Polished Concrete
Overview
- Polished concrete flooring is being used in retail stores, schools, commercial buildings and residential homes as an alternative to marble, granite, tile, wood, and linoleum.
- Polishing the concrete surface transforms your concrete floor into a beautiful, long lasting, very low maintenance floor that will have a smooth glass like finish.
- It’s mirror like finish can actually appear wet or you can have a marble, matte, or semi gloss finish. The final finish actually feels soft to the touch and silky smooth.
- Concrete polishing allows for the restoration of older concrete slabs and the improvement of new concrete floors.
- Polished concrete can be colored using concrete stain and concrete dye, allowing for a very decorative appearance instead of just plain gray.
- By adding multiple colors to the surface a polished floor can be turned into a unique work of art.
About Smart Polished concrete
Aesthetic Appeal & Outstanding Durability
Polished concrete can have a stunning effect, this beautiful surface when polished to perfection not only provides durable flooring options but adds a high-quality shine to any concrete surface. It is similar to sanding wood and it refers to the professional grinding of large concrete slabs and is a process of removal and refinement. High quality polished concrete has a high gloss and is very flat for crisp, low distortion reflections.
Polished concrete floors are the perfect choice for a modern aesthetic in your home and high traffic areas. Recent advances in polishing equipment and techniques, mean SMART POLISHED CONCRETE SYSTEMS can grind concrete floor surfaces, whether new or old, to a high-gloss finish that never needs waxes or coatings to give a unique finish. Finished concrete floors are less slippery than floors made of materials like linoleum and porcelain which is another of the benefits of these smooth, high-luster floors.

Benefits of
HTC Superfloor
Resistant to slipping
Despite what many might believe, a highly polished HTC SuperfloorTM is safer when it comes to avoiding slipping accidents than many other floors, even when wet. This means a safer and more comfortable working environment.
Vibration-Free
The extremely smooth surface entails minimal vibrations when moving goods with forklifts, for example. This means a better working environment, with forklift operators, for example, being less exposed to vibrations.
Sparkproof and fireproof
There are stringent demands in many operations for resistance to electrostatic discharge, ESD.

HTC Superfloor Platinum Full Exposure
Platinum is the best of the best. By repeatedly grinding and polishing the floor, you get a smoother, more even floor with more aggregate exposure and unmatched resistance to wear. Platinum is the most popular surface finish and is a good choice for most applications.
HTC Superfloor Gold Medium Exposure
Gold entails that the floor is not ground as deep as with Platinum. However, the floor is polished to the same gloss. Gold can therefore be a good choice for concrete floors that are already smooth and even.
HTC Superfloor Silver Full Exposure Matte Finish
Silver is a less glossy variant of Platinum but the grinding depth is the same. The polishing steps, however, are fewer. Therefore, it provides a matte but strong floor.
HTC Superfloor Bronze Non-Exposure Aggregate
With its finely honed upper layer, Bronze is the simplest HTC SuperfloorTM. The aggregate will not be visible. This produces a smooth and matte surface with somewhat lower resistance to wear. Best in applications with limited wear.
Existing Concrete
This will leave floor surface with a mixed exposure aggregate finish, also known as a Super Concrete existing finish. You will be left with a smoother, decorative concrete and more even floor with unmatched resistance to wear.

Yes. This will leave a mixed exposure aggregate finish, also known as a Super Concrete existing finish. This occurs by repeatedly grinding and polishing an existing floor, leaving you with a smoother, more even floor with varying levels of aggregate exposure and unmatched resistance to wear.
There is no dust created during the restoration process, because we use diamond abrasives and water. Our trained technicians are also mindful of your wood island units, countertops and kick boards so extra precaution and protective measures are taken before work commences.
Absolutely! In fact, polished concrete is arguably the most eco-friendly flooring solution you could install. Concrete is a natural surface comprised of rock and water. Plus, it’s frequently recycled, reducing your carbon footprint. The durability of polished concrete means it lasts longer than most products and results in less waste.
The concrete polishing process is permanent. Your polished concrete can last a lifetime without needing to be re-polished in most cases, although sometimes re-polishing is necessary in very heavy-duty environments. Keep in mind all concrete will crack. However, these cracks can be part of the appeal of your floor and add rustic charm or if you prefer can be repaired.
