Strong, Safe Flooring for Jails, Prisons, and Correctional Institutions

Sherwin-Williams High Performance Flooring for correctional institutions, jails and prisons is fluid-applied, carefully engineered to produce seamless flooring systems and integral cove bases, thereby meeting the essential need for minimalistic finishes to help reduce vandalism in detention facilities. With the built-in antimicrobial features and integrated radial or canted cove base, these seamless concrete flooring solutions give microbes and dirt fewer places to hide, supporting effective pathogen control. Our correctional flooring offers customizable skid resistance that is well-balanced with floor cleanability, giving facilities the safety they need along with the convenience and efficiency of easy maintenance.

Heavy-Duty Flooring Systems for Correctional Facilities

Mopping certain concrete sealers and hardeners makes them wear away quickly, while stained and polished concrete flooring requires regular re-waxing, polishing or buffing. In both cases, porous concrete surfaces can begin to absorb germs. Concrete dusting can become problematic, posing a threat to air filtration systems and even your inhabitants’ health. In contrast, our hard-wearing concrete epoxy floor coating systems and other resinous flooring solutions provide detention facilities with the heavy-duty, long-wearing finishes they need. Exceptional durability and easy maintenance with no waxing are the hallmarks of these correctional facility flooring formulations. Without the need for specialized, expensive care, these concrete coatings provide great life cycle cost and exceptional flooring value.

Sherwin-Williams floor coating systems are a proven solution for correctional facilities, with benefits including:

  • Excellent compressive strength
  • Great impact resistance
  • Exceptional bond strength
  • Outstanding abrasion and scratch resistance
  • Very good tensile and flexural strength
  • Excellent chemical and stain resistance
  • Quick-curing and low-odor options
