PROJECT OBJECTIVES

  • Remove epoxy
  • Repair cracks and damages
  • Polish concrete
  • Bring up to a certain gloss level, chosen by customer and interior designers
  • Apply dust-proofing agent
  • Apply sealer to protect the surface and ensure resistance towards tyre marks, chemical spilage, etc. 

Car showroom

The client developed a new showroom for their fleet, designed to display high-end top-performance vehicles. 

The primary objective was to install a floor that combined ease of maintenance with a semi-gloss finish to enhance the visual appeal of the cars through reflection.

An additional requirement was to ensure the floor’s resistance to tire marks, a common issue in car showrooms due to frequent vehicle movement.

Existing conditions

  • Old concrete floors
  • Areas with epoxy
  • Areas with glue from old carpets
  • Areas with cracks

POLISANIER® FOR SHOWROOMS

A report by AutoTrader revealed that 69% of car buyers are influenced by the visual appeal of the dealership, with 49% of buyers indicating that they are more likely to purchase from a dealership that offers a modern, clean, and appealing environment.

POLISANIER® polished concrete delivers a floor that is both easy to maintain and clean. The surface is refined using advanced grinding machines to eliminate imperfections, resulting in a finish as smooth as marble. This treatment enhances the floor’s durability, making it highly resistant to heavy traffic, stains and everyday wear.

The client went with the semi-gloss shine as they were designing the building with very large window-partitions for optimal sunlight coming through, and our high-shine gloss could potentially create too much glare (it is that reflective) on a sunny day.

POLISANIER®   BENEFITS

Resistant to traffic

A significant improvement in surface hardness is achieved, enhancing resistance to heavy traffic of forklift trucks, foot-traffic, impacts, and abrasion from such – Also reduces scratchings in the floor surface

No tire-marks​

Resists tire marks from friction, as there is no resin or coating that can burn or wear away – This will result in less markings on the floor and easy removal of the ones present

Long-term savings

The efficiency is exceptional compared to other industrial floors. Maintenance costs will be significantly reduced, tire wear reduced and natural light will be reflected if you choose a medium or high gloss level

Durability

With enhanced abrasion resistance, your concrete floor’s lifespan is significantly prolonged. Investing in a POLISANIER® treatment is minimal compared to the substantial gains in functionality and performance.

Stain-resistant

Densifying the floor screed effectively seals the concrete pores within the floor, reducing the risk of oil and liquid penetration. This process prevents contaminants from seeping in and staining the floor.

Anti-Slip surface​

Polished concrete is certified as non-slip, ensuring greater safety for workers. It offers a smooth and shiny finish while remaining safe and slip-resistant.​
