Any commercial space can be given a facelift just by changing the floors. Let’s have a look at examples of polished concrete floors in Melbourne.

Polished concrete brightens any area and gives it a wow factor that most other flooring types can’t. It’s a strong surface known for withstanding heavy foot traffic. For commercial polished concrete floors in Melbourne, you’ve come to the right place.

Commercial Polished Concrete Floors Melbourne

Polished concrete floors are hardwearing, scratch-resistant, and won’t chip like many other floor surfaces. Able to handle heavy traffic (foot and otherwise), they’re not only great for homes, but they’re perfect in a commercial setting.

Polished floors are glossy and reflect light, making any space appear brighter and even bigger. Auto showrooms, retail stores, hotels, restaurants, medical facilities, and warehouses benefit tremendously from this type of floor.

Office spaces look amazing as you can see here. Light from the big windows is reflected, and the entire space is significantly brighter after the floor revamp.

What Is Polished Concrete?

Concrete is poured onto a new or existing floor and then ground down to the desired level with machines that are fitted with diamond abrasive grits. Depending on individual desires or needs, the concrete can be polished to reveal different levels of aggregate, i.e. the stones and gravel that it is comprised of.

Full exposure grinds the concrete down to its lowest level of aggregate, resulting in a gorgeous finish. Partial exposure provides a modern rustic look, and it’s been given its ‘salt and pepper’ nickname for a reason!

After acid etching opens up the ‘pores’ of the concrete, an acrylic, epoxy, or polyurethane sealer is applied. These will give you a satin or gloss finish.

The Benefits of Polished Concrete

Being easy to clean is a huge drawcard for this type of surface. No harsh chemicals are needed to clean it. Unlike other flooring materials, it won’t chip and its durability means it can handle high traffic. It’s also hypoallergenic, so it’s safe for everyone.
