Thanks to recent changes in legislation, the growth of the cannabis industry has been explosive. Estimates report that the industry will even overshadow established industries in terms of economic impact. With state-by-state changes occurring, many cannabis growing facilities are emerging across the country and internationally.
Cannabis grow rooms, or greenhouses—many with vertical, soil-free hydroponic gardens– are driving a need for large temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor environments that can support production of a variety of cannabis-infused products.

Particularly because of the natural sunlight that comes pouring in—even if it is not daily—energy costs can be dramatically reduced. It has been established that the photosynthesis in greenhouses can be double, on average, and produce more vibrant, healthier plants. This type of benefits have made greenhouses and grow rooms particularly popular in the cannabis growing industry.
Whether you are establishing a greenhouse or a grow room, however, the issues regarding flooring are essentially the same, as the substrate is most commonly a concrete slab. Consider the following:
Epoxies and other fluid-applied resins are a smart way to coat and protect concrete slabs. When supplied by a quality manufacturer, they can be highly durable, resistant to abrasion and stains, and can be customized to:
Withstand exposure to harsh chemicals and ongoing wet conditions
Further, high quality resinous flooring requires no waxing, buffing or polishing, making maintenance quick and inexpensive. This helps make resinous flooring an optimal choice for cannabis growing facilities.
