Epoxy Flooring for Gyms.

Epoxy is the flooring solution strong enough for the toughest gym environments. 

Owning a gym is rewarding but challenging. In a city like Brisbane, the demand for gyms is high but so are the start-up costs and the competition. Epoxy flooring for gyms gives you an advantage in a city with warm weather, a growing population and a highly active fitness culture. 

South East Queensland is home to thousands of gyms of all types: from large chain and 24-hour access gyms to boxing and MMA gyms and boutique fitness studios. The right gym flooring should be durable and safe, prioritising cleaning and slip prevention. Epoxy flooring for gyms fits these criteria perfectly. 

Epoxy Flooring Projects provides same-day commercial epoxy flooring around South East Queensland. With our rapid cure technologies, we complete your epoxy flooring job in a matter of hours, minimising downtime so you can concentrate on training your clients and bringing in new ones. 

The benefits of epoxy flooring for gyms

‍Gym flooring commonly comes in all kinds of materials including rubber, vinyl and hardwood. While all these styles have their benefits, epoxy flooring for gyms comes with the following advantages:

Resilience and durability

Gym floors absorb a lot of impact, from heavy foot traffic to dropped weights to activities like running, jumping and boxing. With that kind of constant motion, many flooring materials succumb to chipping, cracking and other damage. Epoxy flooring, on the other hand, resists damage and lasts for decades, potentially saving you thousands of dollars on future repairs. 

Ease of cleaning

Gyms need to be cleaned on a daily basis. But this can be disruptive to patrons, particularly in 24/7 environments. Epoxy flooring for gyms cuts down on the time it takes to clean the environment, and its non-porous surface doesn’t absorb spills or stains. With a simple wipedown or quick mop, the floor can be clean and ready for use again. 

Safe and slip-resistant

Epoxy floors provide excellent grip during physical activities and are available with a slip-resistant coating that reduces the risk of accidents. 

Stylish and versatile

While rough and gritty gyms exist, most gym-goers prefer welcoming, hygienic environments with quality modern equipment. Epoxy flooring has a sleek and contemporary look that makes your facility look contemporary and professional and reflects natural light throughout the space. It also gives you the means to get creative in your design. 

Style tips for gym epoxy flooring

Each gym has its own identity and character, with even the biggest chain gyms sharing common elements from classes to colour schemes. One of the benefits of epoxy flooring for gyms is being able to give your gym its own unique look. Some of the ways you can do this include:

Use vibrant colours

Popular chain gyms commonly use powerful colours like red, purple and black in their branding. Epoxy flooring lets you decorate the interior of your gym with these same stimulating shades, keeping your brand identity consistent. 

‍Incorporate your brand logo

‍Epoxy flooring lets you make the brand logo of your gym a feature of the flooring design. Placing metallic or flake effects around it can draw attention to the logo while complementing its design. 

Add functional design

‍Epoxy flooring has a versatile look that you can use to your advantage by marking designated activity or workout zones with different colours and line markings. 

The epoxy flooring installation process

‍In the hands of a professional, epoxy flooring is a fast and efficient process that’s perfect for a busy environment like a gym. Here’s how Epoxy Flooring Projects will install your new floor:

‍Prepare the concrete

We will use diamond grinding to prepare the concrete then repair any chips, cracks or imperfections. 

Apply the epoxy flooring

We apply the epoxy coating across the entire floor of your gym, including the flakes or quartz that form part of your look. 

‍Apply the non-slip coating

‍We add a layer of anti-slip coating to the floor before applying the final epoxy topcoat. 

Let it cure

Traditional epoxy flooring can take days, with a long curing process. But Epoxy Flooring Projects can cut the curing time down to as little as two hours.
