Flake Epoxy Flooring
Flake epoxy (also called chip or vinyl flake) is Adelaide’s most popular decorative flooring system. Coloured vinyl flakes are broadcast into a wet epoxy base coat, then sealed with a clear topcoat to create a durable, textured surface that hides imperfections and provides excellent slip resistance.
How It Works
The system consists of three layers: a coloured epoxy base coat, a full or partial broadcast of decorative vinyl flakes, and a clear polyurethane or polyaspartic topcoat. The result is a seamless, easy-to-clean surface with a subtle texture.
Best Applications
Residential garages and carports
Commercial showrooms and retail spaces
Laundries, mudrooms, and utility areas
Workshops and hobby spaces
Colour Options
Flake blends come in dozens of colour combinations — from classic granite and quartz to custom blends that match your brand colours. Popular Adelaide choices include Storm (grey/white/black), Outback (tan/brown/cream), and Ocean (blue/grey/white).
Pricing
Flake epoxy systems typically cost $45–$75 per square metre installed, depending on the flake density and topcoat system selected.
