The Importance of Polyurea Coatings in Animal Kennels: A Sanitary, Durable, and Customizable Solution
The Perfect Choice
Animal kennels, whether for private pet boarding, veterinary clinics, or commercial breeding facilities, require a durable, sanitary, and easy-to-maintain flooring solution. Traditional flooring materials, such as concrete or tile, are prone to moisture absorption, bacterial buildup, and deterioration over time, leading to an unsanitary environment that increases the risk of illness for animals. This is why polyurea/polyaspartic coatings from Rock Solid Surfacing provide an ideal flooring solution for animal kennels.
Our advanced polyurea coatings create a seamless, non-porous, and highly durable surface that is resistant to scratches, stains, moisture, and bacterial growth. This not only makes cleaning easier but also helps prevent the spread of common kennel-related illnesses such as kennel cough, parvovirus, and fungal infections. Additionally, polyurea coatings can be customized with colors, patterns, and logos, adding a professional and branded look to any kennel facility.
The Key Benefits of Polyurea Coatings in Kennels
1. A Seamless and Sanitary Surface for Disease Prevention
Kennels are high-traffic environments where animals frequently interact, making hygiene and disease control top priorities. Traditional flooring, such as concrete or tile, has grout lines, cracks, and pores where urine, feces, and bacteria can accumulate. Over time, this buildup creates odors and fosters the growth of pathogens.
Polyurea coatings form a completely sealed and seamless surface, eliminating places for bacteria and viruses to hide. This helps prevent the spread of kennel cough, canine influenza, ringworm, and other
highly contagious illnesses that thrive in damp, unsanitary conditions.

2. Easy to Clean and Maintain
One of the biggest challenges in maintaining a kennel is constant cleaning. Traditional flooring materials often require harsh scrubbing, special cleaning solutions, or pressure washing to remove dirt, dander, and bodily fluids.

Polyurea-coated floors are waterproof, stain-resistant, and chemical-resistant, allowing for quick and effortless cleaning. Kennel staff can simply use a hose, mop, or disinfectant spray to sanitize the surface, ensuring a clean and odor-free environment at all times.
Additionally, since polyurea does not absorb moisture, it dries significantly faster than porous materials, reducing slip hazards for both animals and employees.

3. Superior Durability Against Scratches and Wear
Kennels experience constant wear and tear, especially from dogs running, digging, and scratching at the floor. Many traditional flooring options, including epoxy coatings, vinyl, and bare concrete, degrade over time due to scratches, chips, and stains.

Polyurea/polyaspartic coatings are four times stronger than epoxy and highly resistant to abrasions, impacts, and heavy use. Unlike other materials, polyurea floors will not crack, peel, or deteriorate over time, making them an ideal long-term investment for animal care facilities.

4. Odor Control and Chemical Resistance
Odor buildup is another major concern for kennel owners. When animal waste or cleaning chemicals seep into porous flooring, lingering smells become difficult to eliminate.
Polyurea coatings prevent this by forming a completely sealed, non-porous barrier that blocks odors and prevents chemical damage. Whether exposed to urine, disinfectants, or veterinary cleaning solutions, a polyurea-coated floor remains intact and odor-free, keeping kennels fresh and welcoming for pets and their owners.

5. Custom Branding and Aesthetic Appeal
A professionally designed kennel should not only be functional but also visually appealing. Polyurea coatings can be customized with company logos, color schemes, and decorative patterns, creating a high-end, branded look that reinforces a professional image.
At Rock Solid Surfacing, we offer custom floor graphics using high-resolution images embedded beneath protective polyurea coatings. These graphics remain vibrant, scratch-resistant, and easy to clean, allowing businesses to showcase their branding without compromising durability.

6. Faster Installation with Minimal Downtime
Unlike traditional flooring options that require days or even weeks to install and cure, polyurea coatings cure rapidly. Our coatings set within hours, allowing kennels to resume operations quickly with minimal downtime.
This is especially beneficial for high-traffic boarding facilities and veterinary clinics that cannot afford extended closures.
