Our Floor Coatings Make the Difference
Healthcare
Safe | Durable | Low Odor | Floor Coating Solutions
PATIENT ROOMS
The time it takes to turn a patient room is critical. Praetorian has floor coating solutions to make clean time efficient and effective. MightyOne HD, the top coating choice for finishing patient rooms. MightyOne, in patient rooms, typically lasts 24 months, or more. For some customers, results last up to 5 years before applying a second coat of MightyOne. When fast dry or mop-on is required, use Altus Mop-on, for manufactured vinyl floors, and Sentry Mop-on urethane for VCT floors.
SURGICAL SUITES / OPERATING ROOMS
Clean FAST and EASY! This is of extreme importance for all areas in healthcare. In operating rooms that requirement cannot be overstated. Floors are a point of contamination transfer. Consequently, the ability to sanitize an area successfully and fast is critical to the success of a hospital. For faster turn-times, the choice of coatings is clear. The recommended two coatings are, Sentry (for VCT) and Altus (for manufactured floors). Both are extremely chemical and stain resistant. Making Praetorian the best choice for floor protection.
DIALYSIS CENTERS
Dialysis Center’s floors are a challenge to maintain. There is little time for deep cleaning, let alone time to apply ‘long-drying’ type urethane finishes. Two excellent choices for dialysis centers are, Sentry on VCT and Altus on manufactured vinyl (LVT). Both products are extremely chemical resistant, mar resistant, and will resist traffic pattern wear and tear. Additionally, Sentry and Altus will self-heal with a diamond pad polish, resulting in beautiful floor with little effort.
PHYSICAL THERAPY AREAS
It is equally important for physical therapy facilities to maintain their floors with high standards. More facilities have made the switch to rubber floors. To answer the challenge, Praetorian has developed customized solutions for rubber floors; both recycled and composite. For recycled rubber floors, deep clean with CLN-150 and finish with Fortius Seal & Finish. For composite rubber floors clean with CLN-150 Rubber floor cleaner and finish with Altus mop-on. For VCT floors, finish with Sentry Mop-on.
HALLWAYS
Hallways slow down, but never shut down. A fast application and a fast dry time are the only option, when coating the floor. SENTRY for VCT & terrazzo and ALTUS for manufactured vinyl floors are the two obvious choices. Both are fast dry and require only 2-3 coats for maximum, long-term durability, and protection. Both offer scuff and mar resistance beyond your expectations.
LONG-TERM CARE & ASSISTED LIVING
Seniors are very susceptible to falls and illness. Because of this, there is an increasing awareness and accountability for facilities to provide the cleanliness that is critical to the well-being of residents in long-term care facilities. Altus Satin or Semi-gloss is the first choice for all floors in long-term care facilities. Altus low-sheen coatings are an excellent choice for patients that feel vulnerable and fearful to walk on high gloss floors. With Altus you will not sacrifice on quality, it is extremely scratch and mar resistant, and you will not sacrifice on chemical resistance. Altus is extremely resistant to hand sanitizer, stain causing chemicals, and contaminants.
EMERGENCY ROOMS
Emergency rooms, what a challenge! There is no shut-down time in an ER. It lives and breathes 24/7. When time permits, staff sections off areas to work as quickly as possible to ready the room. Praetorian products are designed to accomplish fast strip-outs, deep clean, and finish with a 1-2-3 punch. Start with LiftOFF Remover, designed for tough urethanes and acrylic removal. Followed up with PreCept Neutral Cleaner, a very effective deep cleaner. Then, finish with SENTRY mop-on urethane. Sentry will provide fast clean times with extreme chemical and wear resistance.
ENTRY WAYS
High traffic areas need a tough coating that can stand the steady flow of foot traffic. Sentry is the product of choice for entryways designed with terrazzo floors. Sentry is quickly and easily repairable, highly scratch resistant, and extremely mar resistant. In addition, Sentry withstands the day-to-day grime that is walked in from the streets. Sentry will clean easy and repair quickly.
NURSE STATIONS
Floor coatings will be destroyed faster at the nurse work station than anywhere else in the facility. With the constant foot traffic, fast dry-times are a must have. Use Altus Mop-on, for manufactured vinyl floors, and Sentry Mop-on urethane for VCT floors. Altus and Sentry dry fast, require fewer coats, and will last 6-10 times longer than a typical acrylic floor finish, that would have to be applied with 5-6 coats. To extend the life of Sentry and Altus, always use chair legs and wheels protectors.
CLINICS, EXAMINATION ROOMS, & LABS
Clinics, exam rooms, and labs, all are very high traffic areas. However, all of these area can be shut-down for longer periods of time. This makes MightyOne HD the clear choice. MightyOne will provide the longest wear and the greatest chemical resistance. In addition, MightyOne enables floor cleanliness to be at your highest standards.
CAFETERIAS
The cafeteria handles a fair amount of foot traffic. Moreover, it also will have a fair amount of food spills. Due to the frequency of spills and the need for the resistance to damage, MightyOne HD is the first choice for a long-lasting floor coating. MightyOne is easy to wash, extremely stain resistant, and with proper care, will not need reapplication for 18-24 months.
RESTROOMS
Restrooms are one of the biggest floor challenges of any facility. Most commonly seen restroom floors are ceramic or stone, and the floors in a restroom are very difficult to maintain effectively. Grout lines and textured surfaces become layered with dirt, grime, and odor. The LaMella finishes, are designed specifically to bond to ceramic and stone floors, without etching. Choose from Lamella Mop-on for fast turn-times or LaMella Roll-on for the greatest protection. All LaMella and other urethane coatings are removable with our LaMella Remover.
