Best floor paint?

Can anyone recommend a particular floor paint? - or any water-based eggshell / satin paint that is super hard-wearing?
We are having our front door repainted as well as our floors (kitchen / bathroom), and I had been considering just using Dulux Weathershield Quick-drying Satin for both.
But then it occurred to me that weather resistance might not necessarily be quite the same thing as a surface that is chip / scratch resistant...?

What are the floors made of?
I have used International Floor paint and Garage Floor paint on concrete floors in garages and outbuildings and it's very good.
I don't think I'd be paying someone to do it though. It's easy to apply.
Remember, when painting floors always aim to end up by the door.;)0 -

Floorboards in kitchen and bathroom - water-based paint strongly preferred.0 -
Didn't you ask a similar question recently?
You want something tough for kitchens/floors. An epoxy resin based paint/varnish for example. Water based will not last long before it marks.For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple and wrong.0 -
