Rayson specifies the preparation, primer and self-levelling epoxy body coat around your traffic, exposure and operating window—not appearance alone.

The correct system begins with sound concrete, mechanical preparation and compatible priming. The self-smoothing body coat then forms a continuous wearing surface selected around traffic, cleaning, chemicals, static control and UV exposure. Because it is poured rather than rolled, it uses several times the material of a coating — what a 20 kg epoxy kit covers works through the arithmetic.
Self-levelling epoxy—written self-leveling epoxy in many specifications, and often called a self-levelling epoxy screed on tender drawings—is one format within the wider epoxy flooring family. Roller-applied epoxy, self-smoothing epoxy and PU-cement screed answer different duties, so the format follows the floor’s traffic and exposure rather than the wording on the drawing.
Choose the operating condition. The visual, technical priorities and project brief change with it.
Forklift wheel type, turning zones, point loads and traffic frequency influence the system build. The slab and joints still carry the load beneath the coating. For a full logistics floor, continue to warehouse epoxy flooring by traffic route.
A continuous, well-detailed floor reduces unnecessary surface texture and joints. Cleaning method, liquids, drains and transitions still decide the practical specification.
Do not treat conductivity as a topcoat colour. The primer, conductive layer, earthing arrangement, finish and verification method must work together.
Epoxy can change colour under UV exposure. Glazed thresholds and sunlit interiors may require a compatible UV-stable polyurethane finish over the epoxy body coat.
Correct the geometry and movement first. A smooth finish can reveal shortcuts more clearly—it cannot make them disappear.
Mechanically reduce them before the coating build begins.
Assess and pre-fill them with a compatible repair route.
Determine whether they are static or moving before repair.
Correct drainage geometry rather than hiding it below resin.
A thinner coating route that follows more of the prepared substrate profile.
A continuous body coat for a smoother, more uniform industrial wearing surface.
A different chemistry and heavier screed route for demanding wet-process exposure.
| Decision | Roller epoxy | Self-smoothing epoxy | PU-cement screed |
|---|---|---|---|
| System form | Thin roller-applied coating | Heavier continuous body coat | Heavier screed build |
| Surface character | Follows more substrate profile | Smoother, more uniform finish | Selected around process and texture duty |
| Selection basis | Substrate, traffic, cleaning, chemistry, temperature and project programme | ||
Each layer has a job. The illustration explains system logic—not a universal project specification.

Open the librarySelf-levelling epoxy—also written self-leveling epoxy, and often specified as a self-levelling epoxy screed—is a resin flooring system applied as a continuous body coat over prepared and primed concrete. It produces a smoother, heavier-build finish than a typical roller-applied epoxy coating.
The terms overlap on Singapore tender drawings. "Epoxy screed" is used loosely for any heavier trowel- or rake-applied epoxy build, self-smoothing systems included, so confirm which format is meant before pricing. A PU-cement screed such as Rayson PurScreed PC70 is a different chemistry again, intended for hot wash-down and severe process exposure rather than as an epoxy alternative.
No. The coating smooths within its applied layer, but it does not correct slab geometry, high spots, deep hollows, failed falls or structural movement. These conditions must be assessed and corrected during preparation.
A roller-applied epoxy is a thinner coating that follows more of the substrate profile. A self-smoothing system forms a heavier, more uniform seamless layer. The correct choice depends on traffic, finish expectations, substrate condition and operating exposure.
It can be considered for production and logistics floors, but the complete system must be selected from wheel type, turning load, traffic frequency, impact, substrate condition and maintenance. Confirm the specified build against the current product TDS.
It is a common direction for main forklift aisles and other routes needing a seamless, cleanable wearing surface, while lighter picking and storage areas may be served by a roller-applied epoxy instead. A warehouse is therefore specified zone by zone rather than as one build across the whole floor.
A standard self-smoothing epoxy is not automatically an ESD-control floor. Where static control is required, use a designed conductive system such as Rayson StaticGuard CX90 and verify the complete build-up and testing requirements.
Epoxy can change colour under UV exposure. Sunlit interior zones may require a compatible UV-stable finish such as Rayson UraForce SB72, while exterior exposure may require a different system. Confirm compatibility in the relevant TDS.
Cost depends on area, slab condition, repairs, preparation, system build, access and the available work window. A meaningful quotation starts with floor photos, approximate area, operating exposure and programme.
Return-to-service depends on the selected products, temperature, ventilation, site conditions and traffic duty. Use the current technical data sheets for published application and curing information, then confirm the project programme with Rayson.
