What are the color options for colored sand floor coatings?
Sep 04, 2025
Colored sand floor coatings offer a wide variety of colors, allowing for customization based on specific needs. They are categorized as follows:
1. Basic Colors
Monochromatic Colors
Common Industrial Colors: Dark Gray, Dark Blue (Stain-Resistant and Wear-Resistant)
Commercial/Home Colors: Light Yellow, Beige, Sky Blue (Creating a Warm Atmosphere)
Specialty Colors: Green (Hospitals, Kindergartens), Vivid Red (Warning Areas)
Primary Color Derivatives
By mixing the three primary colors red, yellow, and blue, you can create transitional colors like orange, green, and purple. For example:
Red + Yellow = Orange (Less red and more yellow creates a darker yellow, while adding white creates a lighter yellow). Yellow + Blue = Green (Less yellow, more blue for a darker blue, adding white for a lighter green).
2. Customized Solutions

Using natural colored sand particles, we can simulate marble and granite textures, with hundreds of color combinations.
