Many businesses choose a commercial flooring wax product to provide a high shine finish that brightens the space and gives the impression of a clean environment. This traditional flooring system is commonly accepted as the norm. As collective consciousness about eco-friendly flooring options rise, and with the new LEED v4 guidelines about environmentally preferable products, polished concrete flooring systems are rising in popularity.
Some common problems experienced by businesses who choose commercial floor wax as a finish for their space are furniture sticking to the floor due to incompatible finishes, scratch whitening from aggressive brush cleaning, yellow stains caused by certain rubber backed mats and rugs, and budget concerns due to the high cost of regular cleaning and maintenance.
Choosing a polished concrete surface helps avoid all of these problems and more. Maintenance is simple and for chemically sensitive people, this surface treatment is a great choice because it’s easy to disinfect polished concrete floors with eco-friendly cleaning products. It’s not necessary to contract special janitorial services to regularly re-apply a surface treatment, so there’s no down-time associated with maintaining a polished and sealed concrete floor system.
While waxed vinyl flooring systems have a finite life span no matter how meticulously they are maintained, a polished concrete floor should easily last a lifetime with regular, simple cleaning techniques.
Polishing a concrete floor gives it a beautiful shine. Adding or changing the color of a concrete floor can be part of the polishing process, as well.
