Build a garage!

There is endless variety in serviceable flooring for shops; including linoleum-asphalt TILES, epoxies, bare cement, compound oil stains...First in choice process; what variety of work is the area for? Metalwork? Wood? Welding? That will bear on what means are acceptable for cleaning. Linoleum tiles are surprisingly good around machinery and easy to clean up. Epoxies offer color, not easily damaged but complicates patching repairs. Prepared oil sealing will sweep up metal and wood chips, they'll contain water while mopping. Not ordinary petro oils; those can rot wood.
Then if it's REAL machining, consider end-grain wood blocks. Note; end grain not linear. My all time favorite, once you've seen one, walked on it, dropped a micrometer or project...and it's not cold. Won't accommodate a radiant sub-floor, but fine for above. Labor intensive to have installed, (do you have radial arm & band saw?) inexpensive material if sourced efficiently, lasts a LONG time, usually 2-4" thick. If construction is concrete, just pour a thicker perimeter sill or raised cinder blocks a decent amount above grade to deter incursion of water. People are amazed at how some massive shops were just so equipped.
