Long curing times due to low temperatures and the release of potentially contaminating odours can make applying epoxy floor coatings to create storage lines, pedestrian safe routes and safety symbols in chiller room costly and time consuming.

Greg Clark and his RapidShield team at flooring contractor Quality Marking Services (QMS) have been helping a supermarket chain to transform its approach to the process.

Once applied to a prepared, clean floor, RapidShield is cured instantly by a portable unit that emits UVlight, turning the coating into a solid film which creates a strong bond to the substrate. A durable, chemicalresistant, non-slip, gloss or matt finish is produced and the floor can be used again within minutes and it can be applied and cures at low temperatures.
