What Is Quartz Broadcast Floor Coating?
Concrete Shield Coatings Inc. installs high-performance quartz broadcast floor coating systems that deliver superior slip resistance, durability, and chemical protection for demanding commercial and industrial environments.
Quartz broadcast flooring is a seamless, multi-layer coating system that combines colored quartz aggregates with high-performance epoxy or polyaspartic resins.
Why Choose Quartz Broadcast?
Unlike standard epoxy or painted concrete, quartz broadcast systems offer:
- Superior slip resistance – textured surface provides excellent traction, even when wet
- Outstanding durability – withstands heavy foot traffic, rolling loads, and impacts
- Chemical resistance – ideal for exposure to harsh cleaners, oils, and chemicals
- Custom aesthetics – choose from dozens of quartz color blends
Key Benefits of Quartz Broadcast Flooring
Why commercial and industrial facilities choose quartz broadcast.
Slip Resistance
Textured quartz surface increases traction, reducing slip-and-fall accidents in wet environments like kitchens, pool decks, and locker rooms.
Impact & Abrasion Resistance
Double broadcast systems withstand heavy foot traffic, dropped tools, rolling carts, and equipment without showing wear.
Chemical Resistance
Holds up to harsh cleaning chemicals, degreasers, oils, and other substances common in commercial settings.
Easy Maintenance
Seamless surface with no grout lines means no place for dirt, bacteria, or mold to hide. Simply sweep, mop, or hose down.
UV Stability
UV-stable aggregates and topcoats maintain color without yellowing, even with outdoor exposure.
Ideal Applications for Quartz Broadcast
Quartz broadcast excels in environments demanding slip resistance, durability, and sanitary conditions.
Commercial Kitchens
Restaurants, cafeterias, and food prep areas where slip resistance and sanitation are critical.
Locker Rooms & Gyms
Athletic facilities and school locker rooms with wet conditions and high traffic.
Healthcare Facilities
Hospitals, clinics, and labs requiring seamless, easy-to-sanitize flooring.
Veterinary Clinics
Animal hospitals needing chemical-resistant, easy-clean surfaces.
Manufacturing Plants
Production floors and warehouses with heavy equipment and foot traffic.
Breweries & Wineries
Production areas requiring chemical and temperature tolerance.
Auto Service Centers
Service bays exposed to oils and chemicals. See also: Garage Floors
Salons & Spas

Our Quartz Broadcast Installation Process
Professional quartz broadcast installation requires careful preparation and precise technique. Here's what to expect.
2
Prime Coat Application
Apply penetrating primer to seal the substrate and ensure optimal adhesion for the coating system.
3
First Quartz Broadcast
Apply base coat and broadcast quartz aggregates to saturation. Allow to cure before proceeding.
4
Second Broadcast (Double System)
For double broadcast systems: apply grout coat and second layer of quartz to rejection for maximum durability.
5
Topcoat & Final Cure
Apply clear or pigmented topcoat for protection and desired sheen. Final cure before returning space to service.

Quartz Broadcast FAQs
Common questions about quartz broadcast floor coatings, installation, and maintenance.
A quartz broadcast floor coating is a seamless flooring system where colored quartz aggregates are broadcast into wet epoxy or polyaspartic resin, then sealed with a clear topcoat. This creates a highly durable, slip-resistant surface.
Professional quartz broadcast flooring typically ranges from $8 to $15 per square foot installed. Cost depends on concrete condition, single vs. double broadcast system, and total square footage. Check our service areas page.
A typical double broadcast quartz installation takes 3-5 days. For polyaspartic-based systems, installation can be completed faster with quicker return to service.
Yes. Properly installed quartz broadcast flooring meets requirements for USDA and FDA-regulated food processing facilities. The seamless, non-porous surface is easy to sanitize.
With proper installation and maintenance, quartz broadcast flooring can last 15-20+ years in commercial environments.
Yes, with UV-stable topcoats. Quartz systems work great for exterior walkways, patios, and breezeways. For pool areas, see our pool deck coatings.
For residential garage floors, flake epoxy systems are typically better—more cost-effective and excellent for typical garage use. Quartz is designed for heavy commercial environments.
