What Are Hybrid Stone Flakes?

Hybrid stone flakes are made from a blend of paint aggregates that are designed to mimic natural stone. The flakes are a combination of pigmented materials, including epoxy chips, decorative vinyl color chips, and resin, which create natural stone colors. This mixture is then cured and broken into small, irregular pieces that form the flakes.
 

Hybrid stone flakes provide a stunning, durable finish for concrete floors with the look and texture of stone. They’re great for garages, industrial spaces, grocery stores, or any other high-traffic areas and provide an attractive, durable finish that stands up well to wear and tear.
 

Why Use Hybrid Stone Flakes for Your Floor Coating?

Adding hybrid stone flakes to your floor does more than just add a decorative touch. Here are a few of the reasons they're so popular:
 

• Appearance of Natural Stone: Hybrid stone flake flooring from Duratek can help you mimic the look of natural stone, without the high price tag or the worry of chipping and scratching. They come in beautiful shades like Blue Granite, Granite Flake, and other custom color options, allowing you to replicate the elegance of real stone surfaces.

• Complete Customization: Choose from a wide range of flake colors, sizes, and unique blends. With the ability to completely customize your blend, you can create pre-engineered floors that will have the exact look and texture you want.

• Durability and Functionality: Hybrid stone flakes are designed to withstand heavy use, making them perfect for high-traffic areas such as warehouses, industrial floors, and garages. You can count on them not only to protect your concrete floor, but to improve its appearance as well.
• Unique Product with Unique Properties: Unlike traditional paint chips, hybrid stone flakes are designed with unique properties that offer superior adhesion, flexibility, and resistance to wear and tear. Your floor will have a beautiful finish that will last for many years to come.

How to Use Hybrid Stone Flakes

For the best results, follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Surface: Clean and remove any existing coatings, dirt, or debris from the concrete surface to get the best adhesion.
2. Apply the Base Coat: Once the floor has been prepared, apply a high-quality epoxy base coat. This will create a smooth, even surface which is needed so the hybrid stone flakes can adhere properly.
3. Broadcast the Flakes: While the base coat is still wet, toss the hybrid stone flakes by hand to scatter them evenly across the floor.  You'll want to choose flakes that match the desired look, whether it’s a Blue Granite pattern or a custom blend.
4. Seal the Floor: After the flakes have set, apply a clear topcoat to seal and protect them. The topcoat will not only emphasize the beauty of the flakes but helps them to remain vibrant and durable.
