What is Epoxy Self-Levelling?
Epoxy Self-Levelling (Epoxy SL) is a premium seamless industrial flooring system designed to create a smooth, level, durable, and aesthetically professional floor surface. It is applied in a thicker layer compared to normal epoxy coating, allowing the material to naturally flow and level itself across the concrete surface.
This system is widely used in industrial and commercial environments where hygiene, cleanliness, durability, and appearance are important.
Epoxy SL is not just paint — it is a complete flooring system engineered for performance, protection, and long-term reliability.

How is Epoxy Self-Levelling Applied?
A proper Epoxy SL system requires professional surface preparation and systematic application.
Typical Application Process:
Step 1 – Site Inspection
Assessment of:
- Concrete condition
- Moisture content
- Surface strength
- Existing defects
Step 2 – Surface Preparation
Grinding the concrete surface to:
- Remove weak layers
- Improve adhesion
- Open concrete pores
Step 3 – Repair Work
Repairing:
- Cracks
- Potholes
- Uneven surfaces
Step 4 – Primer Application
Applying epoxy primer to strengthen bonding between substrate and flooring system.
Step 5 – Self-Levelling Layer Application
The Epoxy SL material is poured and spread evenly to create a smooth and level surface.
Step 6 – De-Aeration
Spike rolling is carried out to remove trapped air bubbles and improve finish quality.
Step 7 – Curing & Handover
The floor is allowed to cure before operation and usage.
When Should You Choose Epoxy Self-Levelling?
Epoxy SL is recommended when:
Your Floor Has:
- Uneven concrete surface
- Dusting problems
- Poor appearance
- Minor surface defects
Your Operation Requires:
- Cleanliness
- Hygiene
- Smooth traffic movement

Why Proper System Selection Matters
One of the biggest mistakes in industrial flooring is selecting a system based on price only.
Different environments require different flooring systems.
Choosing the wrong flooring may lead to:
- Peeling
- Bubbling
- Cracking
- Premature failure
- High repair costs
