Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator
Litres of epoxy from area, film thickness and solids content — the wet-film math coating reps use.
Coverage claims on consumer kits assume one thin coat on perfect concrete — porous slabs drink the first coat. Moisture-test the slab (plastic-sheet test) before any epoxy; vapour pushes coatings off.

Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator is a free epoxy floor calculator for civil engineers, contractors and quantity surveyors — instant, accurate and 100% client-side, with the governing formula and reference shown next to the result so the number can be defended, not just quoted.
About Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator
Litres of epoxy from area, film thickness and solids content — the wet-film math coating reps use. The calculation implements 1 L covers 1 m² at 1 mm WFT; WFT = DFT ÷ solids% (SSPC coating coverage math (WFT/DFT)). Coverage claims on consumer kits assume one thin coat on perfect concrete — porous slabs drink the first coat. Moisture-test the slab (plastic-sheet test) before any epoxy; vapour pushes coatings off.
How to use Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator
- 1Enter Floor area in m².
- 2Enter Dry film thickness per coat in mm (Garage 0.2–0.3 mm/coat · industrial 0.5+).
- 3Enter Solids by volume in % (100% solids epoxy · water-based ~50%).
- 4Enter Coats.

Frequently asked questions
What formula does the Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator use?+
It computes 1 L covers 1 m² at 1 mm WFT; WFT = DFT ÷ solids%, per SSPC coating coverage math (WFT/DFT). The formula is displayed under the result along with a worked example substituted with your own inputs.
What should I keep in mind when using this calculator?+
Coverage claims on consumer kits assume one thin coat on perfect concrete — porous slabs drink the first coat. Moisture-test the slab (plastic-sheet test) before any epoxy; vapour pushes coatings off.
Does it include wastage?+
Yes — standard wastage/bulking factors are built in and stated in the formula line, so the quantity is an orderable number, not a bare geometric volume.
Is the Epoxy Floor Coating Calculator free to use?+
Yes — completely free, no sign-up, no limits. It runs client-side in your browser, so inputs stay private and results are instant even on slow connections.
