Floor Hardener

Floor Hardener is a dry-shake, pre-mixed material applied to fresh concrete to increase its surface strength, durability, and abrasion resistance. It is commonly used in industrial, commercial, and heavy-traffic areas to extend the lifespan of concrete floors and prevent dusting, cracking, and wear.

Floor Hardener is suitable for a wide range of environments, including warehouses, factories, workshops, parking areas, loading bays, garages, production halls, and logistic centres. It is ideal for places that experience heavy machinery movement, forklift traffic, and continuous operations.

It is applied using the dry-shake method. After concrete is poured and leveled, the Floor Hardener is broadcast evenly over the surface, allowed to absorb moisture, and then troweled using a power trowel. This process creates a dense, hard, and smooth surface finish.

Floor Hardener enhances abrasion resistance, impact strength, and surface durability. It reduces dust formation, improves load-bearing capacity, and significantly lowers long-term maintenance costs. The final surface is smooth, dense, and resistant to wear and chemicals.

When properly applied, Floor Hardener can last for decades. Its lifespan depends on the concrete quality, traffic load, and maintenance practices. For industrial floors, it can maintain performance for 20–30 years with regular cleaning and timely repairs.

Yes. Floor Hardener is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It is widely used on driveways, parking areas, loading docks, walkways, and other open spaces because of its UV, moisture, and temperature resistance—perfect for Middle East & African climates.

Absolutely. One of its primary functions is to eliminate concrete dusting. It creates a dense, sealed surface layer that prevents loose particles from forming, making it ideal for warehouses, logistics facilities, and food storage areas.

Typically, light foot traffic is allowed after 24–48 hours, while heavier equipment and forklifts should wait 7–14 days depending on curing conditions. Proper curing is essential to achieve the required surface strength.

Most Floor Hardeners come in 25 kg bags, with bulk packaging available on request. You can also choose different grades based on your floor traffic requirements—metallic, non-metallic, or colored.
