Quick answer: Epoxy floor paint (a roller-applied epoxy coating, 200–300 micron) costs about ৳60–80 per sq ft in Bangladesh when supplied and applied by a specialist. It suits light-traffic areas such as stores, offices, showrooms and light workshops. For forklifts, heavy trolleys, pharma or food areas, a thicker system such as self-leveling epoxy (2–3 mm) or PU concrete is the better investment.

Many people search for “epoxy floor paint” when they want a cleaner, dust-free, easy-to-wash concrete floor. The term is often used for very different products – from a thin decorative paint to a heavy-duty industrial coating. This guide explains what epoxy floor paint really is, what it costs in Bangladesh, where it works, where it fails, and how it is applied properly.
What Is Epoxy Floor Paint?
Epoxy floor paint is a two-component coating – an epoxy resin (Part A) and a hardener (Part B) – that is mixed on site and rolled onto prepared concrete. When it cures, it forms a hard, glossy, chemical-resistant film that seals the concrete and stops dusting.
It is different from ordinary enamel or acrylic floor paint. Ordinary paint simply dries; epoxy cures through a chemical reaction, so it bonds much more strongly to concrete and resists oil, water and cleaning chemicals far better.
Epoxy Floor Paint Price in Bangladesh (2026)
The table below shows indicative supply-and-application prices for common epoxy and related systems. Prices change with raw-material and shipping costs, site condition and project size, so always ask for a site-specific quotation.
| System | Typical Thickness | Best For | Price (BDT / sq ft) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epoxy floor paint (roller coat) | 200–300 micron | Stores, offices, showrooms, light workshops | ৳ 60–80 |
| Epoxy self-leveling (Dupoxy SL) | 2–3 mm | Pharma, electronics, clean rooms, showrooms | ৳ 200 (3 mm) |
| Epoxy mortar / screed | 4–6 mm | Heavy-duty production floors | ৳ 230–250 |
| PU concrete (Ducrete MF) | 3–4 mm | Food, beverage, wet and thermal-shock areas | ৳ 140–180 |

What Affects the Cost?
- Floor condition: cracks, oil stains, old paint or a weak surface need extra repair and grinding.
- Moisture: damp or ground-floor slabs may need a moisture-tolerant primer.
- Number of coats and thickness: one coat is cheaper but wears out much faster.
- Area size: large areas usually get a better rate per sq ft than small rooms.
- Colour, anti-slip finish or line marking.
Where Epoxy Floor Paint Works – and Where It Does Not
Good choice for
- Offices, corridors, stores and showrooms
- Light assembly and packing areas
- Parking areas with light car traffic
- Upgrading a dusty concrete floor on a limited budget
Choose a thicker system for
- Forklift and heavy trolley traffic – use self-leveling or mortar epoxy
- Food, beverage and wet process areas – use PU concrete flooring
- Hot-water washing, steam or thermal shock – PU concrete performs far better than epoxy
- Pharma and clean rooms that need a seamless, hygienic floor
A thin paint in a heavy-duty area is the most common reason for peeling and early failure. Read more in common epoxy floor problems and solutions.
How Epoxy Floor Paint Is Applied
- Site inspection: check the strength, moisture and condition of the concrete.
- Surface preparation: grind or shot-blast the floor to open the pores and remove laitance, oil and old coatings. This step decides how long the floor lasts.
- Repairs: fill cracks and holes with epoxy putty or mortar.
- Primer: apply an epoxy primer to seal the concrete and build adhesion.
- Coating: apply one or two coats of epoxy by roller, mixed in the correct ratio.
- Curing: allow foot traffic after about 24 hours and full use after about 7 days (depending on temperature).
Can I Apply Epoxy Floor Paint Myself?
Small DIY packs are available online, and they can work for a small room. For factories and commercial floors, professional application is strongly recommended: without proper grinding and primer, epoxy paint often lifts, bubbles or wears through within months – and removing failed epoxy costs more than doing it right the first time.
Epoxy Floor Paint vs Ordinary Floor Paint
| Feature | Epoxy floor paint | Ordinary floor paint |
|---|---|---|
| Bond to concrete | Very strong (chemical cure) | Moderate |
| Oil and chemical resistance | Good | Poor |
| Abrasion resistance | Good for light traffic | Low |
| Typical life (light traffic) | Several years | Months to 1–2 years |
| Cost | Higher | Lower |
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does epoxy floor paint cost per sq ft in Bangladesh?
A roller-applied epoxy coating of 200–300 micron typically costs ৳60–80 per sq ft including application. Thicker systems cost more.
How long does epoxy floor paint last?
In light-traffic areas with proper surface preparation, several years. In heavy-traffic areas a thin coat wears out much faster, so a self-leveling or mortar system is recommended.
Is epoxy floor paint slippery?
A glossy finish can be slippery when wet. An anti-slip aggregate can be added in wet or sloped areas.
Can epoxy floor paint be used outdoors?
Standard epoxy yellows under sunlight. For UV-exposed areas, a PU or polyaspartic top coat is better.
Does DPF supply epoxy floor paint?
Yes. DPF manufactures and applies epoxy and PU flooring systems in Bangladesh and recommends the right system after a site visit.
