HEALTH AND SAFETY
Indoor Air Quality
EPIC contains low levels of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), so it is safe for use even in occupied spaces. Also, the harmful method of buffing is no longer needed to maintain EPIC floors.
The buffing process forces chemicals, dust particles, viruses, and bacteria to be propelled into the air from the floor. These airborne contaminants pose a health threat to all who enter the facility, especially during the current COVID pandemic.
To illustrate the effects of routine buffing on IAQ, we performed a test at Saint Michael -Albertville High School. An Awair Omni air quality meter was used to record levels of PM2.5 (easily breathable fine particulate matter) and VOCs in a high-traffic corridor. The test was completed throughout an entire day, including when halls were empty (while students were milling through the halls during passing time), and when floors were buffed in the evening. The values were extraordinarily high when the buffing machine passed the IAQ meter, proving that the air is imply not safe to breathe during the cleaning process. Read about the test complete test and results in this ARTICLE.
Thankfully, EPIC’s unique formula never needs to be buffed, and as a result, it contributes to healthier indoor air quality (IAQ). Fast dry times and rapid return-to-service minimize disruption to classes and activities, allowing students and staff to safely resume use without extended downtime. 4-hour and 8-hour formulas provide maintenance staff with choices, so they can plan projects easily.
Slips, Trips and Falls
EPIC promotes a healthy and safe environment by providing slip resistance. Specifically, EPIC significantly increases abrasion resistance and traction when combined with Ultra Grip additives. It meets ADA and OSHA DCOF non-slip traction recommendations, ensuring the safety of students even when water or snow gets tracked in from outside More information can be found in our blog article, "How to Make Floors Anti-Slip."
Our floor coating systems combine versatility with proven durability, delivering reliable performance across a wide range of educational environments, including cafeterias and kitchens, locker rooms, classrooms, offices, restrooms, and mechanical spaces.
