Factory epoxy floors are expensive and must stay clean, but the wrong trolley wheels scratch them, leave black marks or make them peel, leading to repeated repair costs.
The Real Causes
- Black rubber leaves marks: the black rubber transfers colour onto the floor as hard-to-remove streaks
- Steel/nylon wheels scratch: the hard material presses into and scrapes the epoxy surface until it scars and peels
- Small/hard wheels hit hard: dropping into floor gaps causes impacts that crack the floor surface
The Hidden Costs
A damaged epoxy floor must be closed off for repair, costing materials and labour and disrupting production; in food/pharma plants, dirty marks also affect hygiene standards.
How IRONMAX Solves This
- Non-marking PU tread: no colour transfer to the floor — ideal for epoxy floors and cleanrooms
- A soft surface that protects floors: doesn't scratch or scrape the floor like hard wheels
- Larger wheels soften impacts: the 6-inch size rolls over gaps smoothly, reducing floor impacts
Best for: food, pharmaceutical and electronics factories and warehouses whose epoxy floors must stay clean and unscratched
