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.
