Engineered for Performance

Why Choose Moisture Mitigation Flooring?

The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a hard hat. Behind the hard hat, a large, semi-transparent pink shield shape contains a white outline of a checkmark. A portion of the shield and checkmark are overlapped by the helmet.
Moisture Control

Manages moisture vapors that rise through the slab and damage floor finishes.

The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a square shape with a wavy border and diagonal lines. A light pink rectangle is visible behind the square. To the right of the rectangle is a pink cylindrical shape with a smaller pink circle on its top surface, representing a paper towel roll.
Protects Investment

Prevents delamination, bubbling, and adhesive breakdown in finished flooring.

The picture depicts a black-and-white icon showing a smaller container in front of a larger container. The smaller container has a line-art shape with a cap on top. The larger container is a rectangular shape with a rounded top and a circular icon on the front that contains three horizontal lines. Two pink, cloud-like shapes with white dots are partially visible at the bottom.
Reduces Risk of Mold

Limits moisture accumulation that can lead to microbial growth.

The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a gear with a wrench laid across its center. The wrench's head replaces the gear's teeth at the top. In the background, a large, semi-transparent pink circle with three horizontal lines is visible, with a portion of the gear overlapping the circle and lines.
Speeds Up Construction

Allows earlier installation of flooring in new builds or renovations.

The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a swatch book with three fanned-out rectangular swatches. Located in the bottom right corner, a large, semi-transparent pink circle with three interlocking white rings is partially overlapping the icon.
Compatible with Floor Systems

Bonds with epoxy, urethane, MMA, and decorative coatings.

Common Sub-Systems

The picture depicts a person in black gloves and boots pouring gray epoxy from a yellow bucket onto an unfinished floor section, creating a smooth, glossy finish. The rest of the room already has a completed gray epoxy floor, with a window and white shades partially visible in the background.
Vapor Barrier Systems
Create a durable, impermeable layer over concrete slabs to stop vapor transmission and prevent flooring failures caused by trapped moisture. Ideal for environments with high humidity or known moisture issues.

Moisture‑Tolerant Primers
Specially formulated primers that bond even to damp substrates, providing a reliable base for subsequent flooring systems. These primers help maintain adhesion and performance in challenging site conditions.

Moisture Testing & Analysis
Comprehensive evaluation of your concrete slab’s moisture levels to identify potential risks before installation. Accurate testing ensures the right system is selected and long‑term problems are avoided.

Where Not to Apply Moisture Mitigation Flooring?

The picture depicts a black line-art icon showing two overlapping documents. The top document has a large checkmark in a circle, and two short stacked horizontal lines at the top with two spread-out lines at the bottom. Behind the documents, a large, semi-transparent pink seal with a white padlock outline is partially visible.
Areas with active water intrusion or flooding
The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a sun with rays. The sun’s center contains a black lightning bolt. A semi-translucent pink sun with rays contains three white lightning bolts in the sun’s center and is slightly overlapped by the black line art.
Surfaces without proper mechanical prep
The picture depicts a black line-art icon of an hourglass with a small triangular shape on the top and a bigger one on the bottom representing sand. To the right of the hourglass, a large, semi-transparent pink circle contains a white circular arrow, pointing clockwise, which is partially overlapping the hourglass.
Over gypsum or non-concrete substrates
The picture depicts a black line-art icon of a document with the left corner folded over, the document contains a simple floor plan with interior walls and a center crosshair. Behind this is a second, semi-transparent pink icon that shows a white outline of a house with an arrow pointing upward and downward on the right of the house and an arrow pointing left and right below the house.
Applications requiring decorative-only coatings with no underlying performance layer

Moisture vapor emissions from concrete can break down adhesives, cause blistering, and lead to mold or mildew under the floor.

We conduct on-site RH or MVER testing to determine if moisture levels exceed safe thresholds.

Yes. It can be applied to existing concrete as long as it’s structurally sound and properly prepped.
