Floors That Fight Back: How MR. JO FloorKot-CMR Protects Against Chemical Damage
Floors That Fight Back: How MR. JO FloorKot-CMR Protects Against Chemical Damage
Not all epoxy coatings are made equal.
Most do well against foot traffic, forklifts, and dust. But in areas where harsh chemicals are used, stored, or spilled, standard epoxy floors start to wear out, peel, or stain — often within weeks.
This is where MR. JO FloorKot-CMR steps in.
A high-build epoxy coating with enhanced chemical resistance, CMR is built to protect floors in chemically aggressive environments — from acids and alkalis to solvents and sanitizers — without cracking, blistering, or yellowing.
🧪 Why Choose a Chemical-Resistant Floor?
In spaces like:
- Battery rooms
- Chemical storage zones
- Pharma and formulation plants
- Cleanrooms and R&D labs
- Engineering and metal plating workshops
- Food factories with heavy cleaning routines
…chemical spills and aggressive cleaners are the norm, not the exception.
Standard epoxy coatings degrade quickly — leading to surface erosion, staining, flaking, and even exposure of bare concrete, which becomes a safety hazard.
✅ What Makes MR. JO FloorKot-CMR Special?
- High chemical resistance: Formulated with epoxy resins and special hardeners to handle strong acids, alkalis, oils, and solvents
- High build: Tough, durable coat — typically applied in 2–3 coats
- Solvent-free: Safe to use indoors, no odor, low VOC
- Room temperature cure: No heaters or ovens needed
- Roller application: No self-leveling gear or expert labor required
- Can be used over old epoxy: Great for upgrades and touch-ups
🛠️ Application Guidance
Recommended Primer:
Choose based on substrate condition:
- LVC: Smooth concrete, higher wetting
- MVC: All-purpose primer
- UPS: Damp or underprepared surfaces
Recommended Underlay (esp. for 0.5 & 1 mm): - MR. JO Underlay-STD: Standard flowable screed
- FLO Underlay: Smoother finish screed
- TMP Underlay: Tampable for coving/edge zones
- CMR Underlay: For chemical-resistant floors
🛠️ Application: Designed for Real-World Workspaces
Just like the rest of the MR. JO FloorKot series, CMR is easy to use:
- Surface prep — dry, dust-free concrete or old epoxy coating
- Apply primer — choose from:
- MVC – general use, best overall
- UPS – damp/underprepared floors
- LVC – smooth concrete
- Eco Primer – cost-effective and fast-setting
- Mix CMR (resin + hardener)
- Roll on 2–3 coats for full protection
- Leave to cure overnight
You can even apply CLR topcoat over CMR for extra gloss and scratch resistance.
📍 Where FloorKot CMR Is Being Used
- Formulation & R&D zones in pharma and chemical companies
- Battery storage areas in manufacturing plants
- Vehicle service workshops with oil and fluid exposure
- Laboratories with frequent cleaning/disinfecting cycles
- Metal treatment areas with acid/alkali handling
Basically, wherever standard epoxy fails — CMR holds.
💬 User Experiences
“Our epoxy floor near the battery charging station used to peel every few months. With FloorKot-CMR, it’s held firm through two monsoons.”
— Maintenance Head, Logistics Park, Bhiwandi
“Cleaning agents always dulled our lab floor. CMR took care of it — no damage, no discoloration.”
— QA Officer, Formulation Plant, Vadodara
“It’s easy to roll, cures overnight, and handles brake fluid and grease better than most high-end PU floors we’ve tried.”
— Auto Workshop Chain Owner, Rajkot
🔗 Perfect Pairings for Smart Floors
| System | Use Case | Add-on |
| CMR only | Chemical zones | 2–3 coats for full build |
| CMR + CLR | For glossy chemical-resistant floors | 1 clear topcoat |
| CMR + YLW | Hazard zones with markings | Yellow stripes for visuals |
| CMR + Primer | On concrete or damp substrates | MVC / UPS recommended |
You can also combine CMR with FloorKot-HB in other zones for a complete facility-wide epoxy plan.
