Interior duty
Seamless, cleanable floors for warehouses, production areas, plant rooms and commercial back-of-house spaces.

Epoxy Flooring Singapore
Epoxy flooring in Singapore, specified from the duty—not the colour.
Rayson manufactures epoxy floor systems in Singapore. Tell us the traffic, slab condition and shutdown window; we will match the primer, epoxy build and finish to the conditions your floor will actually face.

Start with suitability
Epoxy is excellent indoors. It is not the answer everywhere.
The useful decision is not “epoxy or not?” It is whether the full system fits the real environment before work begins.
Conditions that change the build
Damp slabs, existing coatings, joints, local cracking and narrow shutdown windows need a closer technical review.
- Substrate condition
- Preparation route
- Programme sequence
When epoxy alone is not enough
Direct UV, hot wash-down, steam, thermal cycling or active movement can call for a PU, PU-cement or repair route.
- UV exposure
- Heat and chemistry
- Moving cracks
Choose by duty
Three practical epoxy formats. One clearer starting point.
Select the operating reality. The guidance, product route and enquiry context follow it.
01 / SELF-LEVELLING EPOXY
A seamless industrial surface for the traffic you actually run.
For production floors, warehouse aisles and clean environments where a smooth, level wearing surface is required.
Industrial trafficSeamless buildLevelShield SL120
Typical route PrimeBond E20 → LevelShield SL120

02 / ROLLER-APPLIED EPOXY
Practical protection where a full high-build floor is not required.
For plant rooms, service corridors and lighter-duty operational areas where cleanability and sensible maintenance matter.
Light to medium dutyCleanable filmFloorGuard R50
Typical route Prepared substrate → FloorGuard R50

03 / WATER-BASED EPOXY
Lower odour for spaces that have to stay operational.
For schools, offices and retail settings where programme and occupancy shape the coating decision as much as the surface does.

Published system evidence
Choose the route. Then read the product data.
These are starting routes, not a substitute for checking the selected product TDS against the slab, exposure and programme.
Production, warehouse and clean-floor duty
For a seamless self-smoothing wearing surface where roller-applied film is not enough.
Cleanable protection for lighter duty
For prepared operational floors where a practical, maintainable epoxy coating is the requirement.
Low-odour work around occupied spaces
For selected buildings and programme constraints where low odour and reopening conditions matter.
For prepared mineral substrates where deeper penetration is required, review PrimeBond S30 and PrimeBond S30 TDS (PDF). Solvent-based primer selection requires suitable ventilation and is not the default route for occupied areas.
System anatomy
The finish only performs when every layer has a reason.
The visible surface is the final decision, not the first. Preparation, primer compatibility and film build determine whether the system stays bonded and useful.

Singapore operating reality01 02 03
Three conditions that decide whether an epoxy floor lasts.
Moisture below the coating
Check the slab and select the primer from its actual condition. Active water ingress is a substrate problem first. Review surface preparation before coating.
Heat during application
High temperatures shorten working time. Mixing and application discipline protect the selected build; confirm the selected product’s timing in its TDS.
Programme pressure
The system needs to fit the preparation, recoat and return-to-service window the project can really afford. Send the actual shutdown window for review.
Compare chemistries
Epoxy, PU or PU-cement?
Epoxy is a strong interior starting point. UV stability, thermal shock and severe wash-down can change the chemistry required.
| Epoxy | Polyurethane | PU-cement | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best role | Interior primers and body coats | UV-stable finishes | Heat and wash-down duty |
| UV exposure | Not a standard exposed finish | Suitable with selected system | Confirm the required build |
| Thermal shock | Limited | Limited | Designed for demanding wet-process duty |
| Typical selection question | What traffic and substrate? | What UV or flexibility? | What heat, chemistry or wash-down? |
For full coating-system selection guidance, read how to select a coating system, review the epoxy application guide, or compare PU and PU-cement flooring routes.

How long does an epoxy floor last?
A properly specified and prepared epoxy floor can serve for many years. Surface preparation quality and matching the build-up to real traffic are more important than simply choosing the thickest coating.
Is epoxy flooring suitable outdoors in Singapore?
Standard epoxy can yellow under UV. Exposed areas normally need a UV-stable polyurethane finish; select the full build-up for the exposure rather than using indoor epoxy alone.
Can epoxy be applied to a damp concrete slab?
Only with a suitable damp-tolerant primer and after checking the substrate. Standing water and active water ingress must be resolved first.
Epoxy or polyurethane — which should I choose?
Epoxy is commonly used for hard, economical interior body coats. Polyurethane provides UV stability and flexibility. For hot wash-down and thermal shock, consider PU-cement instead.
What is the difference between water-based and solvent-free epoxy?
Water-based epoxy is useful where low odour matters. Solvent-free systems can provide greater film build for heavier-duty floor applications. Confirm the selected product build in its TDS.
How thick should an epoxy floor be?
Film build follows the duty, not a default thickness. Roller-applied coatings, self-levelling epoxy floors and screeds are different systems. Confirm the selected build, substrate preparation and coverage against the relevant product TDS.
How much does epoxy flooring cost in Singapore?
The quotation depends on the existing slab, preparation and repair work, area, selected system build, access and the available shutdown window. Send the floor area, current condition and programme for a system-specific review.
What preparation does concrete need before epoxy flooring?
The slab needs to be sound, mechanically prepared and dust-free before priming. Weak concrete, local defects, standing water and active moisture ingress must be addressed before the epoxy system is selected.
