Yes, and the dust part surprises people.
Bare concrete sheds. The surface keeps breaking down under traffic, and the fine powder it gives off ends up on stock, on equipment, and in filters. Epoxy seals the slab and that stops. Facilities running sensitive assembly or clean storage notice it within a week.
Brightness is the other half. A coated floor reflects instead of absorbing, so the same light fixtures deliver more usable light down at floor level. Go lighter on the color and it climbs further, which knocks down the shadows that collect around racking and between work cells.
That shows up in ordinary ways. Labels are easier to read at the bottom of a rack, and a spill is visible before someone walks through it.
