Challenges in Automotive Flooring
Modern automotive environments are complex and high-intensity, placing immense stress on flooring materials. From mechanical servicing areas to vehicle showrooms, these spaces face a unique combination of chemical exposure, mechanical load, and rigorous cleaning protocols. Argelith engineered tiles are specifically designed to withstand these challenges while maintaining performance and visual integrity over time.
Exposure to Automotive Fluids
Shops frequently encounter motor oil, brake fluid, coolant, and other aggressive substances. These liquids can stain, degrade, or penetrate lesser flooring surfaces, compromising appearance and hygiene. Argelith tiles feature a fully vitrified structure with an ultra-low absorption rate that prevents seepage and resists chemical damage.
Heavy Equipment
Vehicle lifts, rolling tool chests, and tire racks impose significant point loads that can crack or wear conventional flooring. Argelith tiles are engineered with exceptional compressive strength, making them ideal for high-impact areas. Argelith tiles are dry pressed and the edges have built in spacers.
Frequent Cleaning
Cleanliness is essential in both operational and customer-facing areas. Argelith’s dense surface resists staining and is compatible with scrubbers, degreasers, and industrial cleaning agents. Whether dealing with daily grime or deep-cleaning with acid solutions, Argelith tiles retain their appearance without sacrificing performance.

Maintenance Tips to Ensure Your Floor Lasts
Proper maintenance extends the life and performance of your Argelith flooring. Follow these best practices to protect your investment and maintain a clean, safe environment.
Clean Regularly: Use auto-scrubbers to remove oils and debris. For stubborn grime, aggressive pads are acceptable.
Use Proper Grout: In chemical-heavy areas, grout selection should align with the operational environment. In chemical-intensive industries, such as food processing, epoxy grout is recommended for its superior resistance. However, in automotive workshops, cementitious grouts are often preferred due to exposure to oils and other hydrocarbons. Narrow grout joints (1/16"–1/8") are advised across applications to minimize water pooling and reduce the risk of chipped tile edges.
Avoid Standing Water: While the tile is impervious, water can compromise grout over time. Ensure proper drainage.
