Slip Resistant Waterproof Floor Coating System

When it comes to waterproofing floors, whether indoors or outdoors, traditional methods often fall short in durability, flexibility, and long-term performance. Enter SANI-TRED, a cutting-edge floor coating system that not only offers superior waterproofing but also introduces revolutionary technologies like flexible penetration technology™ and elongation memory™. These unique features make SANI-TRED the only waterproof floor coating system that strengthens over time instead of weakening, providing unparalleled protection for your floors.

The Power of SANI-TRED: Flexible Penetration Technology™ and Elongation Memory™

At the heart of SANI-TRED’s effectiveness are its two key technologies: flexible penetration technology™ and elongation memory™. Flexible penetration technology™ refers to the product’s ability to deeply penetrate the pores of concrete and other substrates, creating a strong, permanent bond that locks the coating in place. This deep penetration forms tiny, solid rubber sealing plugs that act like high-pressure hydraulic O-rings, ensuring a watertight seal that can withstand even the most challenging conditions.

Elongation memory™ is equally impressive. This technology allows the SANI-TRED coating to stretch and flex without losing its shape or integrity. This means that the coating can adapt to the natural expansion and contraction of the substrate due to temperature changes, moisture levels, and other environmental factors. Unlike traditional waterproofing products that can crack or delaminate over time, SANI-TRED remains flexible and strong, providing lasting protection for your floors.

A Superior Bonding Platform for Various Flooring Systems

One of the standout features of SANI-TRED is its versatility as a bonding platform. Whether you’re working with flexible rubberized flooring paint, liquid rubber floor coatings, or rigid epoxies, SANI-TRED provides the perfect base for a wide range of flooring systems. Its unique polymer chemistry ensures that the bond strengthens over time, making it ideal for high-load, hard flooring specifications.

For basement waterproofing, SANI-TRED offers a Slip Resistant, waterproof flooring system available in smooth, seamless styles and colors, as well as custom textures. This allows you to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing floor that is also protected against moisture and wear.

SANI-TRED as a Critical Primer for Epoxies and Other Rigid Floor Systems

In many flooring applications, particularly in basements, moisture vapor drive can cause significant problems. Moisture can penetrate through the concrete slab, leading to the detachment, blistering, or delamination of surface coatings like epoxies and tiles. This is where SANI-TRED truly shines. When used as a primer, SANI-TRED creates a durable, impact-resistant buffer that absorbs shocks and protects the surface coat from moisture-related damage.

By applying SANI-TRED’s waterproof basement floor paint as a primer before installing standard two-part epoxies or other rigid flooring systems, you can ensure that your floors remain intact and functional for years to come. The SANI-TRED primer not only protects against moisture but also enhances the adhesion of the topcoat, resulting in a more durable and long-lasting finish.

SANI-TRED LRB (Liquid Rubber Base): The Ultimate Waterproofing Solution

SANI-TRED’s Liquid Rubber Base (LRB) is a polyurethane product that offers exceptional versatility and performance. One of its most remarkable features is its ability to cure at any thickness without gassing. This means that you can apply the product in thick layers for areas that require extra protection, without worrying about bubbles or voids forming in the coating.

Moreover, SANI-TRED LRB molecularly bonds to itself, even when applying new layers over old ones. This eliminates the risk of cold joints or weaknesses at the seams, ensuring a continuous, watertight barrier that stands up to the toughest conditions.

SANI-TRED PermaFlex: The Core of the Waterproofing System

SANI-TRED PermaFlex is the cornerstone of the SANI-TRED waterproofing system. This rubberized paint for concrete floors not only penetrates deeply into the substrate but also creates a network of sealing tentacles that lock the coating in place. These tentacles work like tiny hydraulic O-rings, providing flexible penetration technology™ that keeps the coating anchored, even under extreme pressure.

One of the most impressive capabilities of SANI-TRED PermaFlex is its ability to retain negative hydrostatic pressure. This means that it can withstand the pressure exerted by water pushing from below the surface, a common issue in basement waterproofing. In fact, the SANI-TRED waterproof basement flooring system can handle almost six times the amount of negative hydrostatic pressure typically found in commercial slab-on-grade or below-grade slabs.

To demonstrate the power of SANI-TRED PermaFlex, a concrete patio block coated with the product was broken in half, revealing the deep penetration of the coating throughout the block. This visual proof of SANI-TRED’s effectiveness highlights why it is the superior choice for waterproofing floors, particularly in challenging environments.

Applications and Benefits of SANI-TRED Waterproof Floor Coating Systems

SANI-TRED’s waterproofing solutions are not limited to basements. The products are tough enough to withstand high-traffic areas like truck scale platforms, providing long-lasting protection without sacrificing performance. The system’s electrical resistance flooring exceeds 11 kV per 5 mil coat of PermaFlex on steel, making it a robust choice for industrial applications where durability and safety are paramount.

Whether you’re looking to waterproof a residential basement, protect a commercial floor, or safeguard a high-traffic industrial area, SANI-TRED has a solution that meets your needs. The products are designed to be easy to apply, with options for smooth or textured finishes depending on your requirements. And because SANI-TRED strengthens over time, you can be confident that your floors will remain protected for years to come.

Important Considerations for Installation

For all interior or exterior waterproof basement flooring installations where retaining negative hydrostatic pressure is required, it is critical that all old paints, sealers, and waterproofing agents are removed. This ensures that the SANI-TRED products can penetrate and bond directly to the original concrete surfaces, maximizing their effectiveness and durability.

Proper surface preparation is essential for achieving the best results with SANI-TRED. By taking the time to thoroughly clean and prepare the substrate, you can ensure that the coating bonds correctly and provides the maximum level of protection.

The Future of Waterproofing with SANI-TRED

In a world where traditional waterproofing methods often fall short, SANI-TRED offers a revolutionary alternative that outperforms the competition. With its flexible penetration technology™, elongation memory™, and unique polymer chemistry, SANI-TRED not only protects your floors but also enhances their durability and longevity.

As you explore your waterproofing options, consider the many benefits that SANI-TRED has to offer. Whether you’re dealing with a residential basement, a commercial facility, or an industrial site, SANI-TRED provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing your floors are protected by the best in the business.
