Anode and Cathode Dryroom Flooring

In the highly controlled environment of anode and cathode production, specialised high performance flooring is essential. Floors must withstand the constant operation of vibrating heavy machinery and mixing vessels while resisting exposure to powders, solvents and other potentially corrosive substances. They must also support contamination control by not shedding particles, act as a barrier to moisture and provide reliable electrostatic dissipative (ESD) protection combined with slip resistance. Sherwin-Williams flooring solutions provide the durability, cleanliness and safety these demanding dryrooms require.

Robust, Low-Maintenance Flooring for Anode and Cathode Facilities

The flooring in battery manufacturing dryrooms faces daily challenges such as vibrating heavy equipment, mixing vessels and rigorous cleaning procedures. These surfaces must resist abrasion, impact and wear, while also protecting against damage from chemicals used in electrode manufacturing, such as solvents, binders and electrolytes—including aggressive substances such as NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone), DMC (dimethyl carbonate) and other chemicals that can corrode or degrade concrete, vinyl and traditional epoxy floors. Because dryrooms operate at extremely low humidity (often <1% RH), floors must limit moisture permeability to prevent lithium contamination. Additionally, materials should not outgas, emit particles or absorb moisture over time. Without specialised protection, dryroom floors can break down leading to particles being emitted and moisture vapour contamination further compromising the dryroom environment.

Sherwin-Williams dryroom flooring systems are designed to be low-maintenance, non-porous and easy to clean. ESD options are available to reduce the risk of static charge build up, which is critical in environments handling sensitive battery materials. Seamless, non-shedding finishes maintain particle control, which helps prevent contamination of battery cells and simplifies cleaning and maintenance. Slip-resistant finishes can also be incorporated to reduce the risk of accidents in production areas, and our fast-curing, low-VOC materials minimise downtime and disruption during installation or repair.

Dryroom Flooring That Promotes Cleanliness, Safety and Compliance

Anode and cathode production requires precise environmental control to maintain product quality and prevent contamination, including maintaining flooring that minimises particle shedding and supports effective cleaning protocols. Sherwin-Williams dryroom flooring systems are seamless, non-shedding and available in ESD options to meet the specific needs of battery manufacturing.

Our high performance coatings are engineered to withstand aggressive cleaning agents, resist chemical attack and handle heavy mechanical loads. They create a smooth, sealed surface that prevents material build-up, helping maintain ISO cleanroom classifications and other industry standards. Specifically, all systems are designed to meet ISO 14644 standards, with documented performance data available.

Whether constructing a new anode or cathode production dryroom or upgrading an existing facility, Sherwin-Williams provides flooring solutions that combine durability, compliance and ease of maintenance—ensuring your operations remain efficient, safe and contamination-free.
