The Lafayette area has a long industrial streak, with oilfield service yards, fabrication shops, distribution buildings and storage facilities along corridors like US 90 toward Broussard and New Iberia and around the regional airport. Big tilt-up and metal buildings often have bare concrete that dusts, stains and is hard to keep clean.
Built for forklifts and pallet jacks
Hard rubber and polyurethane wheels wear coatings at turning points and dock edges. Industrial systems use thicker builds, high-solids epoxy, or mortar-type products in the worst areas. Ask how the installer will handle dock plates, drive aisles and the spots where forklifts pivot under load.
Saw-cut control joints are another weak point. Hard wheels chip the edges if the joints are left open. Ask whether joints will be filled with a semi-rigid filler before or after coating.
Safety striping and zones
Many warehouse projects include painted or coated aisle lines, pedestrian walkways, hazard zones and parking markings. Bring a floor plan if you have one. Lines can go down as part of the system so they wear with the floor instead of on top of it.
If parts of the building see oil, hydraulic fluid or cleaning chemicals, ask for a topcoat rated for them.
Prep at scale
Large floors are usually prepped with ride-on grinders or shot blasting and dust collection. Old coatings, curing compounds and sealers must come off for good adhesion. See concrete grinding and prep, and if part of the floor is a smaller work bay, compare shop floor coatings.
Frequently asked questions
Can you coat a warehouse while it stays open?
Often, by phasing the work and moving racks or stock section by section. Fast-cure products help. Discuss the plan with the installer during the walk-through.
