CONCRIA™ FAST POWER TROWEL POLISHING

The system transforms your power trowel into a grinding and polishing machine in just few minutes – without screwing, drilling or changes to trowel. Concria Power trowel polishing has an average labor reduction of 80% compared to traditional planetary grinding as you can polish 10k+ sq ft/hr per grit (1000 m2/hr per grit).

3 step polishing for cream finish 

7 step polishing for salt&pepper finish 

 

You can use the Concria™ system also to remove curing agents, bond breakers, and tire marks from the concrete surface without interrupting the construction schedule. Concria™ Fast system can also be used to rejuvenate an old concrete and dry shake hardened floors!

Concria™ FAST system suits for old and new surfaces alike

Concria™ FAST is the best solution for grinding and polishing new and old concrete or dry-shake floors alike in industries and facilities, where a long-lasting, high-quality finish is required. We recommend Concria™ FAST for:

• Big box retailers
• Warehouses
• Fulfillment centers
• Grocery stores
• Schools and offices
• Production facilities
• Convention halls

Choose Salt & Pepper or Cream finish

If you want the very best for (and from) your floor, Salt & Pepper finish is the polishing concept to choose. Polishing with 7 steps transforms concrete into a beautiful, high-gloss floor, and is ideal for demanding environments that call for a low-maintenance, high-performance system. With 3 polishing steps the aggregates are not exposed, and the concrete paste is polished without being ground away. This results in a rich, cloud-like finish that is still high-gloss – it’s stunning! This is recommended especially for dry-shake floors.

Several factors will affect the final appearance of your polished concrete floor

The successful completion of a Concria™ diamond polished floor is dependent upon the quality of the concrete slab on which the polishing will take place. Concria™ Team professionals can offer insight into how to achieve the very best finish possible, including:

• Floor flatness/levelness criteria
• Concrete mix design
• Placing concrete
• Finishing the surface
• Floor reinforcement
• Concrete curing method
• Floor protection during construction

Grinding depth and polishing level

By strategically choosing different grit sizes, you can control how deeply you grind into the concrete surface. The grinding depth will then determine the degree to which the stones are exposed, and subsequently, control the finished appearance of the polished concrete floor. Different grit sizes also determine your floor’s level of polish. Highly-polished concrete can be like looking into a mirror, while a matte surface is not nearly as reflective.

A safe and healthy system

Concria™ FAST is the only power trowel polishing system on the market that meets both European and USA safety standards ISO 13105-2 and EN 12649:

• The trowel height from the ground to the lowest bar does not exceed 60mm (2.4”)
• You can drive smoothly without shaking and wobbling
• It does not break the power trowel’s axis
• You don’t need to worry about somebody putting their foot under the power trowel

Because water is used as the cooling agent for the diamond tooling, our system also meets the new OSHA concrete dust regulations by preventing silica dust particles from becoming airborne. The water also acts as a lubricant and reduces friction, therefore extending the life of the tool and allowing for faster cutting.

Creating concrete surfaces that are smooth, glossy, and easy to maintain

Not only are the treated surfaces beautiful, but Concria™ FAST trowel polished concrete floors are also much more abrasion-resistant and smoother than floors that are only treated with concrete densifiers. After using this system, dirt and grime will no longer collect on the concrete or dry-shake, and you’ll have a 100 % dust-free surface.

Our patented Concria™ FAST system is one of the most cost-effective ways to look after new industrial concrete and dry-shake floors. Low maintenance, durable, beautiful, easy on the wallet… There are a whole host of reasons to love your Concria™ FAST trowel polish system for concrete floors.
