Polished Concrete System Qatar

Polished Concrete System

Our Superfloor Diamond Polished Concrete System minimizes any long-term maintenance by eliminating the need to apply a topical sealer which requires regular maintenance.

Our system involves grinding, treating and polishing the actual concrete surface with specially designed densifiers and stain resistant impregnating sealers. Meanwhile we progressively grind and polish the concrete surface with finer and finer diamonds to achieve the desired gloss level. There are no additional surface coatings. Polished concrete requires almost no ongoing maintenance (beyond basic cleaning), a very occasional buffing will keep polished concrete looking brand new, this is a major reason why polished concrete is widely used in commercial applications.

Concrete grinding and Polishing system is growing exponentially as the ideal floor finish for warehouses, retail and manufacturing facilities, restaurants, show room floors, garages, carports, and residential interiors. It first started in Europe and was introduced to the United States in 1998. Since then, its uses have expanded tremendously. We introduced our Superfloor Diamond Polished Concrete System in Qatar 2015 with great success.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal as a glossy surface, diamond polished concrete floors are easy to maintain and clean, requiring only occasional damp mopping and holding up well to heavy traffic.

The process consists of a series of abrasive smoothing steps that, when completed, produces an impressive concrete floor surface, both visually and in terms of durability. When combined with the application of a compatible, liquid chemical densifier, the result is a smooth, glossy, durable and attractive concrete floor. It produces an almost mirror-like floor that is exceptionally resistant to wear, dusting, marking and abrasion.

It uses vacuum air purification systems that collect the dust during the dry abrasive smoothing process. All airborne dust is eliminated. Polished concrete is cost effective, clean, comfortable, consumer friendly, creative, customized, classic and continual, making your floor look better than new.

FAQ POLISHED CONCRETE

A. Polished concrete surfaces are achieved through a process of mechanical grinding, chemical densification and finish polishing. Polished concrete is fast becoming the ultimate no-wax flooring material the grinding process typically starts with course grit metal bond diamond abrasives and progresses through a series of finer grits until the floor is clean, smooth and free of large scratch patterns. Penetrating chemical densifiers are applied to harden the substrate, close concrete pores and improve shine and reflectivity. Resin bond diamond polishing pads are used to produce high gloss finishes that are attractive and easy to clean.

A. Polished concrete is the smart flooring choice for almost any type of building. It is commonly used in retail stores, restaurants, grocery stores, big box retailers, home improvement centers, warehouses, distribution centers, industrial sites, food and beverage production facilities, pharmaceutical laboratories, electronics manufacturers, hospitals, schools, museums, cafeterias, government buildings, office buildings, residences, lofts, car dealerships, garages, airplane hangars, sports arenas, etc.

A. Polished concrete floors have a bright, clean appearance that promotes a positive corporate image. The polishing process accentuates a concrete floor’s natural beauty. Varying amounts of aggregate can be exposed to achieve different looks ranging from: (1) light grinds leaving creamy, brilliantly shined cementitious caps to (2) medium grinds producing salt and pepper finishes to (3) deep grinds which expose large aggregate creating visually interesting floors. Each concrete floor is unique. Underlying colors and compositions are determined by types of cement and aggregates used in concrete mixes when they are poured. The polishing process will accentuate each floor’s unique color, aggregate patterns and natural beauty. Stains and dyes can be used to incorporate new colors and patterns if design elements are desired.

A. Polished concrete floors are safe and slip-resistant when properly maintained. NEWMOON’s polished concrete floors have been thoroughly tested by independent laboratories which have verified they meet applicable static and dynamic coefficient of friction requirements and all other applicable safety standards.

A. NEWMOON uses industrial concrete grinding and polishing equipment coupled with custom diamond abrasives specifically engineered to meet its demanding performance specifications. NEWMOON typically uses a nine-step dry polishing process in which a progression of abrasives grinds, hone and polish the floor to a 3000-grit finish. Proprietary densifiers are used in the process to strengthen and bind the substructure as well as enhance its shine and reflectivity.

A. Densifiers are reactive chemical solutions which are applied to concrete slabs to strengthen substrates, close surface pores and improve gloss. Low viscosity densifiers work by penetrating deep into slabs where they react with free lime and calcium in a pozzolanic process that produces additional cementitious materials which increase a substrate’s strength and density, reduce efflorescent dusting, provide improved stain protection and enhance polish ability and shine.

A. NEWMOON prides itself on being able to perform any project, in any place, at any time. This is made possible by its unique ability to put multiple crews on projects occurring simultaneously in different locations. NEWMOON has over 26 trained crews able to travel to any location in the Qatar. NEWMOON crews can work at any time, day or night, to avoid disrupting of ongoing business operations. Projects can be fast tracked to meet deadlines or phased to accommodate flexible timeframes.

A. NEWMOON uses industrial vacuums with filter efficiencies to remove 99.9% of the dust created in the polishing process at 0.5 microns. All grinders are equipped with dust skirts constructed out of military grade materials which are effective in controlling dust from escaping from the grinding head. Auto-scrubbers are used between each step in the polishing process to further control dust and to promote overall jobsite cleanliness and safety. Post construction polishes can be scheduled where spotless, showroom floors are wanted for grand openings or walk-throughs.

A. Polished concrete is maintained by regular mopping or auto-scrubbing with a neutral PH cleaner. NEWMOON provides hands-on training on how to properly maintain its polished concrete floors. NEWMOON also offers a range of maintenance programs which can be individually tailored to meet specific customer needs, expectations and budgets.
