SEALERS, HARDNERS AND COATINGS

Concrete sealers, hardeners, and epoxy coatings each provide unique protection for concrete surfaces by enhancing durability, resistance, and longevity. Each of these treatments play a crucial role in extending the life of concrete, reducing maintenance, and enhancing overall performance based on the specific needs of the environment.

Stamped and sealed concrete

Concrete SEALERS

Concrete sealers create a protective barrier that shields the surface from water, chemicals, and wear. They help prevent:

  • Moisture Damage – Repels water to reduce cracking, spalling, and freeze-thaw damage.
  • Stains & Chemicals – Protects against oil, grease, salt, and harsh chemicals.
  • UV Damage – Some sealers prevent color fading and surface deterioration.
Concrete sealers and hardeners

CONCRETE HARDENERS

Concrete hardeners, typically made of silicate-based compounds, penetrate the surface and react with the free lime (calcium hydroxide) in the concrete. This process:

  • Increases Strength – Enhances surface density and hardness, reducing dusting and abrasion.
  • Improves Wear Resistance – Makes the concrete more durable under heavy traffic.
  • Reduces Porosity – Helps limit water absorption, adding extra protection against moisture and chemical damage.
Epoxy concrete floor

Epoxy Coatings

Epoxy coatings form a strong, durable layer on the concrete surface, offering:

  • High Chemical Resistance – Protects against spills of oils, acids, and other harsh chemicals.
  • Abrasion & Impact Resistance – Withstands heavy foot traffic, machinery, and dropped objects.
  • Aesthetic Enhancement – Available in various colors and finishes, including high gloss and slip-resistant textures.
