POLISHED CONCRETE
Polished concrete is an innovative, economical and environmentally friendly process of mechanically grinding and polishing concrete utilizing industrial diamonds & impregnating hardeners. It is the perfect application for; commercial & business facilities, industrial plants, warehouses, retail locations, showrooms, schools, museums, and government buildings.
SHEEN LEVELS
Morbi euismod dolor cursus arcu vehicula venenatis. Vivamus vulputate.
MATTE FINISH
A matte sheen absorbs light and enhances the natural tones of the existing concrete.
Grit Level: 100
Gloss Meter: 20
LOW SHEEN
Gives a sleek look, similar to a matte finish, but with a slight shine that provides some light reflection.
Grit Level: 400
Gloss Meter: 20-35
HIGH GLOSS
Uniform, glossy appearance will reflect the lighting in the facility, and will mirror the colors from the objects surrounding it.
Grit Level: 800
Gloss Meter: 35 – 50
HIGH SHEEN
A high level of light reflectivity makes this our most popular flooring service. Color will reflect off of surrounding objects.
Grit Level: 3000
Gloss Meter: 50(+)
WHY POLISHED CONCRETE
PROFESSIONAL APPEARANCE
The higher grit tooling used, the higher the reflectivity – all based on the sheen level you want your floor to have. Polished concrete resists marks of tires, and staining from oil and chemicals.
EASY AND INEXPENSIVE TO MAINTAIN
As the person responsible for your facility upkeep, you want an option that looks good and is easy to maintain. Instead of spending countless hours trying to keep your floor in good condition by waxing and buffing, polished concrete requires very little maintenance – at least 30% less than VCT tile. All you have to do to keep the floor looking great is to sweep and damp mop as needed. Because the protective surface works as a barrier against spills, cleanup is kept simple. Polished concrete will not harbor dust, dirt, and allergens.
GREEN FLOORING
Concrete does not have a high thermal conductivity, which means it will take quite a long time to heat up and to cool down, creating an insulating effect and helping to balance temperature fluctuations. Using your existing slab and not adding a flooring that would need to be removed or replaced in the future is a sustainable solution because it not only decreases material use but also the need for replacement – helping both the environment and your building maintenance costs. Polished concrete can also be sealed with low VOC (volatile organic compounds) to further decrease any environmental impact. With a polished concrete floor, there is also increased light reflectivity, projecting a professional image and saving on lighting costs. Polished concrete will add more light to the area without the cost of adding fixtures by reflecting light from windows and current lights. During installation, dry, dust-controlled equipment filters and vacuums filter out 99.9% of all airborne dust. With no adhesives or coatings applied, and use of existing building substrate, it is very helpful in LEED projects.
