Automotive Showroom Flooring
Automotive showroom flooring needs to be both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional. Several flooring systems cater to these needs.
Epoxy flooring is a popular choice due to its durability, resistance to chemicals and staining from oil and grease, and its ability to be customized with colors and patterns to match the brand. Polished concrete offers a sleek, modern look that is also incredibly durable and easy to maintain, requiring minimal upkeep and withstanding heavy foot traffic. Tile flooring, specifically porcelain or ceramic, provides a sophisticated appearance and is available in a wide array of styles, offering excellent resistance to water and stains, although it can be more prone to cracking under extreme weight or impact.
Finally, carpeting or carpet tiles can be strategically used in customer waiting areas or offices to provide comfort and noise reduction, although they require regular cleaning to maintain a professional appearance in a showroom setting. The optimal choice depends on the desired aesthetic, budget, and anticipated level of wear and tear.

Automotive Showroom Flooring
Automotive showroom flooring is more than just a place to hold the vehicles being sold. It is a place to paint those vehicles in their most positive light and get the customer to feel the emotions you want associated with your brand.
Whether that is a sense of security and approachability or something sleek and modern, your entire auto or truck dealership should reflect it. That includes your showroom floors. While you may think that the customer won’t notice the floor, that’s not true, with a Duraguard decorative automotive floor they will!!

Obviously, durability is an important component when choosing automotive showroom flooring. Not only will people be in and out of the room all the time directly from the outdoors, you’ll need to move vehicles around as you change your stock or your layout. The floor you choose needs to be able to stand up to this kind of heavy use without taking damage and needing to be replaced immediately.
However, plain concrete or similar industrial automotive Showroom flooring may be great for a warehouse, but it simply won’t cut it for your automotive showroom floors. Appearance is just as important as durability in this case. You want a floor that is in line with your branding and that looks polished and finished without taking attention away from the vehicles. Smooth, seamless, modern-looking surfaces are the current trend for the contemporary automotive showroom floor.
