Wheel paths reveal the real duty
Logistics & warehousing
Turning circles, braking points and pallet-drop areas usually need more attention than the straight aisle. Zone the floor specification around how traffic actually moves.
Industrial floors engineered around the way your facility works.
Epoxy, polyurethane, PU-cement and joint systems selected around traffic, chemistry, temperature, hygiene and downtime—not a generic coating name.

Direct answer 01
What flooring should your facility use?
The best system is the lowest-risk match for the site—not the thickest or most expensive option.
Dry warehouse: start with epoxy paint or self-levelling epoxy.
Hot washdown: shortlist PU-cement / polyurethane screed.
Heavy impact: assess epoxy mortar, screed or a heavy-duty composite build.
Exterior / UV: consider a compatible UV-stable PU finish.
Moving joints: keep them expressed with a designed joint system.
System library 02
Choose the system by duty—not by product name.
Each page states where the system fits, where it does not, what the proposal must include and what questions a buyer should ask.

Different facilities punish floors in different ways.
These are not portfolio claims. They are visual decision guides showing the conditions that should shape the first technical conversation.
Clean production
The body coat, coves, thresholds and penetrations must create one maintainable surface. A smooth field area cannot compensate for weak perimeter details.
Hot washdown
Water temperature, chemical concentration and wet–dry cycling often move the decision from conventional epoxy toward a suitable PU-cement build.
Movement & interfaces
Joints, drains, plinths and door thresholds should be resolved before coating starts. They are designed interfaces, not finishing-stage surprises.

Answers for buyers 09
AEO-ready, human-first
Frequently asked questions.
Short answers first, with the conditions that change the decision.
Which industrial flooring system is best for a warehouse?
Sound dry warehouses often use epoxy coatings or self-levelling epoxy. Forklift turning zones, impact areas and damaged slabs may need epoxy mortar or a heavier build. Confirm wheel loads, slab condition and shutdown time first.
What floor is suitable for food production and hot washdown?
PU-cement or polyurethane screed is commonly shortlisted for hot washdown, wet processing and thermal cycling. The exact grade and thickness should follow temperature, chemical and hygiene requirements.
How much does epoxy flooring cost in Saudi Arabia?
Cost depends on area, preparation, repairs, thickness, system, texture, access and cure window. Send city, area, photos and service conditions for a comparable proposal.
Does SolidDrops work outside Jeddah?
SolidDrops supports projects across KSA, including Jeddah, Riyadh, Dammam, Jubail, Makkah, Madinah, Tabuk and nearby industrial areas.
What should I send for a flooring recommendation?
Send project city, approximate area, floor photos, current damage, traffic, chemicals, washdown temperature, required finish and available shutdown time. BOQ or drawings are useful when available.
