Materials & technical information
Epoxy supplies in Sydney
Source epoxy flooring materials with a clear understanding of their role in the system. ALKA's range includes primers and binders, coloured epoxy coatings and specialist finishes. Confirm compatibility and the current technical data before ordering.
ALKA 100
A two-component epoxy used as a primer or binder in specified flooring builds. A starting point for discussing substrate preparation and compatible subsequent coats.
View epoxy primer & binder →ALKA 110
A coloured, two-component epoxy coating used in roller-applied and self-smoothing flooring systems. Discuss finish, traffic and the proposed build with ALKA.
View coloured epoxy coating →ALKA 204
A clear polyaspartic topcoat for specified decorative flake and epoxy flooring finishes. It is a different resin chemistry from epoxy; compatibility must be confirmed for the complete system.

Find your application
A floor selected for the way you use it.
A residential garage, a busy workshop and a washdown area place different demands on a floor. Explore the relevant application before choosing a product or finish.
Garage epoxy flooring
Compare solid-colour and decorative finishes. Check tyre traffic, slab condition, moisture and sunlight at the garage opening.
Explore garage flooring →Warehouse flooring
Plan for forklift routes, turning points, pallet movement and loading areas. Review joints, surface wear and staged access.
Explore warehouse systems →Workshop flooring
Consider oils, fuels, cleaning chemicals and vehicle movement. Balance surface texture with practical cleaning requirements.
Explore workshop floors →Commercial kitchen flooring
Assess grease, wet cleaning, drains, coves and temperature changes. Hot washdown may call for a different resin flooring system.
Review kitchen requirements →Factories & industrial floors
Define impact, abrasion, equipment loads and operating hours. Select the build around the actual duty of each work zone.
Review heavy-duty flooring →Chemical-resistant floors
Identify each chemical, concentration, temperature and contact time. Resistance must be checked for the specific exposure.

Build the performance into every layer
Choose a system.
Then choose the finish.
Epoxy flooring is a resin-based coating or topping applied over a prepared substrate. Its performance depends on the whole build: sound concrete, suitable preparation, compatible layers, correct application and adequate cure.
A coloured surface alone does not tell you whether a floor is suitable for forklift traffic, chemical spills, wet cleaning or sunlight. Discuss those conditions before specifying thickness or texture.
ALKA-902 / typical layer sequence
ALKA-902
Standard Epoxy Floor System
A published ALKA system for general industrial and commercial concrete floors. Discuss the proposed traffic and finish to establish whether it suits your project.
Review the ALKA-902 system →ALKA-901
Self-Levelling Epoxy System
An alternative where a self-levelling epoxy body is required. The published system identifies limitations around severe thermal shock and continuous hot-water washdown.

What needs checking
before you coat?
The best starting point is an accurate project brief. Existing coatings, slab moisture, contamination and operating conditions can change the recommendation.
ALKA can help you interpret the product requirements. The applicator must assess the site and follow the agreed specification and current technical and safety data sheets.
- Concrete condition & moistureIdentify weak concrete, oil contamination, existing coatings and moisture sources. A primer is not a universal solution for water pressure or an unsound slab.
- Traffic, texture & cleaningBalance abrasion and impact demands with the required slip resistance and cleaning method. Agree any testing or acceptance criteria before installation.
- Chemicals & temperatureSpecify chemical names, concentrations, temperatures and exposure duration. General-purpose epoxy is not a substitute for an exposure-specific assessment.
- Sunlight, movement & specialist dutiesDiscuss UV exposure and compatible finish options. Retain appropriate movement-joint detailing. ESD or anti-static requirements need a dedicated system and verification plan.
From assessment to handover
How an epoxy floor is installed
The sequence below explains the main stages. The actual method, products and timing must follow the agreed system and conditions on site.
Assess
Review the slab, moisture, contaminants, joints, traffic and operating constraints.
Prepare
Mechanically prepare the surface as specified, remove dust and address defects and detailing.
Prime
Apply the approved primer at the specified coverage and observe the recoating window.
Build & finish
Install the body coats, aggregate or decorative finish and compatible topcoat where specified.
Cure & hand over
Allow the required cure before traffic, washing or chemical exposure. Provide a cleaning plan.
Budget & programme
What does epoxy flooring cost in Sydney?
There is no reliable single square-metre price for every floor. A supply-only materials quotation and an installed flooring quotation cover different scopes.
Compare quotes against the same preparation, repair work, layer build, finish, area, access and return-to-service requirements. A low headline rate may leave essential work outside the scope.

- System and detailsPrimer selection, coating build, decorative finish, texture, coving, joints and drainage interfaces.
- Site access and downtimeArea, staged works, working hours, equipment access, curing conditions and reopening requirements.

Questions before you start
Epoxy flooring & supplies FAQs
Is ALKA an epoxy manufacturer, supplier or installer?
ALKA is an Australian coating manufacturer and supplier. We provide product information and technical support for flooring systems. If your project needs installation, ask about a suitable contractor introduction; the contractor confirms site assessment, quotation and availability.
Can I buy epoxy supplies for a Sydney project?
Yes. Contact ALKA with the product or proposed application, floor area, colour, location and timing. We can discuss suitable materials and confirm quantities, stock, lead times and collection or delivery arrangements. Review the complete system before ordering individual components.
Which epoxy system is right for a garage or warehouse?
Selection depends on slab condition, moisture, vehicle or forklift traffic, sunlight and finish requirements. A garage may prioritise appearance and tyre traffic, while a warehouse may require detailed assessment of turning points, joints and loading areas. Use the relevant application page and discuss the project with ALKA.
Can epoxy flooring be applied over old paint or damaged concrete?
Only after the existing surface has been assessed. Unsound coatings, weak concrete and contamination can compromise adhesion and may need removal. Cracks, joints and moisture sources need appropriate treatment. The applicator should confirm preparation and any required adhesion or moisture testing before coating.
Is epoxy flooring suitable outdoors or in direct sunlight?
Suitability is product- and system-specific. Epoxy can change colour under UV exposure, and exterior areas introduce weather, drainage and movement considerations. Ask ALKA about an appropriate complete build and compatible UV-stable finish options for the exposure.
How soon can the floor return to service?
Follow the current technical data for every layer and the actual site conditions. Walking, vehicle traffic, washing and chemical exposure may have different waiting periods. Temperature and application conditions affect curing, so a touch-dry surface should not be treated as fully cured.
How do I maintain an epoxy floor?
Remove grit regularly, clean spills promptly and use the cleaning products and methods recommended for the system. Inspect high-wear areas and joints. Service life depends on preparation, coating build, traffic, exposure and maintenance; discuss repair or recoating when wear becomes evident.
What information helps ALKA recommend a system?
Provide the site suburb and postcode, approximate area, existing floor condition, intended use, traffic, chemicals or hot washdown, preferred finish and programme. Photos and drawings help identify issues for further assessment. State whether you need materials only or help finding an applicator.
