Reducing Indoor Air Pollution with Industrial Painting in Albuquerque

Volatile organic compounds or VOCs that may be circulating around an enclosed space makes indoor pollution a serious threat to the health of your employees, so hiring reliable Albuquerque industrial painting professionals is one of the best ways you could help maintain the productivity and the well-being of your staff. What VOCs Are Volatile organic compounds are carbon-based chemicals that easily evaporate at room temperature, and while many of these can be easily detected and thus avoided, some are in fact odorless and practically undetectable.

Commercial Painting Contractors in Albuquerque Adding to Better Sales


"Market research should also determine which colors will work with certain demographics. If your store is catering towards Asian Americans, for example, a red color scheme for the store works, as red is synonymous with celebrations and good fortune. Never forget to adapt the official colors of your store’s branding. It is important that your customers’ mood be calmed down to help them reach an educated decision on buying a product. According to Porter, light colors such as orange and brown are “reassuring” to shoppers, and promo shelves with cues such as red arrows can make customers stop and see the items. While adequate lighting can highlight the peaceful mood, your contractor may advise limiting certain colors as accent material to better highlight the merchandise."

Mapping Options for Industrial Painting via Albuquerque Contractors


"Gather more details about the demographics and sensitivities in your area. There’s the rub, however: do you want your facility to be bold or do you want it to emphasize discretion? If you are aiming for a certain color that strikes a balance between the two, ask your contractor if they can apply custom-mix paint. If a home has a cool outside appearance, then the same should apply (if not be better) to the inside, which is where epoxy flooring in Albuquerque comes in. Contractors such as JTC vouch for the system because it is applicable on many base surfaces and adheres to them thoroughly. Epoxy floors are common on industrial facility interiors with a great deal of foot and vehicle traffic because they can withstand much abuse; wooden floors with epoxy coatings carry a natural luster or provide design opportunities for, say large corporate logos."

Spicing up the Hangar Floor through Industrial Painting in Albuquerque

The wide expanse of New Mexico may provide opportunities for building private airfields or aviation facilities, as well as refurbishing abandoned ones that have not been converted for non-aviation purposes. Albuquerque has a number of privately-owned hangars, foremost being the one maintained by retired IndyCar driver Bobby Unser. If you operate your own small airfield with a hangar that deserves a makeover, professionals at industrial painting in Albuquerque like the team at JTC Inc. will find ways to make it work.

Concrete may be the most common foundation material for hangar floors, but a visual inspection of the entire surface will be needed to further assess the scope of the project. Old hangars may have flayed floor coatings and paint. Jackson says diamond grinders will smoothen the floor surface and prepare it for the painting.

NM Commercial Painting Contractors Ensure High Quality and Efficiency

For reputable NM commercial painting contractors, painting for protection, durability, and aesthetics is as important as any other aspect of the construction process. This task, however, takes a reasonable amount of time to complete and requires more than mere rollers and brushes to finish. Fortunately, reputable industrial painting contractors have highly trained employees and top-notch tools in their arsenal.

Meanwhile, according to an Ezine article, commercial painters have several considerations to make to ensure that they handle their tasks efficiently. Among other things, the methods industrial painting contractors choose should ensure that the paint lasts longer. Prevention of rust, dirt, and chemicals should also be duly noted before applying the coating on any surface.

Industrial Painting in Albuquerque: Moisture on Concrete Flooring

This is where the extra layer of protection provided by industrial commercial coatings for Albuqurque structures come in. In addition to their protective qualities, excellent industrial coatings can make a drab flooring look better, and require less maintenance.

One of the most commonly used types of coating for concrete is epoxy. However, as a porous material, concrete can store moisture, and moisture is a natural enemy of epoxy. Too much moisture can cause the epoxy coating to peel off easily. Before the pros apply this coating, therefore, they will need to test the moisture content of the concrete floor.

Albuquerque Commercial Painting Contractors for a Proper Ombré Finish

The ombré finish is making waves in home décor, furnishings, and surprisingly, even hairstyles.

Painting a Picture of Quality Albuquerque Industrial Painting Material

Others

Aside from these main ingredients, industrial paint also has other components that serve various functions. For instance, modifiers or thickeners will help make the paint easier to apply, while co-solvents serve to add to the hardness of the binder. There are even some additives that increase the paint’s splatter resistance.

The various industrial or commercial coatings from Albuquerque distributors will vary in quality and performance based on each of the factors mentioned above. To evaluate the paint’s quality for yourself before choosing, contact the manufacturer and ask for a list of its ingredients (or the additives at least).

Qualities to Look for when Hiring NM Commercial Painting Contractors

Experienced NM commercial painting contractors know that painting large buildings always carries risks. In fact, a report from the US Department of Labor has shown that falling from scaffolds and aerial lifts is an all-too real danger in the construction and commercial painting industry:

Nearly 6.5 million people work at approximately 252,000 construction sites across the nation on any given day. The fatal injury rate for the construction industry is higher than the national average in this category for all industries.

A number of factors are often involved in falls, including unstable working surfaces, misuse or failure to use fall protection equipment and human error. Studies have shown that using guardrails, fall arrest systems, safety nets, covers and restraint systems can prevent many deaths and injuries from falls.

Industrial Floor Protection: Epoxy Flooring from Albuquerque Providers

One of the best floor coatings for industrial facilities in Albuquerque, NM is epoxy. Epoxy coatings were developed to toughen metal substrates and make them more durable. An article on BubbleWS.com emphasizes this advantage over powder coatings:

Epoxy floor coatings are an obvious choice to make when considering the issue of protection of floors, commercial or industrial. Epoxy is suitable for concrete and metal flooring types which are used in manufacturing plants, warehouses, airline hangers, auto dealer showrooms and garage bay floors. It is a liquid material which is hardened into a new surface upon its application over the older one, and has been used commercially for well over 70 years. It is commonly understood to act as a protecting agent for any surface upon which it is applied.

Below are more reasons why industrial facility builders in New Mexico and nearby states should consider epoxy flooring from Albuquerque companies such as JTC Inc.
