Operating history
In Short
An epoxy floor is a two-part resin system bonded to a concrete slab to give a hard, sealed, easy-to-clean surface. Whether it lasts depends mostly on the slab underneath. IBS mechanically prepares and moisture tests the concrete, repairs it, then lays the coating or screed and the line marking with its own teams, across India.
Poor slab preparation is the most common cause of epoxy floor failure. The coating is rolled onto a slab that is dusty, damp or still carrying the laitance from when it was poured, and within months it lifts in sheets or wears through in the aisles. A more expensive topcoat does not prevent that. Impulse Branding Solutions treats the slab as the first part of the floor: it is ground or otherwise mechanically prepared, moisture tested, and repaired at cracks and joints before any resin is mixed. The system is then chosen against the traffic, chemicals and cleaning the floor will actually face, priced against your budget, and applied within the manufacturer’s stated conditions. Aisle lines and safety markings go down in the same package.
What We Make
What epoxy and resin floors does IBS lay?
India's industrial flooring market reached US$ 375.4 Million in 2025 and is forecast to reach US$ 843.0 Million by 2034, a compound annual growth rate of 9.12% (IMARC Group, 2026). Epoxy is one of the resin families that market runs on, alongside polyurethane and others. IBS lays four kinds of resin floor work, each chosen against what the floor has to carry and how it will be cleaned.
General Contracting · Type 01
Epoxy Floor Coatings
A coating is the lightest resin floor: primer and one or more coats of epoxy rolled onto a prepared slab. It seals the concrete against dust, makes spills easy to clean, and gives the floor a single colour. It suits areas with light to moderate foot and trolley traffic.
- Dust-proofing and sealing: stops a concrete floor shedding dust onto stock and equipment
- Colour and gloss: a single colour from the manufacturer’s range, gloss or matt
- Anti-skid finish: aggregate broadcast into the coat where the floor gets wet
- Typical areas: stores, light assembly, plant rooms, back-of-house corridors
General Contracting · Type 02
Self-Levelling and Heavy-Duty Epoxy
Where forklifts, pallet trucks and dropped loads are part of the day, a thin coat wears through. Self-levelling epoxy is poured and spread to a thicker, flat, continuous layer, with the slab’s movement joints carried through it. Heavy-duty grades are built up further for impact and abrasion. Anti-static grades are available where the floor must carry static charge away from electronics.
- Self-levelling epoxy: a flat, continuous surface for production floors, clean areas and showrooms
- Heavy-duty grades: for forklift routes, loading areas and impact-prone zones
- Anti-static grades: for electronics assembly, server rooms and similar areas where the specification calls for them
- Coving at walls: resin carried up the wall base where the area is washed down
General Contracting · Type 03
PU Floor Coatings
Polyurethane systems are the other main resin family. They are more flexible than epoxy, and aliphatic PU topcoats hold their colour in sunlight where epoxy yellows. PU systems are often specified for food-safe and healthcare environments, and floors that see hot water, steam cleaning and thermal shock usually call for a PU-cement screed rather than a thin coating. The choice is made against the duty, not the price alone.
- Food and beverage areas: PU systems for food-safe environments
- Healthcare areas: PU coatings where the hospital’s specification calls for them
- Daylight-exposed floors: aliphatic PU topcoats, where epoxy would yellow over time
- Decks and terraces: coating systems applied to falls and detailed at edges
General Contracting · Type 04
Line Marking and Safety Zones
A warehouse or car park floor is also a traffic plan. IBS lays aisle lines, walkways and hatched zones in resin as part of the floor package, so the markings bond to the same prepared surface and are not left to a second contractor after handover.
- Aisle and lane lines: set out to the racking and traffic layout you approve
- Pedestrian walkways and crossings: hatched and coloured so people and forklifts stay apart
- Hazard and keep-clear zones: around doors, fire equipment, electrical panels and loading bays
- Bay numbering and parking markings: for car parks and basements
Specification
How is an epoxy floor prepared, specified and checked?
The slab, the system and the application conditions decide whether an epoxy floor lasts. IBS treats all three as part of the job, and records what was applied where.
