Running a dog kennel comes with its unique set of challenges, especially when it comes to maintaining the floors. Your guests might be furry, four-legged friends, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice the look and integrity of your business floor. Between urine, feces, claw marks, and the constant traffic of pets and people, your flooring needs to be tough, clean, and professional. This is where Epic Concrete Coatings, with our expertise in polyurea floor coatings, steps in to transform your kennel floors from drab to fab, without skipping a beat on functionality.

The Superiority of Polyurea Over Epoxy

When it comes to choosing the right material for your dog kennel’s floor, the battle often comes down to polyurea versus epoxy. Both are popular choices, but polyurea stands out for its superior qualities. Polyurea’s remarkable chemical composition makes it far more adaptable and resilient under extreme conditions, providing a robust defense against the wear and tear typical in kennel environments. Unlike epoxy, which may degrade over time due to chemical exposure or UV radiation, polyurea maintains its integrity, ensuring a longer lifespan and reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements. Moreover, its rapid curing time offers minimal downtime for businesses, a crucial advantage for operations that cannot afford lengthy interruptions. Here’s why polyurea is the champion in this flooring showdown: its unmatched durability, resistance to harsh chemicals, and flexibility in application make it the ideal choice for demanding environments like dog kennels, where longevity and ease of maintenance are paramount.

Durability

Polyurea is heralded for its incredible durability. It’s impact resistant, meaning it can handle the rough-and-tumble nature of a bustling dog kennel without showing signs of wear​​. Unlike epoxy, polyurea doesn’t just lay on the surface; it bonds deeply with the concrete for a lasting finish that resists peeling and cracking.

Stain Resistance

Spills and accidents are part of daily life in a kennel. Polyurea’s stain resistance means a simple wipe-down is often enough to tackle any mess, making your maintenance routine a breeze​​.

No Yellowing or Fading

The floors will look as good as new for years to come, thanks to polyurea’s UV stability. This means no yellowing or fading, even in sun-drenched areas​​.

Flexibility

Polyurea’s flexibility is a major advantage, allowing the coating to move with the concrete below. This adaptability helps prevent the chipping or peeling you might see with more rigid materials like epoxy​​.
