High-performance coatings are for environments where structures and surfaces require enhanced abrasion, chemical resistance, and additional durability. In some cases, the layers may protect surfaces from excessive use and abuse—for example, flooring in an automotive shop garage or on the steps, railings, and hallways of a large sports arena. In other cases, they may protect surfaces from corrosion caused by simple exposure to the elements or aggressive environments that may include corrosive chemicals. Regardless of the case, high-performance coatings enhance the overall durability of whatever they coat. This additional protection ensures the safety of the people who come into contact with the structures and the immediate physical environment surrounding the structures.
