GENERATIONS INTACT 2500
Discover how the unique properties of Generations Intact 2500 make it the most durable and the best guaranteed finish in the industry. You can finally challenge the limits of using wood in ALL of your commercial projects.
HYDROPHOBIC FINISH
THE MOLECULAR BARRIER

The molecules in the Generations Intact 2500 finish interlock with the wood cells, creating a waterproof barrier for unmatched protection from the elements. As a result, the finish does not come off or fade.
COMMERCIAL DURABILITY
ANTI-PERFORATION AND FLEXIBILITY


Generations Intact 2500 protects floor surfaces thanks to aluminum oxide particles of varying sizes. The multilayered composition makes wood surfaces more flexible and impact resistant.
This superior commercial durability is reinforced by an anti-perforation finish that stands up to 2,500 cycles of the TABER sandpaper test. Even in high-traffic areas, Generations Intact 2500 is the only finish to come with a 3-year commercial warranty on surfaces with direct outdoor access and a 10-year warranty for light commercial projects.
SCRATCH-RESISTANT FINISH

The top layer of Generations Intact 2500 is packed with microfragmented aluminum particles. This creates a multipoint contact surface that is much more resistant to the scratches caused by the frequent traffic in commercial spaces.
Low maintenance
COMMERCIAL GLOSS
This limited reflection gloss minimizes the appearance of surface marks and allows for optimal maintenance.
ANTIMICROBIAL
The ULTRA-FRESHTM antimicrobial added to the finish limits the risk of bacteria and mildew growth on the finished surface.
NON-YELLOWING
The non-yellowing formula in the finish reduces the natural wood board yellowing process.
MAINTENANCE
Clean floor using Mercier’s maintenance products or a well wrung mop with mild pH neutral soap
THE TABER TEST

The TABER test involves mounting a portion of a finished board onto a turntable fitted with sheets of abrasive paper. The degree of resistance is evaluated based on the number of rotations it takes to completely wear down the finish. The higher the number of cycles, the more resistant the finish. Generations Intact 2500 resists 2,500 TABER test cycles, making it the most resistant finish in the industry.
