What is polished concrete?
Polished concrete is a new flooring technology developed in the US.
It involves grinding and polishing concrete flat, applying a penetrant chemical known as a hardener, and then polishing the surface smooth.
A protectant is then applied to the finished product, which repels dirt and adds luster, bringing out the natural beauty of the concrete.
The technique can be applied to existing concrete surfaces as well as new installations, transforming old floors into something completely fresh and new.
And because polished concrete does not degrade or peel with time, it stays beautiful for years with almost no maintenance, greatly reducing repair costs.
Sinto offers both concrete polishing services and the materials needed for polished concrete.
