This level of preparation is designed to prevent material handling equipment from damaging the edges of epoxy striping. Traditional paints and tapes sit on the surface, allowing forklift traffic to strike the edge and ride up over the line. The pressure and shear forces created are too great for surface-applied materials to withstand, which is why they often wear out or fail. By embedding the striping below the surface, forklifts pass over the line smoothly without applying damaging shear force.
Embedded floor striping is the most durable warehouse striping solution available. While it requires more time and a higher upfront investment than other methods, it delivers long-term value. Once installed, it eliminates the need for frequent recoating—whether monthly or annually—resulting in significant savings on maintenance over time.
Because of the initial cost, we recommend this solution for high-traffic areas where durability and performance matter most, providing a cost-effective, long-lasting installation.
We ask all customers to thoroughly clean their warehouse or distribution center floors prior to our arrival for striping installation. Embedded floor striping requires the use of masking tape, so surfaces must be clean and free of dust, debris, and contaminants to ensure proper adhesion.
Mr. Warehouse Services works closely with customers throughout the planning process, recognizing that downtime directly impacts operations. We provide flexible scheduling options that align with your workflow, helping minimize disruptions while ensuring our installation teams complete the project efficiently and on time.
