Polished concrete dustproof floors are used when we don´t want dust particles to detach from the floor surface, in order to protect the flooring and avoid its deterioration.
What does an anti-dust floor look like?
These floors have a smooth finish with non-slip characteristics, which does not accumulate dirt and gives the feeling of being permanently clean.
For this reason, they are increasingly in demand in industrial areas where cleaning is essential, because it greatly facilitates and improves work tasks.
Given their magnificent features, we are going to talk a little more about them: where they’re used, types of finishes, advantages, etc.
Where can anti-dust flooring be installed?
These polished concrete anti-dust floors offer great results, wherever they have been installed. Currently, we can see them in many large shops, workshops, and parking lots among others places.
However, where they work best is in buildings related to industrial warehouses and logistics centres, since they are where companies carry out industrial activities and hygiene is a practically essential requirement.
Examples:
- Food industries (slaughterhouses).
- Chemical industry (laboratories).
Although we can also see them in warehouses, factories or hospitals.
Advantages of an anti-dust flooring
It’s very easy to clean and keep in good condition, therefore it is very hygienic. And, of course, it doesn’t release dust, which is its main contribution.
Also, it can be considered to be aesthetically pleasing, because it conveys the feeling of softness and warmth. Durability is another of its main attributes, compared to other more traditional flooring.
They are waterproof, fire retardant and non-flammable.
“This type of floor has more than enough benefits to install it both in commercial and industrial spaces.”
Due to all these positive qualities, anti-fust polished concrete floors are increasingly in demand. However, the ease of cleaning is considered to be one of the main advantages that makes it so popular.
What finishes can be achieved with polished concrete anti-dust flooring?
Aesthetically it looks great and offers many customization possibilities in terms of brightness and colour.
Regarding gloss, at BECOSAN® we offer 3 different possibilities:
- Mate-PLUS.
- Satin.
- Shiny.
Dust hazards within the industrial sector
In any factory, within the food industry or not, dust proliferation can be a serious problem.
Continued use of a floor, as a general rule, causes it to wear out and create dust particles, making the problem worse (even unusable) if it is not corrected and maintained correctly.
Dust formation affects in different ways:
- Daily work tasks get complicated.
- Employee health is impaired.
- Manufactured products are delivered in worse condition.
- Machinery in contact with the dust ends up working worse.
The dust, being so volatile, moves throughout the industrial warehouse, generating discomfort and health problems. One way to reduce its mobility is by using a forklift mat.
It becomes a very difficult hindrance to control.
“Thanks to anti-dust polished concrete floors, these problems disappear and maintenance becomes simple and economical.”
However, remember you can always deal with it by using industrial cleaning machines, such as industrial vacuum cleaners.
With an anti-dust floor, the company gains in occupational risk prevention and reduces maintenance and cleaning costs.
In addition, you also improve your image with the customer.
