Which Sika resinous flooring systems appear to have product‑specific EPDs in the U.S. today?

EC3 shows a systems EPD for Sika ComfortFloor 23 covering 16 flooring systems valid to December 27, 2028 under the NSF Resinous Floor Coatings PCR. Other Sika resinous EPDs visible in EC3 are published by overseas units like Sika Egypt with ASTM, valid into 2026.

Who are the main EPD‑active competitors in resinous flooring?

Dur‑A‑Flex with many epoxy, MMA, and urethane‑cement systems published via UL and NSF with expiries in 2027, and Stonhard with a broad Smart EPD portfolio valid through 2029–2030.

Why should resinous flooring manufacturers care about product‑specific EPDs?

They reduce carbon accounting penalties and unlock materials credits like LEED v4.1 MR options. Many owners and GCs request them as standard documentation, which shortens submittal cycles and protects specifications.

What is the quickest way to expand EPD coverage across resinous systems?

Group systems by market use case, select the common PCR used by competitors, pick a program operator, and collect plant‑level data once to support multiple declarations. Sequence the top five revenue systems first, then roll to the rest.

Sika resinous flooring EPDs, at a glance

Q: What is Sika’s core business and do they focus only on resinous flooring?

Sika is a diversified building materials company with roofing membranes, concrete admixtures, waterproofing, sealants, repair mortars, and resinous flooring. They are not a pure‑play resinous flooring manufacturer.

Sika in one minute

Sika is not a pure‑play flooring brand. The company spans roofing membranes, concrete admixtures, waterproofing, sealants, repair mortars, and yes, resinous flooring under the Sikafloor umbrella. That breadth is great for cross‑trade solutions, but it also means EPD coverage varies by line and region.

What Sika sells in resinous floors

Across public catalogs, Sika markets epoxy coatings, decorative polyurethane systems, urethane‑cement systems for food and beverage, ESD and conductive floors, MMA fast‑cure systems, primers, and topcoats. In practice that is dozens of named systems sold into healthcare, pharma, education, retail, and industrial settings.

EPD snapshot as of November 20, 2025

We reviewed Building Transparency’s EC3 database to see what is current and easy to reference in bids. In the United States, we find a systems EPD covering Sika ComfortFloor 23, which consolidates 16 resinous and cementitious floor coating systems under the NSF Resinous Floor Coatings PCR. It is valid through December 27, 2028 (NSF International, 2024). Outside the U.S., resinous examples include Sikafloor 92 EG and Sikafloor 161 from Sika Egypt with ASTM EPDs valid into 2026 (ASTM International, 2024). This reflects what is visible in EC3 on this date, not Sika’s full internal pipeline or local declarations published elsewhere. Once here, we’ll reference EC3 just once for readability (EC3, as of Nov 20, 2025).

Coverage versus catalog breadth

Put simply, today’s easily findable, product‑specific coverage for Sika resinous floors in the U.S. looks narrower than the catalog. ComfortFloor is covered, yet many heavy‑duty epoxy, urethane‑cement, and ESD systems commonly specified in food, pharma, and manufacturing do not show a U.S. product‑specific EPD entry in EC3. If your sales team hears “send the EPD” several times a week, that gap can slow or stall submittals.

Why that matters commercially

Owners and GCs increasingly prefer product‑specific EPDs because they remove penalties from conservative defaults in carbon accounting and help projects meet credit language. LEED v4.1 awards points for product‑specific, third‑party verified EPDs within the materials credits, which often tilts selection toward documented systems when performance is otherwise similar (USGBC, 2024). Missing an EPD can push a good floor into a longer review or a quick substitution.

The competitive board you play on

Two frequent competitors in resinous flooring show broad, current coverage. Dur‑A‑Flex lists dozens of resinous system EPDs running through 2027 across epoxy, MMA, and urethane‑cement families, published with UL and NSF (UL, 2024) (NSF International, 2024). Stonhard shows a growing set of resinous EPDs published with Smart EPD, with many valid to 2029 and 2030 across primers, membranes, mortars, and sealers (Smart EPD, 2025). In spec fights where EPDs are prefered, that breadth can be decisive.

A real‑world gap to close fast

Urethane‑cement floors for wet processing areas are a common ask because of thermal shock and cleaning regimes. Competitors have multiple product‑specific EPDs for these systems. If your go‑to urethane‑cement system lacks one, expect more back‑and‑forth or a substitution request to a competitor with a live declaration. That is avoidable.

How manufacturers can tighten Sika‑adjacent bids

If you manufacture within the Sika competitive set, a fast playbook helps:

Map systems by use case first, not chemistry. Start with healthcare, food and beverage, pharma, and education bundles.
Align on the prevailing PCR competitors used for like‑for‑like comparability, then lock the program operator accordingly.
Prioritize the five systems your sales team quotes most often, especially those that run into LEED asks.
Collect plant‑level utility, waste, and formulation data once, to feed multiple system EPDs with minimal rework.

A white‑glove LCA partner can make the data pull painless and keep momentum so you publish on a predictable cadence. That saves your formulators and ops team real time so they can keep making product while the paperwork gets handled correctly.

What to watch next

Track expiries and renewals quarterly, and set alerts for near‑term lapses. If you add or revise resin systems, queue a prospective EPD so launch campaigns do not lag documentation. It is definately easier to keep a spec than to win one back after a substitution.
