Specialty Systems
Not every floor has the same challenges. Some environments deal with extreme wear, chemicals, moisture, or safety hazards that require more than standard epoxy. That’s where Specialty Systems come in. At PNA Coatings, we offer tailored epoxy and coating systems designed for specific conditions — from industrial factories to grow rooms, waterproof decks, and more. These systems go beyond appearance to solve performance and safety challenges, ensuring your floor stands up to its environment.
Specialty System Types
Slurries / Mortars
Slurries / Mortars
Slurries / Mortars
These are thick, high-build coatings designed for environments that demand maximum strength. Slurries and mortars add impact resistance and are often used in heavy industry, loading docks, and mechanical rooms.
- Best For: Warehouses, machine shops, factories
- Benefits: Extremely durable, fills surface imperfections, withstands impacts
- Cau

- Best For: Warehouses, machine shops, factories
- Benefits: Extremely durable, fills surface imperfections, withstands impacts
- Caution: Requires professional installation due to weight and working time
Industrial Floors
Slurries / Mortars
Slurries / Mortars
Industrial epoxy systems are built to handle constant foot traffic, forklifts, and spills. These coatings resist abrasion and chemicals, making them perfect for high-use facilities.
- Best For: Manufacturing, distribution centers, logistics hubs
- Benefits: Long-lasting, chemical-resistant, heavy-duty
- Caution: Downtime is critical — floors must be planned around production schedules
Grow Room Floors
Slurries / Mortars
Grow Room Floors
Grow facilities require sanitary, moisture-resistant, and reflective surfaces. Specialty grow room floors are seamless, making them easy to clean and resistant to mold, humidity, and fertilizers.
- Best For: Agriculture, cannabis, or hydroponic grow operations
- Benefits: Seamless hygiene, light-reflective finish, chemical resistant
- Caution: Must maintain proper ventilation during installation
Novolac Systems
Waterproof Deck Coatings
Grow Room Floors
Novolac epoxies are built for extreme chemical resistance. They withstand strong acids, solvents, and caustic materials that destroy standard coatings.
- Best For: Chemical plants, battery rooms, processing facilities
- Benefits: Maximum chemical resistance, long service life
- Caution: More rigid than standard epoxies, so substrate prep is key
Waterproof Deck Coatings
Waterproof Deck Coatings
Waterproof Deck Coatings
These systems protect decks, balconies, and rooftop areas from water intrusion and weather damage. They’re flexible enough to handle outdoor movement while providing a finished look.
- Best For: Exterior decks, rooftop patios, outdoor walkways
- Benefits: Waterproof, weather-resistant, UV stable
- Caution: Regular maintenance checks are recommended to prevent water seepage at joints
ESD – Anti-Static Floors
Waterproof Deck Coatings
Waterproof Deck Coatings
ESD (Electrostatic Dissipative) floors prevent the buildup of static electricity that can damage electronics or create safety hazards.
- Best For: Server rooms, labs, electronic assembly facilities
- Benefits: Reduces risk of static discharge, protects equipment
- Caution: Must be properly grounded for effectiveness
Tar Epoxy
Wall Epoxy
Wall Epoxy
Tar epoxies provide heavy-duty water and chemical resistance, often used in underground or marine environments.
- Best For: Water treatment plants, marine docks, basements
- Benefits: Superior waterproofing, chemical resistance
- Caution: Strong odor during install, requires proper ventilation
Wall Epoxy
Wall Epoxy
Wall Epoxy
Epoxy isn’t just for floors — wall epoxies create seamless, washable surfaces that resist moisture and chemicals.
- Best For: Commercial kitchens, clean rooms, hospitals, food processing plants
- Benefits: Easy to sanitize, prevents mold/mildew, durable finish
- Caution: Must be applied evenly to avoid roller/brush marks
