Our epoxy floor paints provide durable, chemical-resistant surfaces for garages and industrial spaces. Formulated with premium resins, they resist cracking and fading while offering slip-resistant options for safety. Ideal for both commercial warehouses and residential applications requiring long-lasting protection.
ARMAFLEX Crack Repair
The ARMAFLEX V system offers permanent crack solutions using resilient rubber technology. Proven effective since 1980, it accommodates building movement while preventing water ingress. Widely used across Australia for bridges, pools, and concrete structures requiring maintenance-free durability.
RADMAT Movement Joints
RADMAT butyl rubber systems create watertight seals in structural expansion joints. Installed in pools and commercial buildings since 1982, they adapt to thermal movement without degradation. Provides 278+ meters of joint protection per project, ensuring structural integrity in aquatic centres and high-traffic areas.

POOL-GLAZE pool paint forms a flexible, waterproof membrane resistant to chlorine and UV exposure. Applied in projects like the 4,660m Pacific Blue installation, it bonds to concrete and tiles while maintaining colourfastness. Suitable for both new builds and refurbishment of commercial aquatic facilities.
