It is hard to imagine that cold, rough, gray, boring concrete floors can be turned into a work of art that will last for years without much maintenance. It is happening, though, all over the world. The art of polishing floors is an expanding market that provides a niche market for contractors that perform decorative, coating, hardening and grinding services .
Why is polished concrete so popular?
Value Sustainability Aesthetics Health Energy savings Safety
To polish concrete or other stone floors, contractors use industrial equipment to grind the surface in increasing grits of diamonds. Like sanding a piece of wood, you begin with a low number, rough grit and increase to a high number, smoother grit to achieve maximum smoothness and shine. Most ccontractors currently use electric machines in this process. This can be a dangerous process because of the high voltage necessary, the presence of water and the tangle of cords.
That is why Eagle Solutions has designed a line of safe propane powered machines. Propane releases less CO2 than electric. It reduces the needs for cords making the equipment very portable and easy to work with. There are no fears of using the equipment during wet grinding. There is no need for expensive power generators. Learn more by requesting a presentation CD to be mailed to you!! A video is available below, but it takes a while to download.
