Sikafloor-290 Primer
Solvent-free two-part epoxy primer for industrial floor build-ups
Product Overview
Sikafloor-290 Primer is a solvent-free, two-part epoxy primer and adhesion promoter for concrete and cementitious screeds. It penetrates and seals the substrate, locking down dust and creating a strong bond for the floor coatings applied above, with tensile adhesion exceeding 1.5 N/mm. Being odourless and solvent-free, it can be used in poorly ventilated and occupied interiors, and it performs well even on highly absorbent surfaces across its full working-temperature range. It is the recommended primer ahead of the Sikafloor-291 system and other epoxy build-ups. Space Arc Engineering, an authorized Sika distributor in India, supplies it with matched levelling and wearing layers for complete floor systems. Refer to the TDS for substrate preparation guidance.
Features & Benefits
- Solvent-free and odourless for use in unventilated occupied areas
- Penetrates and seals highly absorbent concrete substrates
- Develops strong tensile adhesion above 1.5 N/mm to the base
- Fast and easy roller application speeds up floor programmes
- Locks down surface dust for a sound bonding layer
- Reliable bond strength across its full application temperature range
Technical Highlights
| Coverage | Consumption is approximately 0.20-0.40 kg/m per coat, depending on substrate porosity and surface profile. |
| Strength | Develops tensile adhesion strength greater than 1.5 N/mm to the prepared concrete substrate (per ISO 4624). |
| Performance | Seals and consolidates the substrate while promoting adhesion of subsequent Sika epoxy floor layers. |
| Application Conditions | Apply with ambient and substrate between +10 C and +35 C, humidity at or below 85% RH and substrate moisture at or below 4%. |
| Packaging | Supplied as a 14 kg set (Part A resin 2 kg x 2 + Part B hardener 5 kg x 2), mix ratio 1:2.5 by weight. |
Applications
- Priming new and hardened concrete in industrial production halls
- Adhesion layer ahead of Sikafloor-291 levelling screed
- Dust-binding primer for warehouse and workshop floors
- Substrate sealing in occupied or poorly ventilated interiors
- Base preparation for commercial and light-industrial epoxy floors

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sikafloor-290 Primer used for?
It is a solvent-free two-part epoxy primer and adhesion promoter that seals concrete substrates and bonds Sika epoxy floor coatings, notably ahead of the Sikafloor-291 system.
What coverage does Sikafloor-290 Primer give?
Consumption is approximately 0.20-0.40 kg/m per coat, varying with the porosity and profile of the substrate.
Is Sikafloor-290 Primer suitable for poorly ventilated areas?
Yes. It is solvent-free and odourless, so it can be applied in unventilated and occupied interiors, including on highly absorbent surfaces.
What is the mixing ratio of Sikafloor-290 Primer?
Part A to Part B is mixed at 1:2.5 by weight. Mix thoroughly before applying within the pot life. Refer to the TDS.