Slab assessment and preparation
- Moisture testing: the concrete is tested before any coating, because moisture rising through the slab breaks the bond
- Mechanical preparation: grinding or other mechanical preparation removes laitance and opens the surface for the primer
- Repairs: cracks, joints and damaged areas made good before the floor is laid
- New slabs: coated only once the slab has cured enough to pass the moisture test
System options
- Chosen against the duty: coating, self-levelling, heavy-duty, anti-static or PU, matched to traffic, chemicals and cleaning
- Priced side by side: options offered against your budget; you or your consultant decide
- Manufacturer’s full system: primer, body coats and topcoat applied as the manufacturer states, not a shortened version
- No substitutions: nothing changed from the approved system without written approval
Application and records
- Sample area: a sample approved before full application where colour or texture matters
- Conditions checked: application kept within the manufacturer’s temperature and humidity limits
- Cure times respected: recoat and traffic times observed rather than compressed to finish early
- Handover record: system, colour and area recorded and issued at handover

Share the site, the scope and the date you need it working. We quote against a BOQ with every component itemised, and the first site visit carries no charge.
How We Deliver
From brief to handover.
An epoxy floor inside a fit-out follows the fit-out’s own programme, and a standalone floor is programmed at quotation against its area, system and cure times. The sequence below is the same either way.
Slab survey
IBS inspects the concrete, records cracks, joints and damage, and tests moisture. On an operating site, the survey also records how the floor is used, so the system matches the traffic.
Options and BOQ
System options are priced against your budget and the duty. The chosen system, colour, markings and area are fixed in the BOQ, along with the zones and sequence if the site stays in use.
Mechanical preparation
The slab is ground or otherwise mechanically prepared to remove laitance and contamination, then vacuumed clean.
Repairs and priming
Cracks, joints and damaged areas are made good, and the primer is applied to the prepared concrete within the manufacturer’s conditions.
Coating or screed application
Body coats, self-levelling layers or heavy-duty build-ups are applied as the system states, with recoat times observed between layers.
Line marking
Aisle lines, walkways, hatched zones and bay markings are set out to the approved layout and applied once the floor below is ready.
Cure, inspection and handover
The floor is protected while it cures to the manufacturer’s traffic time, inspected, snagged and handed over with a record of the system, colour and area.
Why Buyers Choose IBS
Built in-house. Owned outright.
Epoxy flooring is often bought on rate from a specialist applicator who arrives, coats and leaves. IBS lays floors as part of its own site teams. These are the differences that make.
01
The slab is part of the job
IBS prepares, tests and repairs the concrete before any coating goes down. On an IBS fit-out, the civil team that repairs the slab and the crew that coats it work under the same project lead.
02
Options you choose, not a fixed spec
IBS offers coating, self-levelling, heavy-duty, anti-static and PU options priced against your budget and the duty the floor faces. You or your consultant decide, and the choice is recorded in the BOQ.
03
One package, floor to markings
Preparation, primer, coating and line marking are one scope from one team. There is no gap between the flooring contractor and the marking contractor for defects to fall into.
04
Phased for running sites
Warehouses, kitchens and car parks rarely stop for a floor. IBS lays them zone by zone, with cure times planned into the handover of each zone so operations can move back in on a known date.
05
In-house crews across India
The people grinding, coating and marking the floor work for IBS. Crews mobilise from Mumbai to sites across India, with the same preparation and testing routine on every one.
Epoxy or PU: which resin floor fits?
Both are resin floors bonded to prepared concrete. They differ in what they are built to carry and where they hold up well. This is a general comparison; the right choice for your floor comes from its duty and cleaning regime.
| Epoxy (coating or self-levelling) | PU coating | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical areas | Stores, production floors, forklift routes, plant rooms, showrooms | Food and healthcare areas, daylight-exposed floors; PU-cement screeds where floors take hot wash-down |
| Main strength | Hard and resistant to wear, with heavy-duty grades for impact | More flexible; aliphatic PU topcoats hold their colour in sunlight |
| Watch-out | Yellows in direct sunlight; thin coatings wear through under heavy wheeled traffic | Chosen for its duty, so the system must match the environment and cleaning |
| Slip resistance | Anti-skid aggregate added where the floor gets wet | Textured finishes available for wet areas |
| Build-up | Thin rolled coats, or poured and built up for heavy duty | Rolled or spread as a coating system |
Sectors We Serve
Where this work lands.
