The Benefits of Polished Concrete for Your Business
Aesthetic
First-impressions are everything in business. Whether it's a new client or customer walking through the door or creating a pleasant environment for your employees, your flooring system sets the stage for your entire business. Polished concrete is a stunning alternative to unrefined concrete. Plus, it can be customized with numerous beautiful shades and nuances.
Low-Maintenance
Floor systems like linoleum and tile require consistent scrubbing to maintain clean and sanitary appearance. Compared to traditional floor systems, polished concrete is simple to clean and easy to maintain. Thanks to a tightly compacted surface, it doesn’t require any regular wax or stripping treatments to maintain its shine. Just wipe with soap and water and you’re done!
Stain Resistant
Polished concrete densifies and seals the surface of your exposed floors. In doing so, porous concrete is transformed into a tightened floor system that prevents unwanted substances from penetrating the surface. Polished concrete can easily repel water, oil, and other contaminants making it a good choice in a variety of industries where spills are a concern.
Slip Resistant
The surface of polished concrete is shiny and one of the reasons it is so beautiful. Although the sheen of polished concrete may look slippery, it’s actually resistant to slip and falls. Compared to ordinary concrete, the process of grinding and flattening the surface boosts friction. In most cases, exposed polished concrete in DFW exceeds OSHA commercial floor standards (ASTM C 1028).
Cost-Effective
Because polished concrete can use your existing floor system as a foundation, it isn’t super expensive to install. ROI is also realized through low maintenance costs compared to other floor methods. Polished concrete can also improve ambient lighting indoors which saves on energy costs while other specialized applications can reduce tire wear.
