Heavy Duty Floors

All floors have to stand up to abrasion to some degree, but none are more demanding than waste transfer tipping floors and heavy duty repair shops. These surfaces have been shown to have as much a 1" of surface loss per year using conventional high strength ready mix concrete mixes. In fact, high traffic surfaces without toppings have exhibited the need for major surface repairs after only the first year!

Even the addition of high quality dry shake surface hardeners does not inhibit surface thickness loss in high traffic areas for long because they eventually wear through leaving no protection against continued abrasion. Toppings alone provide the only means of producing long term protection to avoid significant surface replacement costs - never mind the loss in business productivity and down-time.

Duron's methods include both site and plant mixed specialty aggregate metallic and non-metallic materials for different environments to fit life cycle expectancies. Within any floor area, there are natural traffic flows which allow for the use of different materials and thickness' to meet each particular demand (eg: impact and abrasion). Our staff analyzes and designs the necessary floor protection systems for each floor area to suit both long term performance and the minimum necessary investment in your floor. Regardless of location, our design staff and field crews travel large distances regularly to install these specialized surfaces to produce consistent and durable results every time.

We would be pleased to assist you in any of your design and planning needs.
