A flooring system is a sequence of compatible layers rather than a single product. Planning the build-up helps the installation team manage coverage, recoat windows, texture and final performance.

01

Define the performance target

Traffic, chemicals, cleaning procedures, slip resistance, appearance and downtime all influence system selection.

  • Confirm the expected traffic and loads
  • Identify chemical and thermal exposure
  • Choose the required texture and finish
  • Agree on maintenance expectations
02

Understand the purpose of each layer

The primer promotes adhesion and manages substrate porosity. Intermediate layers create thickness or receive aggregates, while the topcoat provides the final colour, cleanability and resistance required by the project.

  • Use only compatible system components
  • Plan mixing and application areas
  • Respect the specified coverage rate
  • Follow the stated recoat window
03

Prepare a written installation sequence

A simple sequence document keeps the crew, material and equipment coordinated. It should identify hold points where conditions and layer quality are checked before work continues.
