Monarcove is a heavy-duty polyurethane resin wall render designed to create a seamless wall-to-floor junction, also known as resin coving or resin coved skirting. Installed alongside a resin floor, it provides a smooth, tanked transition between horizontal and vertical surfaces – eliminating gaps where dirt, grease, or bacteria can build up.
This makes Monarcove an ideal solution for hygienic flooring systems where regular cleaning and sanitisation are essential. By combining strength, durability, and ease of maintenance, Monarcove is widely trusted across industries where compliance and cleanliness cannot be compromised.
Monarcove is a three-part polyurethane resin coving system applied by trowel to form a continuous wall-to-floor junction. Unlike PVC trims, tile coving, or epoxy-based alternatives, Monarcove bonds seamlessly with adjacent resin flooring and wall surfaces, providing a robust finish that will not crack, lift, or harbour contaminants.
Because it is flexible and impact-resistant, Monarcove is especially suited to environments that require frequent cleaning, chemical resistance, and long-lasting hygiene.
Monarcove is widely specified in industries where hygiene, durability, and safety are non-negotiable, including:
Monarcove is a three-part polyurethane system applied by trowel, often in conjunction with Monathane resin floor screeds. Together, they create a fully integrated, tanked resin flooring and coving system.
The finished surface is:
Dense and sealed – preventing bacteria or moisture ingress.
Uniform and monotone – providing a professional, seamless finish.
Highly resistant to hot water – suitable for regular washdowns.
Easy to clean – ensuring long-term hygiene and low maintenance.
