The Benefits of Epoxy Flooring for Veterinary Clinics

As pet owners who visit veterinary clinic, you know how important it is that your facility stays clean, sanitary and welcoming. But we also know how much damage dogs and cats can do to your floors in the day-to-day business.

One easy solution is to use an epoxy floor coating in your clinic and waiting room.

Epoxy coating is applied directly to the concrete and offers the following benefits:

• Durability: Often used for industrial factory settings, epoxy-coated floors stand up much better to the constant traffic of paws and claws than traditional flooring options. Epoxy’s notable hardness means that even intense play won’t cause scratches or other damage to the floor.
• Sanitation: Epoxy floors are smooth and easy to clean. Meaning, they require less maintenance than their competitors. More importantly, an epoxy coating blocks mold, mildew or microbes from entering and growing in the porous concrete beneath.
• Good traction: The added slip-resistant features to epoxy coatings make it easier for dogs and cats to maneuver on. Your two-legged clients will also appreciate the extra traction.
• Attractiveness: While tough enough for industrial settings, epoxy coatings will not make your veterinary clinic look industrial or cold. You can customize your floors in any colour or pattern. This keeps your environment friendly and inviting.
