Leaving concrete flooring untreated leaves it vulnerable to damage and deterioration. But applying concrete coatings takes time, since coatings must dry and cure before the flooring is usable. Concrete polishing gives you the benefits of a protected concrete floor without interrupting work or stopping production. It provides an aesthetically-appealing, durable finish that protects concrete floors from moisture damage, dusting, spills, and debris.
What to Know About Concrete Polishing
Benefits of Concrete Polishing
Concrete polishing offers an industrial or commercial flooring solution that provides a high-gloss, dust-free finish without a coating. Using state-of-the-art diamond grinders, Kaloutas teams can grind down the top-most layer of your concrete flooring, leaving a highly-polished, like-new floor. Along with polishing concrete, we treat concrete flooring with a silicate-based concrete densifier, so the post-polish shine lasts without an additional high-gloss coating. Our grinders can cover a large area in a short amount of time, and your facility flooring can be used as soon as polishing is completed.
Concrete Polishing: A Versatile Concrete Flooring Option
Both concrete coating and polishing are beneficial to commercial and industrial flooring. So how do you choose? Concrete polishing is a great fit if:
- Your facility has areas that cannot be shut down for long enough for a coating system to cure
- Your facility includes cold storage, whose cold temperatures prevent coating systems from curing properly
- You have a high moisture-vapor drive that requires an expensive moisture mitigation to maintain coating systems, but you want high-gloss flooring.
Kaloutas clients who benefit from concrete polishing work in a range of industries, including food and beverage, brewery flooring, retail, and more.
