BECOSAN® is a leading industrial concrete polishing company operating in Leicestershire.
BECOSAN® concrete polishing is a practical solution for industry in Leicestershire. With years of experience behind us, we have already had the privilege of working on various projects, helping different industries to improve their surfaces. If you are looking for a concrete polishing service in Leicestershire and the surrounding area (including the East Midlands Gateway and Magma Park), you are in the right place.
Concrete polishing is usually requested in 3 different sectors (commercial, industrial and residential), each with their respective characteristics:
BECOSAN® specialises in concrete polishing for the industrial sector in Leicestershire, especially on surfaces exceeding 1,000 square metres. Concrete polishing is not only carried out for aesthetic reasons, it is primarily carried out for functionality and safety. With high-tech machinery and an expert team, we transform huge surfaces into practical working areas. The result is a floor that is durable, easy to maintain and, above all, adapted to the demands of the industrial environment.
Concrete polishing in the commercial sector covers everything from shops, offices, restaurants to large surfaces. In our case, we specialise in concrete polishing for large surfaces and supermarkets of more than 1,000 square metres. These places demand high quality and resistant solutions due to the constant traffic and use.
Concrete polishing in the residential sector is in demand for floors in houses, terraces and patios. It provides a durable and aesthetically pleasing surface. Despite its popularity in the residential sector, we do not offer this service.
Traditional Concrete Polishing is a proven technique, involving a series of meticulous steps aimed at removing imperfections, improving strength and giving the surface an unparalleled shine. Each project carried out using this method ensures a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish, suitable for a variety of applications at Leicestershire.
This advanced system incorporates state-of-the-art machinery that allows for faster and more uniform polishing. Thanks to its ergonomic design and ability to cover large areas in record time, the Ride on System is the perfect choice for large industrial projects at Leicestershire. It also guarantees reduced downtime, lower operating costs and a premium finish that stands up to the highest demands.
Treatment
BECOSAN® treatment is a patented system based on Ride on System Concrete Polishing, and designed specifically for the treatment of concrete floors to improve their durability, appearance and wear resistance.
It is especially popular in industrial and commercial environments where concrete floors receive heavy traffic and need to maintain a polished and professional appearance.
We show you in detail the main steps we take to carry out the BECOSAN® treatment.
Because not all floors are the same, we adapt to both the technical demands of each floor and the requirements of each client.
Before diving in, we conduct a thorough assessment of the current state of the floor. This step is paramount to pinpoint areas requiring special attention and to determine the necessary level of polishing.
Every outstanding finish starts with meticulous preparation. We remove any existing coatings or residues, ensuring the surface is clean and primed for polishing. Moreover, we repair cracks or imperfections to guarantee a seamless finish.
Using specialised machinery and progressive grain diamond discs, we polish the surface in multiple passes, refining its smoothness with each stage. Every level of polishing further amplifies the floor’s shine and smooth texture.
To enhance the floor’s durability and strength, we apply a liquid densifier. This product seeps into the concrete, chemically reacting to solidify and compact the floor’s components.
At this stage, we provide sealing to equip the concrete to fend off potential stains or external elements, thereby extending its longevity and appearance.
With the surface almost at its zenith, we undertake the final rounds of polishing. This concluding process ensures a glossy and resilient finish.
SOLUTIONS
This project required a number of repairs to the floor and a stronger, more durable finish than was previously available.
The client, Prologis, is a major logistics manager that leases industrial premises throughout the UK. Following the termination of the lease of the previous tenant, who was in the timber industry, the warehouse had become very dirty, with paint and signage marks and a large amount of dust on the surface.
In order to re-let it, he needed all the quality guarantees, so he chose to trust us and called us to carry out all the work.
A project that required, in addition to concrete polishing, a major refurbishment of the floor.
Here we have a dedicated warehouse logistics centre that has suffered from the usual wear and tear over the years, resulting in patches, cracks, crevices and unevenness, as well as a lot of dirt and dust.
The client, Prologis, contacted us to carry out a complete refurbishment and our patented concrete polishing, which provided them with a guaranteed dustproof floor once the work was finished, with greater resistance to stains, friction and liquid absorption, as well as improved reflectance and ease of cleaning.
Here, we provide answers to frequently asked questions about our concrete polishing service in Leicestershire:
The BECOSAN® polished finish offers a combination of aesthetics, durability, and functional benefits that traditional concrete finishes may not provide. It’s especially designed to reduce dusting, resist wear, and provide a smoother surface, all while retaining the concrete’s natural appearance.
The duration of the concrete polishing process varies depending on factors such as the current condition of the floor, its size and the desired level of finish. In general, the throughput is 1000 square metres per day, but for a precise schedule tailored to your specific project, please contact us.
We primarily focus on larger projects, especially in the industrial sector. We consider projects that are over 1,000 square meters.
Post-polishing, BECOSAN® floors are relatively low-maintenance. Regular cleaning with a neutral pH cleaner and routine dusting should suffice. However, the exact maintenance can vary based on the environment and usage.
Yes, we stand by the quality of our work and offer warranties and guarantees specific to the services rendered.
We can carry out work in different zones and different phases to minimise disruption, furthermore, a treated floor can be used from the moment it is finished so disruption only occurs while we are working and here we can co-ordinate to minimise disruption.
