What is Industrial Park Infrastructure?
Industrial park infrastructure comprises the set of civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical elements that enable the safe, efficient, and continuous operation of manufacturing plants, distribution centers (CEDIS), and logistics warehouses. It's not just about constructing warehouses, but about ensuring that the physical support withstands the severe dynamic, chemical, and thermal loads of modern industry.
At SINE México, we understand that an industrial park requires high-specification engineering solutions that comply with international quality and safety standards, minimizing the total cost of ownership for developers and maximizing the uptime for tenants.
When is specialized intervention needed?
A maintenance manager or industrial park developer should schedule SINE México's intervention upon detecting the following operational signals:
- Deterioration of concrete floors: Presence of cracks, potholes, dusting, or damaged control joints in industrial warehouses due to constant forklift traffic.
- Roof leaks: Leaks and moisture in sheet metal roofs (KR-18, SSR) that jeopardize raw materials, machinery, or finished products.
- Expansion requirements: Need to lay foundations for new production lines, install heavy presses, or expand storage areas.
- Electrical system failures: Constant circuit breaker trips, transformer overheating, or lack of capacity in substations for new tenants.
- Structural corrosion: Loss of section in columns, trusses, or storage racks due to humid environments or chemical agents.
- Customer or regulatory audits: Need to adapt facilities to comply with certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, HACCP, FDA, or STPS inspections.
Problems SINE México solves
- Unscheduled plant shutdowns: We solve critical structural and electrical failures before they halt the production line.
- Workplace risks and fines: We adapt facilities to comply with STPS safety standards, reducing accident rates and avoiding penalties.
- Accelerated machinery wear: Potholed floors damage forklift wheels and de-calibrate precision equipment; our leveling and epoxy resins eliminate this problem.
- Energy loss and downtime due to electrical failures: We optimize electrical distribution systems through thermography, load balancing, and substation maintenance.
- Water infiltrations: Professional sealing of roofs and construction joints to prevent losses due to moisture.
Benefits for your Industrial Park and Warehouse
- Increase in asset value (Cap Rate): Infrastructure with up-to-date preventive maintenance retains and increases its market value.
- Attraction of AAA tenants: Multinationals demand warehouses with high flatness floors (FF/FL), reliable electrical substations, and current security systems.
- Reduction of corrective maintenance costs: Proactive maintenance reduces emergency repair costs by up to 40%.
- Full regulatory compliance: Guarantee of approval in civil protection, environmental, and industrial safety audits.

Industrial Grade Materials and Technologies
We do not compromise on the quality of our materials. We work in partnership with world-leading manufacturers to guarantee the durability of every project:
- Coatings and Polymers: We apply high-performance systems from brands such as Sika, Sherwin-Williams (General Polymers), BASF (MasterBuilders) y Fosroc. From novolac epoxies for extreme chemical resistance to fast-curing polyaspartics for projects with critical time windows.
- Concretes and Additives: We design low-shrinkage concrete mixes with superplasticizing additives and structural fibers (metallic and synthetic) to eliminate joints and cracks, working hand-in-hand with certified suppliers.
- Waterproofing Systems: Polyurethane membranes, solvent-based acrylic systems, and high-durability prefabricated sheets for total protection of metal and concrete roofs.
Compliance Regulations and Standards
We guarantee that every project and technical service is executed under the current regulatory framework:
- NOM-001-SEDE-2012: Electrical Installations (Safety).
- NOM-005-STPS-1998: Safety and hygiene conditions in workplaces for the handling of chemical substances.
- ACI 302.1R / ACI 360R: Guides for the construction and design of industrial concrete floors and slabs.
- ASTM C109 / ASTM D4541: Tests for compressive strength and adhesion of coatings.
- AWS D1.1: Structural welding code – steel.
Our Work Process (SINE Mexico)
- On-site Diagnosis: We conduct a free technical visit to assess current conditions (sclerometry tests, thermography, or concrete moisture measurement if necessary).
- Engineering and Proposal: We develop a detailed technical-economic proposal, specifying materials, technical data sheets, scope, and work schedule.
- Surface / Area Preparation: The most critical step. We use grinding equipment with integrated vacuum systems to work dust-free in operational areas.
- Execution: Application of systems or civil construction by highly trained technical personnel, supervised by SINE resident engineers.
- Quality Control: Verification of wet/dry film thickness, electrical continuity tests, adhesion (Pull-Off) tests, and torque control as applicable.
- Delivery and Warranty: Delivery of a technical dossier including as-built plans, material quality certificates, a photographic report of the process, and a written warranty policy.
Common Mistakes When Contracting Industrial Maintenance
- Omitting mechanical surface preparation: Applying paint or epoxies over smooth or oil-contaminated concrete guarantees material detachment within a few months.
- Selecting materials by price and not by specification: Placing a standard epoxy in an area subject to thermal shock or pallet drag traffic will cause premature failures.
- Hiring contractors without insured personnel (IMSS): In case of an accident within the industrial park, the client assumes joint liability. At SINE México, all our personnel have current IMSS, DC-3 certifications, and complete personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Not considering curing times: Ignoring the time required for concrete or resins to reach their maximum mechanical and chemical strength before subjecting them to traffic.
SINE Mexico Warranty
All our projects are backed by a written warranty which covers hidden defects and application flaws. The warranty extension varies from 1 to 5 years depending on the selected system and the operational conditions of the area. We have the direct backing of material manufacturers, which gives you the certainty that your investment is protected long-term.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of surface preparation do you perform before applying epoxy floors in industrial warehouses?
We perform mechanical preparation using diamond grinding or shotblasting to achieve an anchor profile of CSP 3 to CSP 5 according to ICRI guidelines. We do not use acid to avoid concrete moisture contamination, ensuring maximum adhesion of the epoxy or polyurethane coating.
How do you guarantee the operational continuity of an industrial warehouse during maintenance work?
We schedule work during night shifts, weekends, or planned shutdown periods. We use dust containment barriers, air extractors, and fast-curing materials (such as cementitious polyurethane or polyaspartics) that allow areas to be released for pedestrian traffic in 4 hours and heavy traffic in 24 hours.
What regulations do your electrical installations comply with in medium and low voltage?
All our installations, distribution panels, grounding systems, and lightning rods are designed and executed under NOM-001-SEDE-2012 (Electrical Installations) and NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) standards, guaranteeing operational safety and approval by verification units (UVIE).
Do you offer coverage for industrial developments outside Coahuila?
Yes. Although our operational bases are in Torreón, Saltillo, and Piedras Negras, Coahuila, we handle infrastructure and major maintenance projects in industrial parks throughout northern and central Mexico, including Nuevo León, Chihuahua, Durango, Zacatecas, and San Luis Potosí.
