Increased compressive and wear strength

Enhanced slip resistance and traction

More economical than full mortar systems

Seamless, uniform, professional finish

A slurry epoxy system is a high-build, aggregate-reinforced coating designed to provide enhanced durability, thickness, and slip resistance compared to standard neat epoxy applications. This system is created by blending epoxy resin with graded sand or aggregate to form a thicker, trowel- or squeegee-applied mixture that is spread across the concrete surface. The result is a more robust and impact-resistant flooring system that bridges minor imperfections in the slab while creating a uniform, seamless finish. Slurry systems are often finished with a protective topcoat to lock in durability and chemical resistance.

Slurry epoxy systems are commonly used in commercial and light industrial environments where floors must withstand moderate to heavy traffic. Typical applications include warehouses, manufacturing spaces, mechanical rooms, commercial kitchens, locker rooms, and automotive facilities. Because the aggregate build increases overall system thickness, slurry floors offer improved resistance to abrasion, rolling loads, and impact compared to thinner coating systems. They are also well-suited for areas that require enhanced traction and durability without the full thickness of a mortar system.

One of the primary advantages of a slurry system is its ability to correct minor surface irregularities while building structural strength. The aggregate-filled epoxy helps level out small pits and imperfections, creating a smoother final surface. It also increases compressive strength and wear resistance, making it a strong middle-ground solution between neat coatings and heavy-duty epoxy mortar systems. When installed over properly prepared concrete with the correct Concrete Surface Profile (CSP), slurry systems form a strong mechanical bond that supports long-term performance.

Ultimately, a slurry epoxy system offers a balance of durability, functionality, and cost efficiency. It delivers greater strength and slip resistance than standard coatings while remaining more economical than full-depth mortar systems. When combined with proper surface preparation, moisture testing, and, if needed, vapor mitigation, a slurry system provides a resilient and long-lasting flooring solution built to perform in demanding commercial and industrial environments.
