Antimicrobial Epoxy Flooring
(800) 708-9870 FREE Quote |
Everlast Floor is made with an integral EPA-registered
anti-microbial component to impede the growth of microorganisms,
thus providing long term protection from a broad spectrum of
bacteria, fungi, yeast, actinomycetes, and mildew. This protects
your floor from germ and odor causing microorganisms - thus repelling
objectionable odors.
While some floor systems contain an anti-microbial dispersion in the
sealer only, leaving the floor vulnerable from underneath or when
gauged, we incorporate it throughout the epoxy flooring system.
"Inherently" Antimicrobial Flooring Claims
Some floors claim to be "inherently anti-microbial" and do not use
any additives. Some compounds are inherently-antimicrobial, such as
latex and silver, but epoxies, urethanes, and rubbers are not.
Unless an anti-microbial dispersion is incorporated into the resin,
their floor is not anti-microbial.
At Everlast Epoxy Flooring we are committed to doing our part to
promote healthy public facilities. Using an EPA-registered
anti-microbial component is one of the many ways we contribute.
Bacteria and other microbes exist just about anywhere. They can be
carried in your facility from staff, customers, supplies and
inventory. They can be blown in from an open door. They can be
tracked in from the outside or from another room. They can be
attached to insects that crawl in thru cracks and crevices. No
amount of cleaning can insure that your facility will be
microbe-free. Your floor has the highest exposure to microbes of any
other part of your facility. With Everlast Epoxy Flooring, you can
rest assured that your floor will be protected.
Some microorganisms controlled by our anti-microbial component
are:
Fungis:
- Aureobasidium pullulans (Black Yeast)
- Aspergillus flavus (causes mold on stored grains)
- Aspergillus niger (Black Mold)
- Aspergillus terreus (a fungal pathogen)
- Penicillium pinophilum (a food contaminate)
- Rhizopus nigricans (Bread Mold)
Yeast:

Bacteria:
- Aerobacter aerogenes (produces gas that sours milk)
- Bacillus subtilis (Hay Bacillus)
- Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (a cause of gastrointestinal disorder)
- Escherichia coli (E-Coli)
- Klebsiella pneumoniae (produces lung pathology)
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa (an opportunistic human pathogen)
- Salmonella typhosa (Salmonella)
- Staphlococcus aureus (Staph)