The same resin behaves very differently under a forklift, a hot wash-down or a hospital trolley. These are the sectors where IBS lays resin floors and what each asks of them.
Factories and Manufacturing Plants
Production floors face impact, abrasion, oils and sometimes chemicals. Heavy-duty and anti-static grades are matched to the process the floor supports.
Car Parks and Basements
Car parks need anti-skid finishes on ramps and wet areas, lane lines, bay numbering and keep-clear zones, laid in phases so parking stays open.
Commercial Kitchens and Food Processing
Floors are wet, hot and washed daily. Floors that take hot water and steam cleaning usually call for a PU-cement screed, with resin coving at wall bases, chosen against the cleaning regime.
Hospitals and Laboratories
Service areas, laboratories and plant rooms in hospitals often take resin floors, while clinical areas such as wards commonly use sheet vinyl with coved skirting. IBS offers both through its healthcare fit-out work.
See healthcare projects
Showrooms and Service Centres
Vehicle showrooms and workshops combine a presentation floor with workshop traffic. Self-levelling epoxy gives a clean finish in the showroom and heavier grades in the service bays.
See retail projectsCommercials
How is an epoxy floor scoped and priced?
Epoxy flooring is quoted from a slab survey, a chosen system and a measured area. IBS does not publish a per-square-foot rate, because the rate alone hides the part that decides the outcome: how much preparation and repair the slab needs.
What a quotation covers3 clauses
What an epoxy flooring quotation covers
Slab survey and moisture testing, mechanical preparation, crack and joint repair, primer and the chosen coating or screed system, line marking, protection during cure, snagging, and a handover record of the system and colour applied in each area.
What moves the number
The condition of the slab and how much repair it needs, the system and build-up chosen, the area and the number of zones, line-marking quantities, coving, and whether the site stays in use while the floor is laid.
What sits outside the scope
Structural repair of the slab beyond surface making-good, treatment of rising damp at source, and any licences or permissions the site needs, which the owner or occupier obtains.
| Discipline | Term |
|---|---|
| Epoxy and PU floor systems | typically twelve months from application, subject to the specified traffic and cleaning regime |
| Floor materials | manufacturer warranty passed through on the specified system |
No charge, no obligation
Request a Site Survey Slab survey
A slab survey is carried out before quotation wherever the site can be accessed. A price worked out from an area figure alone cannot allow for the slab’s condition, and that is where many epoxy floor variations and failures begin.
Questions
Everything procurement heads, project managers, and admin teams ask before commissioning
These are the questions facility heads, plant managers and procurement teams most often ask before appointing an epoxy flooring contractor.
Cost & Billing
How is epoxy flooring priced for a 1,000 sq ft floor?
It depends on the system and the slab. A thin coating and a heavy-duty screed differ a great deal, and a damaged slab needs more preparation than a sound one. IBS surveys the slab first and quotes an itemised BOQ, rather than a per-square-foot rate that leaves preparation undefined.
Timelines
How long before an epoxy floor can take traffic?
Each system has cure times stated by its manufacturer for foot traffic, light wheeled traffic and full use, and they vary with temperature. IBS plans those times into the programme and protects the floor until it is ready, rather than opening it early.
Warranty & Service
What warranty does IBS give on epoxy flooring?
Epoxy and PU floor systems carry a warranty of typically twelve months from application, subject to the traffic and cleaning regime the floor was specified for. Manufacturer warranty on the materials is passed through separately.
Comparisons
What is the difference between epoxy and PU flooring?
Both are resin floors bonded to concrete. Epoxy is harder and very resistant to wear. PU is more flexible and holds its colour better in sunlight, and PU systems are often chosen for food-safe and healthcare environments. The choice is made against the traffic, temperatures, chemicals and cleaning the floor faces.
Technical
What is epoxy flooring?
