Finding the right coating for commercial and institutional floors that take a beating from heavy traffic will be the focus of a free upcoming webinar sponsored by D+D.
“Flooring Options for High-Traffic Areas” will be presented from 11 a.m. to noon EDT Aug. 14.
Big-box stores, apartment lobbies, school hallways and other high-traffic spaces have unique flooring needs. This webinar will explore concrete floor coating options and discuss how to use a set of criteria to select the best option for the needs of a specific project.
Participants may register here free.
