Precidium™ Floor Coating SystemLookS great. LaStS Longer. SaveS money.

Exclusively distributed by DuPont

Looks great. Lasts longer. Saves money.Unlike traditional rubber or vinyl, Precidium™ is a multi-layer

sprayed-on coating that can be applied easily to virtually

any vertical or horizontal surface, creating a lightweight,

seamless and impermeable membrane.

The layers of this unique system combine to deliver a durable

flooring system that is aesthetically pleasing, easy to maintain

and meets the highest standards for fire, smoke, toxicity

and friction.

reduced maintenance costs Precidium™ is easy to clean and maintain for a pleasant

commuter experience. Its seamless nature means dirt can’t

collect between panels. And, it won’t show the wear and tear

from thousands of commuters due to its excellent abrasion

and impact resistance.

Unlike rubber and vinyl systems that must be replaced if

they are damaged, Precidium™ can be easily repaired using

a process similar to that used for hardwood flooring. Plus,

time-consuming tasks of molding, cutting, fitting and handling

materials are completely eliminated. This not only saves cost,

but also minimizes asset downtime.

Increased durabilityPrecidium™ features exceptional abrasion and impact

resistance, helping to extend the life of the floor and

decreasing maintenance costs.

The seamless finish also plays a key role in the long-lasting

nature of the Precidium™ Floor Coating System by preventing

water and dirt from penetrating the surface and causing

adhesion failure or corrosion of the substrate, a common

problem with traditional rubber and vinyl flooring systems.

enhanced design flexibility Available in a range of solid colors or with optional splash

accents for a designer finish, the Precidium™ Floor Coating

System can be easily customized to meet your specific needs.

For example, logos and safety markings can be embedded in

the floor coating.

Precidium™ is a multi-layer sprayed-on coating that can be applied to vertical or horizontal surfaces to create a seamless and impermeable membrane.

Precidium™ Floor Coating System, exclusively distributed by DuPont, offers transit authorities an advanced floor coating system for trains and buses that is superior to traditional flooring in terms of performance, aesthetics and ease of maintenance.
