How to keep them that way.

Shiny floors make an instant statement that “We Care”. Shiny floors are more inviting and visually appealing. And because they are shiny, whether your floors are concrete, terrazzo, vinyl, linoleum, VCT, or LVT, or natural stone, people (employees and customers) associate it with cleanliness. Are your floors getting dull, dingy or yellowing? There are many possible reasons you don’t have shiny floors anymore, but the biggest two reasons are abrasion and dulling due to yellowing of acrylic wax or non-UV stable coatings.

What causes a floor to lose its shine?

Abrasion in any form, when you are talking about flooring; be it commercial, industrial or residential, is wear. Everything and everyone that comes in contact with you floors cause abrasion over time. Regardless of the type or the money spent on your shiny floors, they are wearing. If not properly treated your shiny floors will eventually wear out.

Yellowing floors can be caused by a coating being non-UV stable, or not being chemical resistant. Some of the most basic things can cause yellowing, sunlight, cleaning chemicals, tracked in an outdoor residue. This can happen to concrete, terrazzo, VCT, Vinyl, LVT, and Linoleum.

How do I protect my shiny floors?

EPIC™ and IMPACT™ from Ultra Durable Technologies, Inc. (UDT) make and keep floors shiny.

The effects of normal wear can be greatly reduced and yellowing floors can be eliminated by stripping your old floors and then coating them with UDT EPIC High-performance floor finish on vinyl, linoleum, VCT, or LVT and IMPACT Concrete Sealer on concrete, terrazzo, epoxy terrazzo and natural stone. These products are water-based urethane, non-yellowing, UV stable, chemical and sanitizer resistant. UDT EPIC and IMPACT will last up to 10 times longer before they need recoating. Ongoing cleaning becomes very simple, regular sweeping and damp mopping with a pH neutral cleaner or ozonated water is all that is required to keep your floors shiny and looking great.

What else can I do?

One of the biggest flooring maintenance issues is scratches. The ones caused by equipment and furniture such as carts, bookcases, chairs, and tables that are constantly moved back and forth across shiny floors. To help keep those shiny floors looking great use these industry leading floor protectors.
