CPC Floor Coatings Blog

In the medical and pharmaceutical industries, there’s no cutting corners. Can you imagine a surgeon skipping sterilization before an operation? An X-ray technician neglecting to place a protective apron on a patient? Or a manufacturer deciding to mix a drug differently just because a key material ran out? The answer is an undeniable no. Precision is a must, and it’s built into every process.

So why isn’t it always the case when it comes to a medical research or pharmaceutical facility’s flooring?

Don't you hate it when you don't have all of the facts? What's even worse is when you ask a question to get the facts, and then you get a roundabout answer that doesn't really answer the question.

We hate that, too — which is why we always try to be direct with our customers at CPC Floor Coatings. We want you to not only have accurate information, but also complete information. That's why we're sharing four facts that are often withheld from customers on the hunt for floor coatings.

As a family-owned and operated company, CPC takes pride in providing our customers the best and most efficient floor coatings in the Southeast. Our hard work is shown through many happy customers over the years of our existence. That’s why we’re very excited to announce CPC has two managerial staff members that are fully ICRI (International Concrete Repair Institute) Certified for Moisture Testing!

Even if you’re an experienced facilities manager, chances are the world of industrial floor coatings is a little foreign to you. You may not know what to expect with the installation process, or you aren’t sure which coating will offer the features you need.

That’s why it’s important to find a professional floor coating contractor who’s willing to talk through all aspects of the process with you and will answer whatever questions you may have—before you hire them to work for you.

To help get you on the right track, here are some questions you can ask us or any other industrial floor coating company before deciding if they are the right fit for you:

Is your facility’s concrete floor in need of an upgrade? Perhaps you’re considering having an epoxy coating, a protective layer of urethane, or another specialty floor coating installed.

Very early in the process you’re going to need to calculate how much such a project is going to cost. However, there are a wide variety of factors that can go into determining the cost of an industrial flooring project before you can get a ballpark estimate.
