Product Overview
This Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) provides a structured approach to managing the hazards associated with epoxy flooring, resinous coatings and anti-slip floor systems, helping you maintain strong WHS compliance on site. It is a comprehensive document covering multiple aspects of Epoxy Flooring Resinous Coatings and Anti-Slip work, from surface preparation and mixing through to application, curing and clean-up.
Activities & Specific Tasks Covered
This document includes specific risk controls for:
- Application of anti-slip treatments to new and existing floor surfaces to reduce slip, trip and fall risks
- Application of anti-slip coatings to internal and external floors in high-traffic or wet areas
- Applying bonding agents and primers to substrates to ensure correct adhesion of epoxy and resinous coatings
- Applying epoxy floor systems, including self-levelling, roll coat and trowel-applied products
- Floor coating activities around plumbing fixtures, drains, penetrations and upturns to maintain falls and drainage
- Safe mixing of epoxy resins, hardeners, pigments and fillers in line with manufacturer’s instructions and SDS requirements
- Working on existing non-slip flooring surfaces, including cleaning, abrading and re-coating procedures
- Selection and use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for chemical exposure, skin contact and respiratory hazards
- Ventilation and control of fumes, vapours and odours in enclosed or poorly ventilated work areas
- Manual handling of resin drums, bags of aggregates and application equipment to minimise sprains and strains
- Management of fire and explosion risks when using flammable solvents, thinners and cleaning agents
- Control of environmental impacts, including containment of spills and management of waste resins and contaminated materials
- Housekeeping, barricading and signage to keep unauthorised persons away from wet coatings and curing floors
Who is this for?
This SWMS is designed for epoxy flooring contractors, resinous coating applicators, commercial painters, industrial floor installers, maintenance teams and site supervisors overseeing flooring works in commercial, industrial and residential environments.
