Greenhouse Facility & Agricultural Floors

Greenhouses are demanding environments that require specialized flooring systems to ensure durability, hygiene, and safety. Whether it’s a commercial greenhouse, propagation room, or vertical farming facility, the daily routine includes frequent watering, wash-downs, high humidity, and fluctuating temperatures—all of which can quickly degrade standard concrete flooring. These conditions lead to cracks, exposed aggregate, and pooling water, creating breeding grounds for mould and bacteria, as well as dangerous slip hazards in high-traffic areas.

Greenhouse operations—especially those producing food-grade crops or plants for pharmaceutical and retail purposes—are subject to increasingly strict regulatory standards. Agencies such as the FDA, EPA, and CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) require surfaces in food-adjacent environments to be seamless, non-porous, and easy to sanitize. Exposed cracks and rough concrete can harbour contaminants that compromise both crop safety and regulatory compliance. For this reason, durable, waterproof, and hygienic flooring is essential for maintaining clean and efficient growing conditions.

Moisture control is another massive challenge. Pooling water from irrigation and condensation is a common issue, and without proper drainage solutions, it can damage floors and foster microbial growth. That’s why professionally installed slopes, trench drains, and seamless wall-to-floor transitions are key. Applied Industrial Flooring offers custom drainage solutions, integrated cove bases, and protective wall systems that help prevent bacterial buildup and maintain a clean grow space.

For greenhouse owners seeking both form and function, we also install decorative yet durable floors for adjacent areas like retail storefronts, reception zones, offices, locker rooms, and packaging areas. These spaces can benefit from resinous epoxy or urethane coatings that offer aesthetic appeal while standing up to heavy foot traffic, chemical exposure, and moisture.

Our resinous flooring systems also offer performance benefits unique to greenhouses: high reflectivity helps bounce light back onto plant canopies, enhancing photosynthesis, improving energy efficiency, and promoting healthier, more robust plant growth. Our quick-curing, low-VOC, anti-microbial floor systems are compliant with EPA and other environmental regulations and are designed to be easy to clean and maintain.
