What is Acrylic Resin Flooring?

Also known as polymethyl methacrylate, or PMMA, acrylic resin flooring is a high-performance epoxy resin floor system designed for demanding environments. It is a thermoplastic material, meaning it can be adapted, repaired or upgraded with ease over time. 

Unlike traditional epoxy systems, acrylic resin floors cure extremely quickly – often within hours rather than days. This makes them particularly suitable for spaces where downtime must be kept to an absolute minimum. Once installed, the resin forms a seamless, durable surface that bonds securely to the underlying concrete substrate, improving both performance and longevity.

The Benefits of Acrylic Floors

Acrylic floors are chosen not just for their strength, but for the practical advantages they offer businesses day to day. Key benefits include:

  • Rapid curing times, allowing installation to be completed over a weekend in many cases
  • Exceptional durability, designed to withstand heavy traffic, impacts and machinery
  • Hygienic, seamless finishes that are easy to clean and maintain
  • Highly customisable finishes, including colour choices and line markings

Together with its chemical, slip, and static resistance, these benefits make a reliable, long-term solution for facilities that cannot afford to compromise.

Anti-Slip and Anti-Static Properties

Because of its versatility, acrylic resin flooring can be tailored to meet specific operational requirements, including chemical resistance, slip resistance, electrical insulation, and anti-static performance.

Anti-Slip Resin Flooring

Anti-slip resin floors are designed to improve safety in environments where there is a higher risk of slips, trips or falls. By incorporating specialist aggregates into the resin system, we can create a textured finish that enhances grip underfoot without compromising durability or ease of cleaning.

Anti-Static Resin Flooring

Anti-static resin flooring is designed to control the build-up and discharge of static electricity, which can be a critical requirement in certain operational environments. These specialist resin floors help protect sensitive equipment, reduce the risk of static-related damage, and support safe working conditions.

Tailored to Your Environment

Whether you require enhanced slip resistance, anti-static performance, or a combination of both, our team will assess your space and recommend the most suitable acrylic resin flooring system. Every solution is tailored to your operational needs, ensuring safety, compliance and long-term performance.

Where Acrylic Flooring is Best Suited

Thanks to its adaptability and fast installation, acrylic resin flooring is particularly well-suited to a wide range of commercial and industrial spaces, including:

  • Warehouses and logistics facilities: It offers excellent impact resistance against high traffic from forklifts, pallet trucks, and heavy equipment.
  • Factories and production environments: The durability and chemical resistance make it ideal for manufacturing settings, where performance and cleanliness are critical.
  • Industrial garages and workshops: It’s designed to withstand vehicle traffic, oils and mechanical wear.
  • Laboratories, clinics and healthcare facilities: The smooth, hygienic surface supports strict cleaning regimes and helps maintain high standards of cleanliness.
  • Specialist environments with unique requirements: They’re highly customisable and can be engineered to meet specific thermal, electrical or safety demands.

How We Install Acrylic Resin

Every installation is carefully planned and professionally delivered using advanced materials and proven techniques. Before installation, the concrete substrate is thoroughly assessed and prepared. Depending on its condition, this may involve:

  • Shot Blasting: A controlled abrasive process used to remove contaminants and create an ideal surface profile.
  • Diamond Grinding: A precision method used to level uneven surfaces and achieve a smooth, consistent base.

Once prepared, the acrylic resin system is installed efficiently, with rapid curing allowing the floor to be ready for use far sooner than many alternative flooring systems.

How Much Does Acrylic Resin Flooring Cost?

The cost of an acrylic resin floor is typically higher than standard epoxy systems, largely due to its superior performance and fast-curing properties. Pricing will depend on several factors, including:

  • The size of the area
  • The condition of the existing concrete
  • The level of surface preparation required
  • Any specialist performance features needed
