How to Maintain and Clean Industrial Coated Floors - Etepox Solution Sdn Bhd

Maintaining and cleaning industrial coated floors—like epoxy, polyurethane, or polyaspartic coatings—is essential to ensure their longevity, safety, hygiene, and appearance. Here's a practical guide tailored for industrial environments such as factories, warehouses, and food processing areas:

Daily to Weekly Maintenance
1. Dust and Debris Removal

Method: Dry sweep with a microfiber dust mop or use an industrial auto scrubber with a soft pad.
Purpose: Prevents abrasive particles from scratching the coating.

2. Wet Mopping / Scrubbing

Frequency: Daily or several times weekly depending on foot and machine traffic.
Tools:
- Auto scrubber with soft or medium-bristle brushes
- Mop and bucket for smaller areas
Cleaning Solution:
- pH-neutral detergent (avoid acidic or highly alkaline cleaners)
- Warm water (not hot, especially for polyurethane coatings)

Monthly to Quarterly Deep Cleaning
1. Degreasing

Use: In oily or food-grade environments (e.g., F&B plants)
Cleaner: Industrial degreaser, properly diluted
Rinse thoroughly to avoid slipperiness or chemical damage

2. Stain Treatment

Spot clean any rust, chemical, or paint stains with appropriate cleaner (consult your coating manufacturer for compatibility)
Avoid abrasives like steel wool or harsh scouring pads

What to Avoid

Avoid This	Reason
Acidic or caustic chemicals	May degrade or dull the coating surface
Abrasive pads or scrubbers	Can scratch or wear down the topcoat
Steam cleaners (in some cases)	May damage certain coatings, especially joints
Letting water sit	Can lead to slips, microbial growth, and surface damage

 Periodic Maintenance / Inspection
1. Visual Inspection

Check for: Cracks, delamination, excessive wear, or chemical spills
Frequency: Monthly or after heavy-duty usage

2. Recoating or Topcoat Refresh

Schedule: Every 2–5 years, depending on usage
Signs You Need It:
- Dull or worn appearance
- Surface becomes hard to clean
- Exposed concrete visible

Specialty Areas – Additional Tips
• Food & Beverage Areas

Sanitize with food-safe disinfectants
Ensure all drainage is functional to avoid pooling

• Chemical Handling Zones

Use spill containment procedures
Clean chemical spills immediately per SDS guidelines

• High-Traffic Warehouses

Place rubber mats in high-impact areas
Use non-marking tires for forklifts to reduce scuffing
