Barclays Center Creates the VIP Experience with Liquid Elements Flooring
Brooklyn’s Barclays Center Makes Upgrades with a Focus on Design
Barclays Center is a multipurpose basketball, hockey, and concert arena that is part of the Pacific Park business and residential complex in Brooklyn, New York. Home to the Brooklyn Nets, the arena is a well-recognized institution. When management decided it was time for an upgrade to the facility, they were focused on the latest interior design trends and in particular, aimed to create a livelier and brighter atmosphere for the Barclays’ VIP areas. With Liquid Elements artfully poured floors, they were able to start from the ground up.
Decorative, resilient, easy-to-clean, seamless flooring is ideal for Barclay's Center's guests and staff.
Reflect: High-End Design with Functional Benefits
Director of Operations, Jared Silsby, recognized the previous floor coating was peeling, leaving exclusive VIP areas looking worn-out and unsightly. In order to give guests the best experience possible, he knew they would need high-end, high-traffic flooring that would be easy to maintain. Reflect, by Liquid Elements, a seamless, artistic epoxy floor, combines natural minerals to produce an elegant surface while providing all the functional benefits the space required. In addition to durability and easy maintenance, Reflect flooring is resilient, so it’s comfortable underfoot, providing a pleasurable experience for guests and staff.

Installation Challenge Met
The Liquid Elements installation team had the challenge of meeting a tight schedule for Barclays Center. During a four-day period, they removed the pre-existing substrate, detaching three coats of epoxy paint. Following this, the floor was mechanically prepared and a primer and coating was applied. The Reflect epoxy flooring system in Smoky Rain was then installed with a heavy alcohol dispersion. The project was completed with a polyurethane sealer. The facility now looks like a world-class arena for hosting professional games and performers.
In a game between design and functionality, Barclays Center won with a quick turnaround and a trendy floor by Liquid Elements that will perform and impress guests for years to come.
