There are so many options when it comes to choosing a new flooring for a commercial premises, but those who are looking for something quick to install should consider getting methyl methacrylate (MMA).
This is one of the main advantages of MMA, as it takes as little as one hour to fully dry, which means rooms can be operational very quickly after the solution has been applied.
It is also water-, slip- and chemical-resistant, which makes it an ideal choice for a variety of industries, as it is incredibly durable and difficult to damage, just like epoxy flooring systems.
The floor is also able to withstand extreme temperatures, so developers do not have to worry about replacing it shortly after installation, as it is likely to stay in pristine condition no matter what condition it is put through.
Due to its resistance, it is often used in medical and industrial buildings where there are high traffic areas and a greater risk of harsh solutions being spilled on the floor.
Another advantage of MMA is that it comes in a variety of colours and finishes. Therefore, it is able to suit the overall interior design of the rest of the building with ease.
Should it be used for an office building, a chemical laboratory, a warehouse or factories, it will easily fit in with the aesthetic.
Businesses will also be attracted to the fact it has low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, which means it is not harmful to humans or the environment. Consequently, they can boost their sustainability credentials, which appeals to consumers.
According to a survey by Deloitte, one third of British customers are highly engaged with being more sustainable. As a result, 28 per cent have stopped buying products that are bad for the environment.
A green product such as MMA, therefore, will become increasingly popular as more and more people look for environmentally friendly choices when it comes to their flooring.
