Mechanically Polished Concrete

Mechanically Polished Concrete (MPC) involves high levels of craftsmanship and technological processes to deliver amazing looking floor surfaces that have been polished and buffed to the point where they shine. Mechanically Polished Concrete Floors harden the concrete by a factor of up to ten times, making the floor surface extremely durable as well as looking fantastic.

Mechanically Polished Concrete is a process that is generally suitable for indoor flooring surfaces only.

There are a couple of big name brands when it comes to MPC that some people will be familiar with like the term Hiperfloor or Superfloor. OzGrind offer both systems as well as offering a less expensive alternative in the mechanically polished range.

All of the above systems/processes are very involved and demonstrate concrete at its absolute best! True Polished Concrete is worth the extra money that it costs upfront because you have very little in the way of maintenance over the life of the floor – in fact it ends up being the cheapest flooring solution available on the market when you look at it over a 20 year cycle, as there is no topical coating that can wear away and therefore there is no need for re-coating every few years.

Along with value for money, it is also a healthier option as the floor is so well refined that it will not support the growth of toxic mould or dust mites, which is great for asthma or other allergy sufferers. Mechanically Polished Concrete brings together beauty, functionality, strength and it is easy to clean and maintain! It is also the environmentally sensible option as it makes use of the existing slab and minimises waste, and due to the reflective properties of the floor you can reduce your lighting requirements.
