Polished Concrete Flooring
Polished concrete is achieved through a process of mechanical refinement of a concrete surface (or floor slab) to a pure form using diamond abrasives and chemical densifiers. The result is a naturally beautiful concrete floor that is durable, reflective, and easy to maintain. The polished surface eliminates the need for tile, carpets or any other additional surface that requires expensive maintenance, use of harsh (polluting) cleaning chemicals and eventual replacement

What is polished Concrete
As we said “We define concrete polishing as the mechanical and chemical refinement of a concrete surface (or floor slab) to a pure form with diamond studded abrasive pads, pressure and rotational speed. The natural concrete floor will then provide a beautiful, long – lasting surface. This beautiful, durable surface takes away the need for tile, carpets or any other additional surface that requires expensive maintenance, use of harsh (polluting) cleaning chemicals and eventual replacement.”
Many people think of “polished concrete” as just a shiny concrete floor. Although that can be the ultimate result, you can also achieve that look with special finishes and even waxes. These surfaces are then burnished to bring out a “high-gloss” but that quickly fades and fails.
Some people also consider any concrete that is chemically densified (hardened) and then burnished to a very high gloss to be polished concrete. Again, that will look good but only for a short time. The cost will be very low but so will the longevity of that nice finish. When price, not quality and longevity, is the primary determinant, this may be what is installed. It is not polished concrete though.
The IntexArabia system
Focuses on a strict methodology that includes stripping, prepping, grinding, densifying and polishing in order to provide the best quality floor that maximizes appearance, durability, low maintenance and lower cost for the lifetime for that floor.
