Industrial Floor Systems

What Industrial Floor Systems does

Industrial Floor Systems is a privately held Canadian contractor specializing in the installation, restoration, and treatment of industrial and commercial flooring. Founded around 1990 and headquartered in Barrie, Ontario, the company operates eight offices across Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia and is positioned by management as one of Canada's largest flooring contractors. It operates under the CPandIFS umbrella alongside sister company Central Painting, enabling a bundled floor-to-ceiling facility maintenance offering.

The company's offering comprises eight service categories: concrete polishing (including restoration and staining with certified-applicator densifiers and hardeners), epoxy flooring (water-, solvent-, and 100%-solid formulations), floor coatings (waterproof membranes, traffic coatings, low-VOC and elastomeric systems), floor levelling, floor removal, surface preparation (shot blasting, scarifying, grinding, epoxy removal), farming and livestock flooring, and concrete hardening and dustproofing via silicate densification. Underlying capability rests on owned surface preparation and polishing equipment (ride-on and stand-up grinders, shot blasters, self-levellers, power trowels) and certified applicator status for premium densifier systems. A digital reporting system standardizes safety and compliance documentation for institutional audits.

Commercial motion is enterprise field sales with project-based custom quoting. Dedicated estimators and project managers scope each engagement, sometimes with site visits, and pricing varies by square footage, surface condition, and material specification. Customers are diversified across industrial, commercial, institutional, and retail end markets — including Walmart, Amazon (Vaughan), IKEA, Loblaws, No Frills, Metro, ATS Automation, JW Marriott, Saskatoon Civic Operations Facility, Clarington Police Station, Muskoka Brewery, Rivian, and Rossdown Poultry. Projects of 100,000-770,000 sq ft (e.g., the 770,000 sq ft JW Marriott polyurethane installation and the 480,000 sq ft Cantelon Dr. remediation) anchor the backlog. Safety credentials include COR, Avetta, and NCSO certifications, which support prequalification for institutional and government bids.
