Diamond polishing of concrete

What is diamond concrete polishing?

Diamond concrete polishing is a mechanical treatment technique designed to improve the durability, appearance and performance of concrete surfaces. This method involves using abrasive discs encrusted with synthetic diamond grit to grind and polish concrete to a smooth, shiny, hard-wearing finish.

The main objectives of diamond concrete polishing :

1. Aesthetic enhancement: Create a glossy surface with a mirror or matt finish, as you prefer.

2. Increased durability: Reinforces concrete's resistance to abrasion, chemicals and daily wear and tear.

3. Reduced maintenance: diamond-polished surfaces require less maintenance thanks to their low permeability and resistance to staining.

Our diamond concrete polishing method

1. Surface preparation

Before polishing, our teams carry out a careful assessment of the surface:

• Cleaning to remove dust and impurities.

• Repair any cracks or imperfections.

2. Diamond sanding

We use specific machines equipped with diamond discs to sand concrete, according to your needs:

• Surface sanding: To remove surface stains or coatings.

• Deep sanding: To correct irregularities or expose aggregates.

3. Advanced polishing

After sanding, several mechanical polishing steps are carried out using increasingly fine diamond grains to obtain the desired finish (matte, satin or gloss).

4. Processing and sealing

We apply a chemical sealer or hardener to improve the concrete's long-term strength and gloss.

5. Final cleaning

Our machines with integrated dust extraction allow dust-free work, ensuring clean, environmentally-friendly operations.