Epoxy flooring is a two-part resin, a base and a hardener, applied over a prepared concrete slab. The two parts react to form a hard, sealed surface bonded to the concrete. It is used where floors need to resist wear, stay dust-free and be easy to clean, such as warehouses, factories, car parks and plant rooms.
What does an epoxy flooring contractor do?
An epoxy flooring contractor surveys and moisture tests the slab, prepares it mechanically, repairs cracks and joints, applies the primer and the chosen coating or screed system, lays line markings and hands over the floor once cured. IBS does all of this with its own crews.
Is epoxy flooring waterproof?
A cured epoxy floor resists water on its surface, which is why it suits wash-down areas. It is not a waterproofing system for the slab below. Moisture rising up through the concrete can push the coating off, which is why IBS moisture tests the slab before laying any resin.
What are the disadvantages of epoxy flooring?
Epoxy can be slippery when wet unless an anti-skid finish is added. It tends to yellow in direct sunlight. It needs a properly prepared, dry slab and time to cure before traffic. Thin coatings wear through under heavy wheeled traffic, so the system has to match the duty.
What is better than epoxy for floors?
It depends on the floor. PU coatings suit food-safe and healthcare environments and daylight-exposed floors. Concrete hardeners and sealers suit some warehouse slabs. Clinical areas in hospitals often use sheet vinyl with coved skirting. IBS offers these options and prices them side by side.
How thick is an epoxy floor?
Thickness follows the duty. A coating for light traffic is a thin, rolled system. Self-levelling and heavy-duty floors are poured or built up to a thicker layer for wheeled traffic and impact. The build-up for your floor is set in the system IBS proposes and recorded in the BOQ.
Why does the slab need moisture testing?
Moisture rising through the slab breaks the bond between the coating and the concrete, and the floor delaminates in sheets. Changing the topcoat does not prevent it. The moisture has to be measured first, then dealt with or primed for with a moisture-tolerant system. Redoing a failed floor means removing the old coating first.
Can epoxy be laid on a new concrete slab?
Yes, once the slab has cured enough to pass the moisture test. Coating a slab that is still releasing moisture is one of the most common causes of failure. IBS tests the slab and programmes the floor for when it is ready, rather than to a date set before the concrete was poured.
Can IBS lay an epoxy floor in a running warehouse or factory?
Yes. IBS divides the floor into zones, agrees the sequence with your operations team, and hands each zone back once it has cured. Stock and racking are worked around, and noisy preparation can be scheduled outside operating hours where you need it.
Do you do line marking on epoxy floors?
Yes. Aisle lines, pedestrian walkways, hatched crossings, keep-clear zones around doors, panels and fire equipment, and bay numbering are laid as part of the same floor package, set out to the layout you approve.
Is epoxy suitable for car parks?
Yes, with the right finish. Ramps and wet areas need an anti-skid surface, and car parks need lane lines, bay numbers and keep-clear markings. Where the deck is exposed to sunlight, a PU topcoat is often chosen because epoxy yellows in daylight.
Is epoxy suitable for commercial kitchens?
Kitchens are wet, hot and washed daily, so a thin epoxy coating is rarely the right choice. Floors that take hot water and steam cleaning usually call for a PU-cement screed with anti-skid texture and resin coving at the wall base. The system is chosen against your cleaning regime and budget.
What are anti-static epoxy floors used for?
Anti-static floors carry static charge away safely. They are used in electronics assembly, server rooms and other areas where a static discharge could damage equipment. IBS lays anti-static grades where your specification calls for them.
Which epoxy brands does IBS use?
IBS applies the system your specification names. Where it allows a choice, IBS offers options priced against your budget, and you or your consultant decide. The chosen manufacturer’s full system is applied as stated, and nothing is substituted without written approval.
Can IBS take epoxy flooring as a standalone job?
Yes. IBS lays epoxy floors on their own for warehouses, factories and car parks, or as part of a full IBS fit-out. On a fit-out, the civil team that repairs the slab and the crew that coats it work under the same project lead.
How do I get a quote for epoxy flooring?
Share the area, the use of the floor, the slab’s age and condition, the city and whether the site stays in use through the enquiry form on this page, on WhatsApp or by email. IBS will arrange a slab survey and send an itemised quotation.
