💡 1️⃣ Acrylic-Based Floor Waxes — Great All-Around Protection

Acrylic floor waxes are one of the most common and versatile finishes used in commercial and institutional settings. They deliver a bright, reflective shine and are easy to apply and maintain.

Because they dry quickly, they’re ideal for spaces that can’t afford long downtime — such as offices, schools, or retail areas. However, they do require more frequent buffing to maintain their luster in heavy-use environments.

Best for: Offices, schools, and retail spaces looking for consistent shine and easy upkeep.

💪 2️⃣ Polyurethane-Enhanced Floor Waxes — Built for Durability

Polyurethane waxes are designed for maximum durability and protection. These finishes contain polyurethane additives that strengthen the wax film, creating a harder, more resilient surface.

They resist scratches, scuffs, and chemical wear, making them perfect for industrial environments and shop floors — especially in areas like Nisku, Leduc, or Fort Saskatchewan where heavy equipment and forklifts are common.

Best for: Warehouses, shops, and industrial spaces that need a durable, long-lasting finish.

✨ 3️⃣ High-Solids Floor Finishes — Maximum Gloss, Fewer Coats

High-solids waxes contain a higher percentage of solids per gallon, meaning fewer coats are needed to achieve deep shine and long-lasting protection.

They provide a stunning, mirror-like finish and respond beautifully to high-speed burnishing, making them a great option for clients who want a premium appearance.

Best for: Showrooms, retail stores, and corporate offices in Edmonton, St. Albert, and Sherwood Park.
