How to Build Heavy-Duty Forklift-Ready Industrial Flooring?

If your factory runs forklifts daily, you can’t afford to use a flooring system that only “looks good.”
You need a system that’s truly load-bearing, impact-resistant, and long-lasting.

Many owners try to save costs and end up with:

• Floor cracks

• Forklift tire burn marks

• Peeling coatings

• Structural concrete damage

These issues risk not only your floor — but also the safety of your workers and your warehouse operations.

Here’s our recommended heavy-duty flooring process:

1. Substrate Testing & Grinding – Determine base strength and prepare using industrial grinders

2. Crack Repairs & Joint Reinforcement – Fix expansion joints and reinforce impact zones

3. Epoxy Primer Coating – High-penetration primers for maximum adhesion

4. Heavy-Duty Mortar Screed Layer – Built for shock absorption and load resistance

5. Topcoat Finish Options – Glossy, matte, or anti-slip based on traffic & safety needs

✅ Done right, you’ll get:

• 10+ years of durability

• No dust, no peeling, no deformation

• Safer working zones

• Lower long-term maintenance costs
