What is Guadalajara for the Industrial Sector?
The metropolitan area of Guadalajara, Jalisco, constitutes one of Mexico's most important industrial, technological, and manufacturing hubs. With a dynamic ecosystem ranging from high-tech and electronics production to food, beverage (tequila), and pharmaceutical processing plants, the infrastructure of this region demands world-class maintenance standards.
The industrial maintenance, construction, and high-performance coating services from SINE México in Guadalajara are designed to protect companies' physical assets, ensure operational continuity, and guarantee compliance with sanitary and structural safety regulations.
Key components of our service infrastructure in Jalisco:
- Local engineering team: Thermographic diagnosis, sclerometry, and on-site moisture tests.
- Specialized coating systems: Epoxy floors, cementitious urethanes, control joints, and rapid repair mortars.
- Preventive and corrective maintenance: Civil works, structural painting, industrial waterproofing, and facility adaptation.
When is this service needed?
A maintenance or plant manager in the industrial corridor of El Salto, Zapopan, or Tlaquepaque should request specialist intervention when detecting the following operational indicators:
- Dusting on concrete floors: Forklift traffic generates surface wear (abrasion), contaminating finished products and damaging electronic components.
- Cracks and potholes in control joints: Constant impacts that damage forklift wheels and pose a safety risk to operators.
- Non-conformities in sanitary audits: Presence of open joints, leaks, or porous surfaces that accumulate bacteria in food, beverage, or pharmaceutical plants (violation of NOM-251 or COFEPRIS guidelines).
- Visible chemical attack: Concrete corrosion due to spills of acids, sugars, alcohols, or aggressive cleaning agents.
- Loss of dielectric or conductive properties: Need to update electronic assembly areas to ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) systems to protect sensitive components.
Problems resolved by SINE México's intervention
- Unscheduled plant shutdowns: We restore surfaces and structures with ultra-fast curing systems, minimizing impact on production lines.
- Workplace slip hazards: We apply customized anti-slip textures according to the level of humidity and presence of oils in the area.
- Cross-contamination: We completely seal the porosity of concrete using monolithic, joint-free systems, preventing the proliferation of fungi and bacteria.
- Government fines and closures: We align your facilities with STPS, Civil Protection, and COFEPRIS regulations.
Benefits for your plant in Guadalajara
- Increased infrastructure ROI: We extend the useful life of concrete and metal structures by up to 15 additional years.
- Reduced forklift maintenance costs: Leveled surfaces and repaired joints drastically reduce wear on tires, suspensions, and transmissions of loading equipment.
- International regulatory compliance: Facilitates obtaining certifications such as Safe Quality Food (SQF), British Retail Consortium (BRC), FSSC 22000, and ISO 9001.
- Improved luminosity and safety: High-gloss epoxy finishes increase the reflectivity of natural and artificial light, reducing electricity consumption and improving personnel visibility.

Cutting-edge materials and technologies
We do not improvise with generic brands. We select the exact chemistry for each operational scenario using technology from global manufacturers:
- Cementitious Urethanes (SikaScreed, Flowfresh): Designed to withstand extreme thermal shock (from -40°C to 120°C) and high-pressure steam cleaning.
- Novolac Epoxies (Sherwin-Williams, BASF): Formulations with high chemical cross-linking density, ideal for resisting concentrated acids, solvents, and hydrocarbon spills.
- Polyaspartic Systems: Next-generation technology that allows for the application of finish coats with superior scratch resistance and full cure in less than 6 hours.
- High-Strength Epoxy Mortars: For the reconstruction of control joint edges subjected to severe impact from rigid polyurethane wheels.
Regulations and standards we guarantee
Our technical interventions in Guadalajara are carried out in strict adherence to national and international regulations:
- NOM-026-STPS-2008: Colors and safety and hygiene signs (delimitation of pedestrian aisles and risk areas).
- NOM-251-SSA1-2009: Hygiene practices for the processing of food, beverages or food supplements.
- ASTM C309 / ASTM C156: Standards for concrete curing compounds and moisture retention.
- FDA / USDA / NSF Guidelines: Materials approved for indirect food contact and ease of sanitization.
- ICRI Guideline No. 310.2R: Selection and determination of appropriate concrete surface preparation.
Our work process (SINE México)
- Technical Diagnosis and Moisture Measurement: We evaluate concrete compressive strength (sclerometry), measure internal relative humidity (calcium chloride test or digital meter), and detect oil contamination.
- Detailed Engineering Proposal: We present the technical specification of the ideal system, detailing thicknesses, anchoring profiles, execution times, and site logistics.
- Mechanical Surface Preparation: We remove previous coatings and contaminants using diamond planetary grinders or closed-circuit shot blasters. We do not use water or acids.
- Joint and Crack Treatment: We reconstruct damaged joint lips and seal structural cracks with injection epoxy resins or high-strength resin mortars.
- Coating System Application: Application of excellent adhesion primers, base coats (self-leveling or mortars), and seal coats according to manufacturer specifications.
- Quality Control and Adhesion Tests: Verification of wet and dry thicknesses, pull-off adhesion tests if required by the client, and delivery of a quality dossier with technical data sheets and quality certificates.
- Delivery and Commissioning: Handover of the area clean and ready to operate, accompanied by its written warranty policy.
Common mistakes when hiring (And how SINE avoids them)
- Omitting the moisture test: Applying epoxies on slabs with moisture content above 4% causes blistering (osmosis) and delamination. SINE always measure moisture and apply vapor barriers if necessary.
- Poor surface preparation: Simple washing or manual sanding does not generate the necessary anchor profile. We mechanically prepare surfaces according to ICRI standards.
- Use of insufficient thicknesses: Applying a thin paint (thin coat) in heavy traffic areas destroys the floor in weeks. We specify high-build multi-layer systems (mortars and self-leveling) calculated to withstand the actual loads of your operation.
