MICROPOX combines water-based epoxy resin and mineral fillers to create seamless wall and floor finishes. The system addresses surface character, substrate adhesion, service demands and final protection rather than pursuing appearance alone.
A resin-based system, engineered for stable, seamless surfaces.
MICROPOX is a seamless decorative system based on waterborne epoxy resin and mineral aggregates. In the current standard build-up, Base provides coarse levelling, Medio refines the intermediate layer, Fino creates the decorative finish and PAVIPOL M100 supplies clear protection. PAVIPOL W is a separate two-component water-based option whose parameters must not be mixed with those of M100.
Before specifying the system, confirm the substrate, moisture conditions, joints, service demands and target sheen. A seamless finish does not eliminate the need to assess substrate joints, structural movement or on-site moisture.
01
Material logic
Water-based epoxy resin provides adhesion and continuity, while mineral fillers create tactile depth and a trowelled texture.
02
Application logic
Walls and floors follow a clearly defined substrate, finish and protection sequence, adjusted to suit project conditions.
03
Verification logic
Colour is only one part of the selection; the sample must also confirm texture, sheen, junction details and maintenance.
02 / REAL APPLICATIONS
From homes to commercial interiors, see the finish in real spaces.
These reference images come from the original MICROPOX catalogue. They illustrate design directions only; every project still requires its own substrate and system assessment.
OFFICEOffice and collaboration spaces / continuous floorINDOOR / OUTDOORVisual continuity between interior and terraceRETAILRetail and high-frequency traffic spaces
Residential
Seamless wall and floor finishes for kitchens, living areas, dry bathroom zones, terraces and balconies.
office
Open-plan spaces that require a unified visual backdrop, everyday traffic resistance and straightforward maintenance.
business
In stores, display spaces and high-traffic areas, the protection system needs to be checked based on load and maintenance frequency.
outdoor
The catalogue includes exterior applications; each project must still verify drainage, junction details, UV exposure and substrate conditions.
03 / CORE MATERIALS
Five coordinated materials, each with a defined role.
Dedicated products perform substrate levelling, intermediate smoothing, fine finishing and final protection. The standard build-up and optional sealer are presented separately so that packaging, coverage and application conditions are never mixed.

Two-component water-based protection
A two-component waterborne aliphatic polyurethane sealer. Its components, packaging, cleaning medium and application parameters differ from M100.

04 / SYSTEM ANATOMY
A stable surface, built through coordinated layers.
The 2024 standard mesh-reinforced floor and wall systems follow the same sequence: primer with fibreglass mesh, Base, Medio, two Fino coats and two M100 protective coats. A clear build-up never replaces checks for substrate moisture, cracks, movement joints and junction details.

05 / APPLICATION PATH
Material sequence and application timing, clear before work begins.
The sequence and coverage figures below follow the 2024 standard mesh-reinforced floor and wall systems and their product data sheets. Temperature, humidity, substrate absorption, product version and batch can alter actual waiting times; always follow the current TDS and site trial.
01
SUBSTRATE
Inspect and prepare the substrate
Confirm strength, flatness, moisture, contamination, cracks and movement joints. The finish cannot conceal unresolved substrate defects.
Project reconciliation
02
PRIMER + MESH
Create the reinforced primer interface
For the standard floor system, apply approximately 0.25 kg/m² of MICROTAC PRIMER with fibreglass mesh. For the standard wall system, use approximately 0.15 kg/m² of MICROTAC AC with mesh.
6–12 h
03
BASE / MEDIO
Complete coarse levelling and intermediate smoothing
Apply Base at approximately 1.20 kg/m² and Medio at approximately 0.70 kg/m² with a metal trowel. Add TIX for vertical applications as specified.
6–12 h for each layer
04
FINO · TWO COATS
Build the fine texture in two coats
Apply approximately 0.50 kg/m² per coat. Keep trowel direction, wet edges and thickness consistent; after the second coat cures, sand with 120/180 grit and vacuum thoroughly as specified.
6–12 h each pass
05
PAVIPOL M100
Apply two clear protective coats
The current data sheet specifies 60–70 g/m² per coat. Recoat after the previous layer is touch-dry, typically after 2–6 hours, and do not exceed 70 g/m² in a single coat.
Standard system
06
PAVIPOL W · OPTION
Confirm the water-based protection option separately
When PAVIPOL W is specified, follow its two-component mixing ratio, maximum 100 g/m² per coat and water-cleaning instructions. Do not apply M100 parameters to PAVIPOL W.
According to actual supply TDS
The main sequence follows the 2024 MICROPOX standard mesh-reinforced floor and wall systems together with the current PAVIPOL M100 technical data sheet. PAVIPOL W is shown only as a separate protection option; always verify the supplied label, batch and current TDS before application.
06 / TECHNICAL EVIDENCE
Verified performance data, for informed durability assessment.
The official MICROPOX Base and Medio data sheets list results for BCA wear, impact, surface hardness, adhesion and abrasion. These figures support product identification and preliminary specification only; they do not replace a current test report or project acceptance criteria.
Bonding strength> 3.7MPa
Indicates adhesion between the tested system and substrate. Each project still requires substrate pull-off and compatibility assessment.
surface hardness171N/mm²
The stated surface-hardness result does not replace scratch-resistance testing or an assessment of actual service conditions.
BCA wear40μm
The BCA wear result should only be compared with requirements measured using the same test method.
Impact resistance> 14.7Nm
The source records no defects at a 1,500 mm drop height, with an impact crater of approximately 8.2 mm.
Wear results23.5mm
Recorded abrasion result; interpretation requires confirmation of the referenced standard and specimen conditions.

07 / COLOR DIRECTIONS
Twenty-four colour directions, confirmed by physical samples.
Screen rendering, ambient light, trowel direction and sealer sheen all affect appearance. Colour names are for communication; final selection must be confirmed with physical samples and an on-site mock-up. Custom colours are also available subject to confirmation.

SAMPLE BEFORE PROJECT
Physical samples connect colour selection with the final surface.
Sample requirements are defined by the space, substrate, colour, target texture, sheen and service demands. Review not only colour difference, but also trowel movement and sealer appearance under the project lighting.
