Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Flooring in Akron, OH
Akron homeowners from Fairlawn to Kenmore, Merriman Hills to Chapel Hill, have discovered what Summit County's most satisfied customers already know: Canton Epoxy delivers the highest-quality epoxy flooring in Northeast Ohio at prices that make sense. Just 20 miles from our Canton shop, we serve the entire Akron metro area with the same workmanship-warranted, professionally installed systems that have earned us a 5-star reputation across the region. Whether you're renovating a historic Merriman Hills craftsman or upgrading the garage of a new Fairlawn build, we bring professional-grade results to every Summit County project.
Akron's varied housing stock — from Kenmore's working-class ranches to Fairlawn's upscale colonials — means we see every kind of concrete substrate, every kind of moisture challenge, and every kind of homeowner expectation. Our process is consistent regardless of the home: diamond-grind the surface to a CSP 2–3 profile, test for moisture vapor emission, fill cracks and imperfections, apply 100% solids epoxy base coat, broadcast a full flake of decorative vinyl chips, and seal with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. The result is a 30–40 mil thick floor that handles hot tire contact, oil spills, road salt, and everything Akron winters can throw at it.
From the University of Akron area to Chapel Hill to Cuyahoga Valley National Park's gateway neighborhoods, Canton Epoxy is Summit County's go-to choice for epoxy floors. Call 330.330.9900 today for a free, no-obligation Akron estimate.

Key Features
Heavy Traffic Rated
Epoxy mortar systems reach 12,000–18,000 PSI compressive strength, handling forklifts, pallet jacks, and continuous heavy equipment without cracking or delaminating.
Anti-Slip Aggregate Options
Broadcast quartz, aluminum oxide, or polymer grit aggregates achieve ASTM D2047-certified slip resistance (≥0.50 wet COF), satisfying OSHA walking-surface standards.
Chemical Resistance
Formulated to withstand industrial solvents, hydraulic fluids, battery acid, caustic cleaners, and food-grade chemicals without blistering, staining, or bond failure.
FDA/USDA Compliant Systems
Our food-service epoxy coatings comply with 21 CFR 175.300, making them approved for commercial kitchens, food processing floors, and HACCP-regulated environments.
OSHA Slip Resistance Certified
Every commercial installation meets OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22 requirements for walking surfaces, with documented COF test results available upon request.
Minimal Downtime Scheduling
We offer nights, weekends, and phased-zone installation to keep your facility operational — polyaspartic topcoats allow foot traffic in as little as 4–8 hours.
Custom Line Marking & Logo Embedding
ANSI A10.2-compliant line striping for safety lanes, rack footprints, and egress paths at $0.50–$3.00/linear ft, plus logo and insignia embedding for showrooms and corporate facilities.
Akron Project Details
How It Works in Akron
Our Installation Process
The same professional process we use on every Summit County project — no shortcuts.
Commercial Site Assessment
We walk the entire facility, document floor conditions, identify high-traffic zones, note chemical exposure areas, and discuss operational constraints — producing a written scope of work and phasing plan.
Surface Profile & Moisture Testing
We perform ICRI CSP testing to determine the required surface profile and conduct ASTM F2170 in-situ relative humidity testing to identify any moisture-vapor emission issues before coating begins.
Surface Preparation & Shot Blasting
Industrial shot blasting equipment opens the concrete profile to CSP 3–4, removing existing coatings, sealers, and surface contaminants while leaving a clean, mechanically profiled substrate for maximum adhesion.
Substrate Repair
Cracks are routed and filled, spalls are patched with rapid-set epoxy mortar, expansion joints are addressed with flexible joint filler, and any structural concerns are resolved before coating proceeds.
System Application
The specified coating system — primer coat, body coat (broadcast quartz, self-leveling, or mortar), and topcoat — is applied in controlled conditions. Each layer is allowed to cure per manufacturer specifications before the next is applied.
Line Marking, Curing & Final Inspection
ANSI A10.2-compliant line marking and any embedded graphics are applied during the topcoat phase. Final cure is confirmed, slip-resistance testing is documented, and a written compliance checklist is delivered with the project closeout.
