Chemical Resistant Paints
Chemical resistant paints are specialised concrete floor paints designed to protect surfaces from aggressive substances like acids, solvents, fuels, and hydraulic fluids. These coatings create a durable barrier that shields floors and structural surfaces from chemical damage, making them ideal for industries exposed to regular spillage or contamination. Applications range from epoxy floor paint alternatives in harsh environments to tougher finishes for hangars, refineries, and printing plants. For more specific protection in garages, chemical resistant coatings provide an upgrade over traditional garage floor paints, ensuring higher chemical tolerance and safety.
They are widely used across pharmaceutical, manufacturing, aviation, laboratory, and food production sectors. Surfaces in these settings must meet hygiene and safety standards, withstand corrosive exposure, and remain easy to clean. In water treatment facilities, oil refineries, or automotive workshops, chemical resistant coatings prevent deterioration from oils and reactive chemicals. Available in over 4,400 colours, these paints also allow visual zoning or branding across industrial environments. For tailored advice on the best solution, contact the technical support team.
Chemical Resistant Paints FAQs
Can chemical resistant paints be used on vertical surfaces?
Yes, chemical resistant paints can be applied to both horizontal and vertical surfaces, including walls and equipment. When used on vertical surfaces, they help protect against splash-back from spills or cleaning chemicals. Proper surface preparation and the correct choice of product ensure strong adhesion and lasting performance. It’s important to select the correct formulation based on whether the surface is metal, concrete, or another substrate.
Do these paints have anti-slip properties?
Some chemical resistant paints can be enhanced with anti-slip additives. These create texture on the surface, improving grip in wet or oily conditions. This is especially useful in workshops, hangars, or food production areas where spills are frequent. Always check if the product supports non-slip integration and follow manufacturer instructions for adding grit or texture to ensure both chemical protection and safety underfoot.
What is the typical drying or curing time for chemical resistant coatings?
Drying and curing times vary depending on the product type, temperature, and humidity. Some fast-curing paints dry within a few hours, while more robust two-pack systems may take 24 to 72 hours to fully cure. It is important to allow full curing before subjecting the surface to chemical exposure to ensure maximum resistance and durability. Manufacturer data sheets should always be consulted before use.
Are chemical resistant paints safe to use in food processing areas?
Many chemical resistant paints are formulated to meet safety requirements for use in food and beverage production. These paints are resistant to acidic substances and cleaning agents commonly used in these environments. Always choose products certified for food-contact or hygienic use and verify that they meet local safety and hygiene regulations. Regular maintenance will also help preserve safe conditions and surface performance.
How long do chemical resistant coatings typically last?
When applied correctly, high-quality chemical resistant coatings can last several years, even in demanding industrial environments. Longevity depends on surface preparation, application method, exposure conditions, and maintenance. Areas with heavy traffic or frequent exposure to harsh chemicals may need reapplication sooner. Regular inspections and prompt repairs can extend the lifespan of the coating significantly, helping avoid costly downtime or damage.
