Methyl Methacrylate resin systems that cure in hours, not days. When downtime costs more than the floor, MMA delivers — with full traffic capability in just 2-4 hours.
Where MMA Excels
MMA flooring is the solution when conventional systems aren't fast enough. Its unique chemistry allows installation in conditions that would halt other flooring projects.
24/7 Operations
Food processing, pharmaceutical, logistics — facilities that cannot shut down. Weekend or overnight installation.
Cold Storage
Cures at temperatures as low as -30°C. Freezer floors, cold chain facilities, refrigerated warehouses.
Retail Renovation
Mall renovations, supermarket refits — install overnight, open next morning.
Healthcare
Healthcare and sensitive refurbishments only with careful ventilation, odor planning and phased access control.
Speed Without Compromise
MMA's rapid cure doesn't mean shortcuts on preparation. Surface prep follows the same rigorous standards as epoxy systems.
- Shot blasting — Preferred method for optimal surface profile. Can proceed immediately after
- Diamond grinding — Alternative where shot blasting isn't feasible
- Moisture tolerance — More forgiving than epoxy, but excess moisture still requires management
- Cold conditions — No heating required for sub-zero installations
- Rapid primer cure — MMA primers cure in 30-60 minutes, enabling same-day system completion
System Architecture
MMA systems follow a similar layered approach to epoxy, but with dramatically faster cure times at each stage.
Reactive Primer
MMA-based primer penetrates and seals substrate. Cures in 30-60 minutes at 20°C, proportionally faster at higher temperatures.
Body Coat
Self-leveling or broadcast MMA resin. Aggregate broadcast for slip resistance if required. Cures in 1-2 hours.
Seal Coat
Clear or pigmented topcoat. UV-stable aliphatic formulations for exterior or high-light applications. Full cure in 1-2 hours.
System Variants
MMA is available in multiple configurations to match your specific application requirements:
Self-Leveling
Smooth, seamless finish. 2-3mm. Rapid installation for minimal downtime.
Quartz Broadcast
Colored quartz for durability and slip resistance. 3-4mm total build.
Textured
Textured aggregate finish for wet areas, ramps, and exterior applications.
Decorative Flake
Color flake broadcast for aesthetic appeal. Common in retail and commercial.
Key Advantages
- Rapid Cure — Designed for short shutdown windows; traffic timing depends on system build-up and site temperature.
- Cold Temperature Cure — Installs at -30°C to +35°C. No heating required for cold storage or winter work.
- UV Stability — Aliphatic MMA doesn't yellow or chalk. Suitable for exterior applications.
- Chemical Resistance — Excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, and many solvents.
- Flexibility — More flexible than epoxy, bridges hairline cracks, handles substrate movement.
- Reduced Downtime — The real advantage is phased work planning when a long shutdown is not realistic.
Good fit
Cold storage, retail refits, repair corridors, 24/7 facilities and phased projects where downtime is more expensive than material cost.
Not the first choice
Occupied spaces with poor ventilation, odor-sensitive operations, unknown substrates or projects where standard epoxy downtime is acceptable.
Inspect first
Ventilation, odor tolerance, temperature, substrate profile, moisture, access control and exact handover time.
Maintenance Protocol
MMA floors deliver performance comparable to epoxy with significantly faster installation. Maintenance is straightforward.
Daily
Sweep or auto-scrub to remove debris. Spot clean spills as they occur.
Weekly
Machine scrub with neutral pH cleaner. Rinse thoroughly.
Quarterly
Deep clean and inspection. Check high-wear areas for topcoat condition.
As Needed
Rapid recoating possible — MMA topcoat can be applied with minimal prep.
