Trimaco AquaShield Floor Protection Available Now

We're always looking out for new products to add to our lines, and today we have done just that by adding Trimaco's AquaShield floor protection. Waterproof, fire resistant, and reusable, AquaShield is an ideal surface protection for concrete slabs. 

AquaShield comes standard as a certified flame resistant material. Flame-resistant AquaShield is the ideal choice for hospitals, laboratories, and other environments with stringent fire prevention measures. 

AquaShield is available in three thicknesses to suit your project's needs. The 10 mil AquaShield is the lightest and easiest to transport and cut into place, making it great around stairs and other light-use areas where heavy machinery and equipment won't be used. Next, 25 mil AquaShield is the most commonly used one. It can hold up to use by forklifts and most normal equipment on commercial jobsites. If you need heaps of damage protection, then the thick 40 mil will stand up to just about anything. 

In addition to the features listed above, AquaShield is UV-resistant, meaning that it holds up outside. This allows it to be reused, making it economical over time. Furthermore, it features an embedded diamond plate pattern, making it slip resistant when used to cover flooring, and being walked on.

Clean & Safe water resistant floor protection is being used inside units to prevent mud and water from getting tracked onto the new floors. Finally, walk-off mats are being placed at this projects entrances to limit the amount of dirt and debris entering the jobsite; minimizing  clean-up costs and finish damages.

Brush Up On Concrete Surface Protection Options

As commercial construction continues to roar on, surface protection for concrete has become one of the most common requests we receive from builders. Any work to fix or replace concrete is extremely time intensive, and also commonplace as heavy machinery and tools are used on and above finish slabs. Fortunately concrete can be one of the most straightforward finishes to protect on a jobsite.

CoverGuard protecting a hospital floor

RamBoard is among the most popular floor protection products in the industry. Useful on concrete, decorative concrete, hardwood, tile, and just about everything else, RamBoard is the most cost-effective breathable concrete protection available. RamBoard is sold in 38" x 100' rolls, and starts at $54.90/roll, with discounts available on pallet quantities of 16 or greater.

EZ Cover is another leading concrete surface protection option. Breathable and often spec'd in for concrete projects, EZ Cover allows concrete to harden and cure underneath, while providing two layers of impact protection. EZ Cover is the ideal protection for colored slabs and other high-end decorative concrete work.

CoverGuard is a very strong plastic based surface protection, good for use on cured slabs, as it isn't breathable. It is a diamond-plated hard plastic floor protection that can be hosed down and reused, and also cut to shape on a jobsite. CoverGuard is available in three thicknesses, as well as in a fire-resistant formulation for hospital jobsites. CoverGuard is available in 36" and 72" rolls, and we currently stock the 36" rolls.

Surface Protection for Commercial Construction Projects

Commercial construction is booming. Even in metro areas such as Houston where overall building starts are down, commercial construction is thriving. Companies need office space, labs, and auditoriums and commercial contractors are delivering. With this building boom also comes a glut of surface protection issues on jobsites.

Commercial construction projects often run into different jobsite surface protection problems than residential projects do. For example, at the Knight Cancer Center in Portland, Oregon we were tasked with providing protection for specialty lab panels that were made bespoke for this building. Using a mix of our products including DoorGuard Plus and All-Protect we could create the surface protection solution needed. Particularly in hospital and lab settings builders have to construct complicated and custom features unique to that project.

CoverGuard in use on our customer's hospital project in Austin

Large scale concrete floors, glass panels, and lots of doors are the most commonly protected surfaces on commercial projects. Builders have relied on our RamBoard, CoverGuard, and Tuf-Guard for protecting their concrete slabs. Corrugated plastic sheets have been used to protect walls and hallways in military barracks projects and even in university landscaping applications. We custom cut hundreds of corrugated sheets to protect curtain wall components for San Diego's recently completed courthouse.

With a wide variety of products, materials, and applications, just about any commercial finish and surface can be protected from damage. Just because a product for that specific purpose isn't listed on a website or in a catalog doesn't mean that there aren't materials suited to protect it. If you have any surface protection needs let us know, as we've created packages for all manner of finishes, surfaces, and sizes.

Use 10 Mil CoverGuard for Floors, Carpets, Stairs, and Nearly Anything Else

We now stock 10 mil Orange Economy CoverGuard, an ideal and cost effective floor protection solution. At 10 mils thick, it is 40% the thickness of standard 25 mil CoverGuard. Because standard CoverGuard is so strong and durable, for many light duty projects it is essentially overkill - making it unnecessarily strong and heavy for the task at hand. While 25 mil CoverGuard is suited to handling heavy equipment and tools, it may be excessive for foot traffic and light use. The new 10 mil CoverGuard then fills the surface protection niche or being reusable and cost effective on a price per sqft basis.

This new updated CoverGuard is already being used by our customers to protect high end carpeting in custom home projects. Because is it stronger than standard films and because it is reusable, 10 mil CoverGuard can be a cost effective solution for carpet protection. The same can be said in regards to RamBoard, whose composite fibers don't hold up as well over time as the plastic-based CoverGuard can. Stairs, tile, hardwood, concrete, countertops, and any number of other hard surfaces can all be reliably and safely protected by 10 mil CoverGuard.

CoverGuard Economy 10mil is sold in rolls of 36" x 393', totalling 1180 sqft. Each roll is currently discounted and retails for $200 on our website, a savings of $27 off of MSRP. Given that 10 mil CoverGuard is four times the length of RamBoard, Economy CoverGuard's cost per square foot is actually lower than RamBoard's.
