OUR HISTORY

Prior to founding Everlast Epoxy, David Linton had owned both a retail flooring store and a commercial flooring contracting business. When his contract flooring business first started out, his team spent the bulk of their time tearing out tons of two- and three-year-old quarry tile just to replace it with new quarry tile. “It was a vicious cycle for our customers, and we couldn’t help but wonder: if the tile didn’t work the first time, why would it work a SECOND time?” David said.

“Floors should last—it was an idea we could all get behind. But it was clear to us that the solutions on the market at the time weren’t getting the job done. So, we did something about it.”

OUR GOAL: FLOOR BETTER

It started with a simple goal: create a better flooring solution for our restaurant clients. We toured facilities, visited restaurants and checked every option out there, finally deciding that epoxy flooring had the most potential—but it hadn’t yet reached it’s potential. While epoxy resins were clearly tough, the floors we inspected still had suspiciously low lifespans.

Working with our own experts and a team of scientists, we quickly discovered the problem. There weren’t enough resins in finished epoxy floors to provide the "permanent" durability that restaurants needed. To cut costs and line their own pockets, manufacturers were using an excess amount of aggregate and skimping on resins. And those resins? They weren’t designed for commercial kitchen use.

After this discovery, we set out to develop our own resins—specifically for restaurant kitchen use. Our floor formula contains some of the strongest and most expensive resins around. One of the ingredients in the Everlast® Floor is also used in the construction of F-16 fighter jets as a way to add toughness without adding to the weight by using heavy metals such as steel. So as you might imagine, our floors are well armored for some of the toughest conditions imaginable!

Then we created "kits" that contained the correct amounts of resin—and we refused to sell more aggregate than resins call for. We refuse, even though we’ve been asked numerous times, to sell more aggregate than is needed for the resin. Many other companies sell the resins separately – which we feel is a huge mistake because this gives the flooring contractors the ability to skimp on the resins and still get the whole floor covered. We wouldn’t—and we won’t—compromise quality for profit.

Once word got out on how well our Everlast Floor was performing in restaurants, we started getting requests for durable floors for other uses. So we formulated new solutions and added many new flooring products to our line of flooring solutions. And that was the beginning of today’s Everlast Epoxy.
