Benefits of Polished Concrete Systems
Low Maintenance
Most floor systems require aggressive scrubbing. Oil, paint, and other staining spills can leave lasting impressions on ordinary surfaces. But a polished floor system doesn't require such intense scrubbing -- the surface is so tightly compacted that it actually repels oils and other substances, making cleaning much easier.

The Elimination of Dusting
In ordinary unpolished floors, tiny particles of dust are pushed to the surface through an upward force called efflorescence. This forces epoxies, finishes, paint, and sealers off of the surface of the floor, and can make maintenence a costly priority. A polished floor eliminates efflorescence entirely, making for a much cleaner and healthier work environment.

Less Slippery = More Safe
When a floor is polished, it may look like glass, but it has a higher friction co-efficient than ordinary concrete. Simply put, it is much harder to slip on a concrete floor, wet or dry. Polished floors always meet and often exceed OSHA safety standards.

No More Stripping, Refinishing, or Painting
With a polished floor, there is no need to refinish or strip. All the maintenence hours and cost that used to be spent on such things can finally be spent elsewhere, since a our floor system never needs it! Savings can run into the hundreds of thousands, even in a 10-12 year period. The numbers speak for themselves.

No Downtime During Installation
Polished areas can be put into service immediately after the process is complete. In many cases we install the polished floor system while the plant is in full production.You can even apply this floor system in hospitals, with patients, family and hospital staff walking on the floors, without interruption to their daily routine & activity.

Enhanced Lighting
With a floor as reflective as a polished floor, the increased lighting in your facility doesn't just make it easier on your lighting bill or merely make your floor look more beautiful. Whether employee or customer, anyone in your facility who is can see better can use your facility more easily than before. Can any other floor system do that?

Long-Lasting Floor Solutions Ever
There is simply no comparison to other floor systems when it comes to how long a floor can last. In the event that they need to be refurbished, it can be done at a fraction of the cost of any other floor system, extending the life that much farther.

Can Make Old Floors Better Then New
There are dozens of ways for concrete floors to break as they get old: rain damage, surface stress, delamination, improper curing, curled cold joints, joint shoulder failure...the list goes on. But one solution, the polished floor system, can make any floor look better than new. Old, deteriorating, or weak concrete can be strengthened, and have its impact resistance and abrasion resistance increased.

Stain Resistance
Simply put, the polished floor system transforms a porous concrete floor into a tightened surface, dense enough to keep water, oil, and other contaminants from penetrating the surface.

Tire Streaks Are History
In other floor systems, a tire mark is usually there to stay until the floor is repaired. With an floor system, ordinary cleaning removes such blemishes immediately.

Less Tire Wear
In heavy industrial facilities, rough and uneven surfaces cause tires to wear out rather quickly. Most concrete floors have small "curling" joints, from where the concrete bows upward on the edges during concrete curing. Getting a polished concrete floor system will level the joints and make the entire surface smooth, making tires last much longer.

Cost Savings
The savings from a polished concrete floor system easily runs into the hundreds of thousands of dollars for most facilities, even in a 10-12 year period. The numbers speak for themselves.

Beauty
Polished concrete can sometimes be mistaken for marble, it is so smooth and attractive. No other floor system can boast such beauty. Epoxies don't even come close. Photos may help tell the story, but a real-life demo will make you a believer.
