Floor Cleaning Products: MultiKleen & Vapourgard

The most common method to prevent flooring failures caused by moisture vapor is to apply a moisture vapor barrier (MVB) coating, VAPOURGARD, on the surface of the concrete slab.

Floor Cleaning Products Designed for Deep Surface Preparation

Clean flooring is not just about appearance. In industrial and commercial environments, it directly impacts how long a flooring system lasts. Dust, oil, grease, and moisture hidden in concrete can cause serious failures if not treated properly.

This is where floor cleaning products become essential. They prepare the surface before any coating, primer, or flooring system is applied. Without proper cleaning, even the best flooring systems may not perform as expected.

Floorkrete’s MultiKleen and Vapourgard range is designed to solve this problem with precision and reliability. These systems help create a clean, stable, and ready-to-use substrate for long-lasting flooring performance.

What are Floor Cleaning Products?

Floor cleaning products are special products that help remove impurities from concrete surfaces prior to installing any floor coverings. They serve purposes other than conventional cleaning products.

They are designed to remove:

  • Oil and grease stains
  • Dust and loose particles
  • Moisture-related contaminants
  • Industrial residues

One might think that such cleaning is unnecessary and a waste of time, but it could become costly in the long run.

Why Surface Cleaning is So Important Before Flooring

Concrete may look solid, but it naturally absorbs materials over time. Oil spills, dust buildup, and moisture can sit deep inside the surface.

If these are not removed properly, problems can appear later, such as:

  • Poor bonding of coatings
  • Surface peeling or blistering
  • Reduced flooring lifespan
  • Uneven performance over time

That is why products for cleaning floors are not optional. They are a critical first step in any flooring system.

Understanding Floorkrete MultiKleen Range

The MultiKleen range is designed for deep surface preparation. It helps remove contaminants that cannot be cleaned using basic methods.

These products are widely used in industrial and commercial flooring projects where surface quality matters.

Key Functions of MultiKleen

MultiKleen helps in:

  • Breaking down oil and grease deposits
  • Cleaning deep concrete pores
  • Removing industrial dirt buildup
  • Preparing the surface for coating application

This ensures the floor is ready for the next stage of installation.

Vapourgard – Moisture Protection System

Moisture is one of the biggest hidden challenges in flooring systems. Even after cleaning, concrete slabs can release vapor over time.

Vapourgard is designed to control this issue. It works as a moisture vapor barrier system applied over concrete surfaces.

Why Vapourgard is Important

  • Prevents moisture-related flooring failures
  • Reduces risk of coating delamination
  • Supports both new and old concrete slabs
  • Improves long-term flooring stability

This makes it an essential part of modern floor cleaning products systems used before flooring installation.

Common Problems Without Proper Floor Cleaning

One might think that such cleaning is unnecessary and a waste of time, but it could become costly in the long run.

1. Poor Adhesion

Coatings may not stick properly to contaminated surfaces.

2. Surface Blistering

Trapped moisture or oil can create bubbles under flooring layers.

3. Early Damage

Floors may wear out faster than expected.

4. Uneven Finish

Dust and debris can affect smoothness and appearance.

This is why floor cleaner products are considered essential in every flooring project.
