Floor Masters Ltd is excited to be able to offer New Zealand the SPEED POLISH Concrete Polish System.
This revolution in large format concrete floor polishing increases speed and lowers the cost of diamond polishing large concrete floors that are in good or great condition.
By using a different type of machine, we can increase production rates and reduce the labour cost and physical strain required to run heavy grinders that cover less than half the foot print. We have watched this process develop overseas, especially in the USA, and seen the technology mature.
Now is the time for the New Zealand Industrial and Commercial buildings to take advantage of the benefits this system offers.
The advantages of a polished concrete floor are double sided. On one side is the asthetic improvements, on the other side are the performance and long term benefits. Heads you win, Tails you win.
- Increased gloss - without a coating that will wear, flake or peel
-
Much improved light reflection - can reduce power costs
- Smoother surface - easier to clean
- Dust proofed surface (permanently internally sealed)
- Increased abrasion resistance - makes the floor last multiple times longer
- One of the lowest maintenance costs (low Life Cycle cost)
Using a large format concrete polishing machine (need a 1200mm minimum doorway entry) we can quickly mechanically polish good quality concrete floors to a high shine, smooth dust free finish. The finished concrete polished floor is chemically hardened, has a mechanically refined surface and a mild chemical resistant guard to reduce staining and etching.
This service is aimed at larger format retail, commercial and warehouse situations where speed and cost are important. This is not a deep aggregate “architectural” exposure finish – that is a slower and more costly option. This is a “Cream” to “Salt and Pepper” finish, with options of a matt, semi or high gloss 8000 grit finish.
If you desire a deeper aggregate grind, we can offer you this, but expect the costs to rise.
The Fast-Grind system is aimed at open area floors with areas greater than 100 SqM and is best suited to areas over 500 SqM. It can be performed in warehouse areas with racking, if edging is not highly important (edging takes concentrated effort and can be done at additional cost and time). With an almost 2m wide polishing width and 8 polishing heads with a total of 32 polishing segments we get things DONE. (most other machines have 3 or 4 heads and a total of 9 – 24 segments and an 800mm polishing path)
Starting with a quality power trowel finished floor, we can do and complete approx 800-1500 SqM per day.
