Did you know?
While the service drive is the smallest footprint of your facility build, the service drive represents the most dynamic and important space in automotive retailing today?
Why AutoStone Tile Is Better Than Epoxy
Reason #1
Reason #2
Reason #3
Reason #4
Hyundai allows dealers the choice of either a permanent floor in the service drive or an epoxy coating. While tile maybe somewhat more expensive on a per square foot basis, it is the best investment you can make in the long run for your facility.
An epoxy coating will soon look worn and weary, and this diminishes the futuristic and service-oriented image of the Hyundai program. In a few short years you will be faced with having to resurface your service drive again, and later again and again.
A permanent tile by AutoStone USA makes the best impression with your customer because it looks beautiful for the life of your dealership. Epoxy coatings wear away and as they degrade from use.
This never-ending cycle of resurfacing is an ongoing cost that you never stop. However, with an AutoStone permanent service drive tile, your investment will last a lifetime. Build best, build once, build with AutoStone USA.

All three AutoStone service drive and workshop floor systems proposed for use in an Hyundai dealership have our brightfinish technology. The brightfinish technology enhances our impervious tile surface with a permanent sealant baked-in during the manufacturing process.

Competitor Products Darken over time
AutoStone service drive and workshop tiles are manufactured with our brightfinish to resist rubber-transfer, and surface stains.
