Previously, this was a typical warehouse floor with peeling epoxy

i i ti requiring recoating every two years. The goal was to have a sustainable, low maintenance floor. The floor was repaired, dyed black and diamond polished.

Diamond polished concrete floors are competitively priced with other

architectural floors such as epoxyarchitectural floors such as epoxy, ceramic, vinyl sheet and VCT


This is the new Spiritual C t t N J Center at a New Jersey College. The architect wanted a unique design using the latest technology in green environmentally friendly materials. A d ddecorative design was saw cut into the floor, stained with a water based product and sealed to prevent staining.
