Maintaining absolute hygiene and durability in demanding commercial and industrial environments, especially those handling food, beverages, or potable water, requires a flooring solution that stands up to constant use and chemical exposure. Megapoxy 132 provides that assurance. It delivers a seamless, high-strength coating engineered for critical areas where cleanliness, resilience, and compliance are non-negotiable.
Megapoxy 132 is a low viscosity, two-component, solvent-free epoxy floor coating formulated for critical commercial and industrial settings. It provides an exceptional balance of strength, abrasion resistance, and chemical resilience. Its solvent-free nature and low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) mean it will not taint foodstuffs, making it ideal for facilities with stringent hygiene standards, including food processing plants, pharmaceutical industries, hospital kitchens, and areas in contact with potable water.
Megapoxy 132 features a simple 2 Parts A to 1 Part B mix ratio by volume, ensuring consistent performance when accurately measured and thoroughly mixed. At 25°C, it offers a 30-minute work time, allowing for controlled application over larger areas. The coating can be applied by brush, roller, squeegee, or airless spray. For custom finishes, fine aggregates can be incorporated to create robust screeds or broadcast between coats for a non-slip surface. Always clean tools immediately after use with Megapoxy Thinners to prevent hardened residue.
This coating excels as a high-performance topcoat for:
Megapoxy 132 consistently serves as the final, critical topcoat in high-performance flooring systems. It is applied after appropriate primers and base coats have been installed. In commercial build-ups, it often follows systems incorporating moisture barriers such as Everflex VBS water-based Epoxy, and then Megapoxy LVS as a low-viscosity primer, and Megapoxy MC as an epoxy base coat. This layering ensures optimal adhesion, a level substrate, and maximises the protective qualities of the final Megapoxy 132 layer against wear, impact, and chemical attack.
Megapoxy 132 holds AS 4020:2018 Potable Water Approval, verifying its safety for direct contact with drinking water. This certification, along with its conformity to Department of Primary Industries (DPI) requirements for food processing establishments, provides critical assurance for use in sensitive environments where non-tainting and hygienic performance are paramount.
While other Megapoxy products like Megapoxy 154 and Megapoxy CT5 are engineered for specialized roles such as structural bonding or high-strength grouting, Megapoxy 132 is specifically designed as a high-performance, low viscosity epoxy coating. It functions as a protective and decorative finish, which can be clear or pigmented, or combined with fine aggregates for screeds and non-slip surfaces. This distinct focus ensures it meets the demanding requirements for durable, hygienic floor surfaces where its siblings might serve other structural or repair functions.
Yes, Megapoxy 132 is suitable for these environments. It conforms to Department of Primary Industries (DPI) requirements for coatings in establishments such as abattoirs and will not taint foodstuffs.
Yes, this coating holds AS 4020:2018 Potable Water Approval. It can be used for structures in contact with drinking water.
Yes, all existing coatings must be fully removed. Applying Megapoxy 132 over old paint or coatings will result in inferior bond strengths compared to direct application on a properly prepared substrate.
The work time for Megapoxy 132 is 30 minutes at 25°C. For general applications, the minimum cure time is 24 hours at 25°C, while thin film cures in 4-6 hours at this temperature.

The Engineering Challenge: The floor must be durable enough for forklift traffic in the warehouse, yet stylish enough for a customer-facing showroom. Application must be efficient, especially in hot weather conditions.
The System-Based Solution with Megapoxy 132: After mechanically grinding the concrete, apply two coats of Megapoxy 132 Grey. To manage heat and increase efficiency, thin the first coat with 10% Megapoxy Thinners and apply via airless spray during the cooler morning hours. Apply the second coat the following day. This system, as used at Vittoria Coffee, delivers a rapid application and a seamless, high-gloss, and robust finish.
Best Practice Note: In high ambient temperatures, storing the epoxy in a cooler environment before mixing can help to maximise the 30-minute working time.
The Engineering Challenge: An existing concrete floor is cracked, porous, and difficult to clean, posing a hygiene risk. A new, food-safe, seamless, and non-slip surface is required with minimal disruption to operations.
The System-Based Solution with Megapoxy 132: Prepare the concrete by grinding and repairing any major defects. Apply a base coat of Megapoxy 132. While the coat is wet, broadcast a fine, non-slip aggregate. Once cured, sweep off the excess aggregate and apply a final top coat of Megapoxy 132 to seal the system. The Nil VOC formula is safe for application in a food environment, and the resulting floor is hygienic, durable, and compliant.
Best Practice Note: Proper surface preparation is non-negotiable. Grinding the concrete to remove all previous coatings and laitance is essential to achieve the >3 MPa bond strength required for long-term performance.
Use disposable rubber gloves to protect hands during application and cleaning operations.
Refer to the Megapoxy 132 Safety Data Sheet for detailed first aid measures.
Store product kits in a cool, dry place. Clean mixing implements and working tools with Megapoxy Thinners.
Correct surface preparation is critical for Megapoxy 132 adhesion and performance.
Surface prep: Concrete must be free of grease and oil. Clean with an industrial heavy-duty degreaser if required. Remove surface laitance by mechanical abrasion such as scabbling, grit blasting, or grinding. If mechanical abrasion is not feasible, acid etch using a 1:1 mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and water, spread at 0.5 litre per square metre. Allow to react for 10 minutes, then wash thoroughly and scrub to remove loose sand. Allow to dry for 24 hours. The concrete surface must be dry for maximum adhesion.
Primer: Not required.
Surface prep: Grit blast to AS 1627.2.2002. If grit blasting is not possible, mechanically abrade the surface to a clean, bright metal finish. Degrease the surface by flooding with an industrial-grade degreaser after abrasion. Note that wire brushing alone is not satisfactory and provides minimal adhesion.
Primer: Not required.
Surface prep: All existing coatings must be fully removed. Bonding to coated surfaces will result in inferior bond strengths compared to direct application on a prepared substrate. For concrete, this involves flame-cleaning, mechanical treatment with a scutching tool, diamond grinding, or scabbling to remove paint. For metals, remove all paint and/or galvanising using a quality paint stripper, then grit blast or grind to a bright metal finish.
Primer: Not required.
