– No hydrostatic / vapor pressure issues
– Installation requires no cure schedule
– Flatter, more level surface
– Typically meets/ exceeds OSHA recommends of a static coefficient friction of 0.5
Economical Benefits of Polished Concrete:
– No down time while chemical processes cure
– Lower initial costs compared to most other floor coverings
– One-time application with minimal maintenance
– Lower maintenance costs with less wear on cleaning equipment and consumables
– Long life cycle
Environmental Benefits of Polished Concrete:
