Floor Coatings Solutions for Electric Charging Stations
Floor coatings for electric charging stations in warehouses or other industrial plants must be resistant to damage from exposure to acids.
With the advancement in design, the use of powered industrial fork trucks has increased dramatically over the last decade.
A large portion of these electric trucks are now powered by large lead-acid batteries designed to provide longer run times.
Both OSHA and the EPA now have stringent regulations regarding protecting both the employees as well as the overall safety of the facility. Oversights in the battery charging rooms or stations can easily lead to worker injury and property damage.
Due to the corrosive nature of the battery acid, the flooring of a charging area must be resistant to damage caused by exposure to acids. Tuff Industrial Products has your answer.

Novolac #740 comes in 1 gallon and 5-gallon kits. Typical coverage will be between 100-150 square feet per gallon depending on the current condition of the existing floors.
