Can I Add Colour or Anti-Slip to My Resin Floor?

← Back to How Do You Apply Resin to a Concrete Floor?

A resin floor doesn’t have to be plain or slippery—it’s easy to personalise the look or boost safety with just a few extra steps. Adding pigment and anti-slip features transforms resin flooring into a practical and attractive solution for any space.

Adding Colour to Resin Floors

Resin floors can be tinted with special pigments that are blended directly into the resin before application. This approach creates a consistent, vibrant colour that remains integral to the floor’s structure. Whether you want a bold modern shade or a subtle neutral, choose high-quality pigments designed for resin systems for best results. Polyurethane topcoats, such as Prolux PU coating, are available in a wide range of colours to match your project’s needs.

Improving Safety with Anti-Slip Additives

For areas exposed to water or high foot traffic, anti-slip is a smart upgrade. This can be achieved by broadcasting fine aggregates like quartz or specially designed flakes onto the final resin layer while it is still tacky, or by mixing anti-slip granules into the resin. Once cured, these inclusions create a textured surface that helps reduce slip hazards while maintaining the floor’s seamless look.

Practical Tips for Customising Resin Floors

• Mix pigments thoroughly for an even colour.
• Always use recommended amounts of anti-slip additives for a balanced, safe surface.
• Test colour and texture on a small area first, especially for decorative or high-profile spaces.
• Select products compatible with your chosen resin, such as Resinstone for concrete floors and driveways.

When This Matters

Adding colour or anti-slip features is especially important in family homes, commercial entrances, changing rooms, or any setting where floor safety and aesthetics are a top priority.
