barrier top system (for higher risk)

Best for pooling zones, higher severity areas, or when you need more thickness and protection.

System part

What it does

Recommended ZDSpoxy model

Primer for mortar system

Strong base for thick build-ups

ZDS5502AB — PU Mortar Flooring System Primer

Corrosion-resistant mortar layer

Builds thickness + improves barrier stability

ZDS2802-PU — Chemical/Corrosion Resistant Mortar Layer

Protective top layer

Seals surface and improves cleanability

ZDS4220AB-90 — Industrial-Grade Epoxy Topcoat

When to choose this option

  • You have frequent spills, pooling, or long wet contact
  • You need 3–6 mm thickness for durability

The slab needs extra strengthening and protection

Installation overview (what to expect)

A corrosion-resistant floor succeeds when the basics are done right:

  • Chemical review (fast but critical)
    We confirm your chemical list (name, concentration, temperature) and exposure type (splashes vs pooling).

  • Surface preparation (the make-or-break step)
    Grinding or shot blasting removes weak layers and contaminants. Cracks and joints are repaired.

  • Primer application
    Seals the slab and supports strong bonding.

  • Build the barrier body layer
    Mortar/leveling layers (if needed) help reach the target thickness and reduce weak spots.

  • Top layer / sealer
    Creates the final corrosion-resistant surface that is easy to clean.

  • Curing and return-to-service plan
    We provide a simple plan based on temperature, ventilation, and your reopening time.

Quality checks (how you verify performance)

Before handover, focus on checks that prevent early failure:

  • Thickness check (matches the 2–3 mm or 3–6 mm design target)
  • Continuity check (no pinholes, no missed areas, stable film build)
  • Adhesion / bond strength (especially at repairs, edges, drains)
  • Visual inspection (bubbles, soft spots, rough zones, weak joints)
  • Trial cleaning / chemical wipe test (if your process requires it)

If your site has a strict QA process, we can align checks with your internal acceptance workflow.

Common failures (and how to avoid them)

Problem: Blistering or bubbling
Common causes: moisture vapor, poor surface prep, trapped air.
Avoid: moisture check, correct prep, proper primer and layer control.

Problem: Soft spots or staining
Common causes: wrong resin type for the chemical list, or under-built thickness.
Avoid: confirm chemicals first, then choose the right build-up.

Problem: Peeling at joints and edges
Common causes: weak concrete, contamination, wrong joint treatment.
Avoid: repair plan + joint detail + correct primer selection.

FAQs

Do I need 6 mm thickness for corrosion resistance?
Not always. Many areas work well at 2–3 mm if exposure is mostly splashes. Use 3–6 mm when you have pooling, harsh chemicals, or higher severity zones.
Yes. Many plants use a “zoning” approach—thicker systems in high-risk areas, standard systems elsewhere. It saves cost and improves reliability.
