Floor Finish for Government
THE EPIC® SOLUTION
FOR Government Buildings, Correctional Facilities, & Military Bases
Make a Statement with EPIC Shine
Government facilities are oftentimes heavily occupied spaces. Scratches and scuffs are especially common on the floors of hallways, lobbies, and common areas of these spaces. Over time, this wear and tear from high foot traffic becomes visible and floors lose their shine and look dull. The result is the impression that they are not maintained well. Government service buildings especially are a source of pride for a city, county, state, or country. UDT’s EPIC High-Performance Floor Finish for government buildings yields surfaces that are clean, shiny, and slip resistant. Communities can be proud knowing that their buildings are evidence of the dedication to maintaining the best spaces possible.
CLEAN & FRESH SURFACES
Acrylic wax's porous nature turns it into a breeding ground for bacteria and other contaminants, which release foul odors no matter how often you mop the waxed surface. In contrast, EPIC promotes facility health and safety by creating a non-porous barrier that blocks biofilm formation and traps odor-causing agents like dirt, urine, and bacteria. EPIC keeps spaces smelling fresh and looking their best. UDT specifically designed its EPIC Tile and Grout Floor Finish to keep surfaces with grout lines clean and sparkling.
MINIMAL MAINTENANCE WITH MAXIMIZED RESULTS
EPIC is a water-based urethane finish that eliminates the need for any buffing, stripping, and waxing. Routine cleaning for EPIC only requires an auto scrubber or microfiber mop and gentle detergent (or plain water). One recoat is only needed every 3-5 years in high-traffic areas and can be done in as little as 4 hours, which simplifies maintenance scheduling. Put simply, switching to EPIC saves an ever-increasing amount of time, energy, and money that can be poured into other priorities.
EPIC bonds directly to resilient flooring, tile & grout, terrazzo, and concrete, and it provides extreme chemical and stain resistance. The abrasion resistance of EPIC can even be customized to meet slip-resistance and cleanability standards. By adhering to surfaces and penetrating all gaps to form a seamless membrane, EPIC makes cleaning and sanitizing a breeze.
IMPROVED INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ)
Buffing an acrylic-coated floor releases harmful particulates into the air, which building occupants then inhale. This activity stirs up germs from the floors and circulates them into the air of frequently occupied spaces, posing a health risk. Fortunately, switching to EPIC eliminates the need for buffing and burnishing, which significantly improves indoor air quality (IAQ). When we say EPIC doesn’t require ANY buffing, we mean it! You can keep floors clean and shiny without compromising public health.
HEALTH & SAFETY FOR EVERY FLOOR TYPE
EPIC delivers long-lasting chemical and stain protection, along with extreme abrasion resistance, for every floor type—LVT, VCT, sheet vinyl, linoleum, tile & grout, terrazzo, and even concrete! To reduce slip risks while keeping floors visually appealing, pair EPIC with one of our Ultra Grip levels or Aggregate Additives. Adding Ultra Grip or UDT Aggregate increases traction, enhances durability, and elevates the floor’s appearance.
Government buildings often feature terrazzo and concrete floors. Many facility managers polish or wax these surfaces with acrylic, which can increase the risk of slips. Instead, you can apply EPIC directly to these floors to highlight their natural beauty while shielding them from heavy foot traffic!
