Polished Concrete was a perfect option for this manufacturer’s office areas where #TeamIA polished over 4,000 square feet of office space. Not only is polished concrete a natural, durable, beautiful flooring system, it is proven to be one of the most effective GREEN flooring solutions and systems available, possibly the greenest flooring solutions that delivers the results it does. Among the many green flooring solutions, polished concrete stands out for its affordability, durability and minimal environmental impact. Its longevity significantly decreases waste from flooring systems that require initial purchase and delivery, and replacement over time such as tile, VCT tile, hardwood and carpet which have a limited life cycle. Polished concrete doesn’t require hazardous adhesives and it is low maintenance to clean; doesn’t need to be waxed and buffed, which saves time and money and doesn’t require hazardous cleaning agents. The polished, reflective surface with a shine similar to polished marble adds more light without additional fixtures, which saves energy, decreases artificial light requirements resulting in lower electricity costs.
