Coated Concrete Floors

Protect Your Concrete Floors with Coating

Concrete floors are coated to protect the surface from stains, abrasion, and chemicals. The surface of concrete is slightly porous, making it prone to absorbing soluble contaminants, dust, and water, which can lead to floor degradation. Coating a concrete floor involves a process similar to high-polishing, but with an additional step of sealing the surface after the final stage of polishing.

Achieving a Glossy Finish

Coated concrete floors achieve their desired glossy finish using polyurethane or epoxy sealers. There are two primary sealing processes for coated concrete floors:

Diamond Finish

• Involves grinding or sanding the surface 3-4 times using sandpaper.
• After sanding, the surface is sealed with a tile or stone sealer.
• Ensures a durable and glossy finish, protecting the floor from damage and wear.

Epoxy Finish

• Consists of two layers of sealing.
• Various types of sandpaper are used to grind each layer.
• The final step involves sealing the floor with an epoxy sealer.
• Highly effective in preventing mold growth and water retention on the surface.

Benefits of Coating Concrete Floors

Concrete floors are coated for the following reasons:

• Protection from Stains and Chemicals: The coating acts as a barrier against spills and harsh chemicals.
• Durability: Increases the lifespan of the concrete by preventing wear and tear.
• Enhanced Appearance: Achieves a sleek, glossy finish that enhances the look of your floors.
• Water Resistance: Prevents water absorption, reducing the risk of damage and mold growth.

By choosing the right coating process, you can ensure that your concrete floors remain in excellent condition, providing long-lasting beauty and protection.

Coating concrete floors gives them a shiny and glossy look that is highly attractive. Clean and shining floors always have a positive impact on the people walking on them and boost the confidence of workers and staff in workplaces with coated concrete floors.

Easy to Maintain

Coated concrete floors are easy to clean and maintain as the coating acts as a barrier between the surface and the dust or water. Coating keeps the floors moist-free and minimizes the efforts of scrubbing and sweeping. Mopping with warm and mild soap water can bring back the shine to your floor.

Lasts for Years

Coated concrete floors last for many years without repairs and can withstand the wear of vehicle traffic. The coating protects the concrete and exposed aggregate, making it last long for many years.

Reflective Property

A shining or coated concrete floor has reflective properties where it reflects light. This property of the coated concrete floor will make your facility, workplace, or home a well-lit place without the use of auxiliary lighting.
