Green Advantages of Polished Concrete Floors

    Locally Made

    • Concrete is often produced locally so there is no need to ship it long distances, which can result in wasted energy.

    Material Reduction

    • Polished concrete has a beautiful finish naturally. This reduces amount of materials needed to finish the project. A reduction in materials goes a long way for the environment, from using fewer natural resources to preventing pollution from manufacturing and transportation.

    Long-lasting

    • Polished concrete floors are resistant to wear and tear. This long-lasting floor will not need to be refinished or replaced, therefore eliminating waste and the resources it takes to install new flooring.

    Thermal Comfort

    • Concrete is slow to cool and slow to heat which helps keep the indoor temperate consistent and reduces the need for heating and cooling.

    Indoor Air Quality

    • Concrete is better for the indoor air quality than most other flooring finishes. It has no noticeable VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
