Project Overview
Heav’nly Donuts Factory & Warehouse in Methuen, Massachusetts required slip-resistant flooring for its new commercial kitchen and storage areas that met strict hygiene standards and could withstand heavy foot and machinery traffic.

The Process
  • Step 1
    Coves: 4-inch coves installed at walls for easy cleaning and compliance.
  • Step 2
    Patching: Existing concrete patched and low spots leveled.
  • Step 3
    Base & Grout: Durable Polycrete layers applied for strength and long-lasting protection.
  • Step 4
    Top Coat: Seamless, slip-resistant Armor Top Satin applied for safety and hygiene.
  • Step 5
    Patch & Prime: Surface patched and primed for high-performance coating areas (4,268 sqft)
  • Step 6
    Grout: Durable layer applied with added texture for slip resistance.
  • Step 7
    Topcoat: HTS-100 with Duragrip applied to create a smooth, high-performance floor.

Black Bear's Solution

Black Bear Seamless Flooring leveled the uneven concrete slab and installed a durable urethane cement floor, preparing Heav’nly Donuts Factory & Warehouse for reliable, efficient operation from day one. Slip-resistant and built to withstand chemicals and moisture, the flooring enhances safety, maintains hygiene standards and reduces future maintenance — earning strong client confidence pre-opening. Black Bear Seamless Flooring recommended a urethane cement coating to improve durability, reduce maintenance and enhance safety and compliance. To address uneven surfaces, the team leveled the floor with Polycrete SL, a self-leveling urethane cement, before applying the final durable, slip-resistant coating.
