Concrete floor polishing specialists in Shropshire

BECOSAN® is a patented treatment system designed to strengthen and improve concrete floors in industrial and commercial environments. In Shropshire, demand is highly concentrated around specific employment and logistics areas where concrete floors take continuous wear from forklifts, pallet movement and daily cleaning routines.

Telford is the county’s most consistent industrial hub. Local planning and transport documentation identifies Halesfield, Stafford Park and Hortonwood as key strategic employment/industrial estates, and notes that a large share of goods deliveries are concentrated there. This cluster is also seeing new high-quality industrial development at Hortonwood, aimed at distribution and flexible manufacturing.

Shrewsbury forms a second practical cluster for BECOSAN projects. Greenhills Battlefield Enterprise Park is positioned as a premier commercial/industrial land opportunity with zoning for B1, B2 and B8 uses, which typically includes industrial and warehousing activity. Battlefield Enterprise Park is also established as a prime trade and retail park location, with operators commonly associated with trade counters and warehouse-type units.

Applications of concrete polishing in Shropshire

Industrial concrete polishing

Industrial concrete polishing in Shropshire is usually driven by practical operational issues: dusting that increases cleaning time, abrasion at turning points, joint edge wear near loading doors, and tyre marking on main forklift routes.

In Telford’s industrial estates (Hortonwood, Stafford Park, Halesfield), the typical requirement is to improve abrasion resistance and reduce dust in high-traffic aisles where distribution and manufacturing coexist. With ongoing warehouse development at Hortonwood, this also includes modern units that need strong performance under early operational traffic and racking loads.

In Shrewsbury’s Battlefield area, the use-case often includes trade counters and mixed commercial/industrial units that need floors to remain presentable and easy to clean under daily activity, frequent deliveries and occasional pallet handling.

BECOSAN® strengthens the concrete itself, delivering a hard-wearing, low-dust surface designed for demanding industrial use and long operating hours.

Commercial concrete polishing

Shropshire includes trade parks and commercial premises where concrete floors must stay consistently clean-looking and safe under daily footfall, trolley traffic and routine cleaning. Instead of relying on short-life coatings, BECOSAN® is designed for facilities that want predictable maintenance and long-term durability.

Residential concrete polishing

Although “polished concrete” is becoming more popular in homes, BECOSAN® does not offer residential services. Our expertise is focused on industrial and commercial concrete floors.

Types of concrete polishing available in Shropshire

Traditional Concrete polishing

A progressive polishing process that corrects surface imperfections, densifies the slab and improves abrasion resistance. It is suited to manufacturing spaces, workshops and mid-sized warehouses across Shropshire where a controlled finish and consistent performance are required.

Ride-on System Polishing

Ride-on polishing is recommended when scale, consistency and scheduling matter. In large warehouse environments like those expanding in Hortonwood, this method supports efficient delivery across extensive areas and helps structure works in phases without shutting down the entire building. It is also well suited to logistics-focused layouts in Telford’s strategic employment areas where traffic routes must remain safe and controlled during works.

Treatment

The BECOSAN® System

BECOSAN® combines mechanical polishing with densification and sealing to deliver a concrete floor that is dust-proof, durable and easy to clean. In Shropshire, it is commonly selected in industrial and trade environments where dust control, abrasion resistance and low maintenance directly affect safety and operating costs.

Treatment

Step by step concrete polishing process in Cumbria

Initial Assessment

On-site evaluation of the slab and how the facility operates, including forklift routes, turning points, loading door intensity and whether works must run around picking, dispatch or production.

Surface Preparation

Removal of coatings where needed, repair of cracks, joint work and correction of local defects to ensure the floor behaves consistently under traffic.

Micro grinding to remove surface microroughness

Multiple grinding passes reduce microroughness and porosity, helping to control dusting and reduce tyre marking in high-traffic aisles.

Densification and hardening

Application of a liquid densifier that strengthens the concrete structure and improves abrasion resistance for long-term industrial use.

Sealing and protection

Optional sealing to improve resistance to staining and certain chemicals, selected according to the building’s use and cleaning regime.

Final Polishing

Finishing passes to achieve the required finish level and improve reflectivity for safer and more efficient working conditions.

Projects

Concrete polishing case studies in the United Kingdom

Sainsbury - 60.000 m² - United Kingdom

In collaboration with Sunrise Real Estate, BECOSAN® refurbished a 60,000 m² warehouse. The result was a polished, dust-proof floor leased to Sainsbury’s.

Magma Industrial Park – 28.000 m² - United Kingdom

For Prologis, we rehabilitated a floor with cracks, dust and uneven areas. After our treatment, it became stain-resistant, durable and easier to clean.

FAQ

Concrete polishing services in Shropshire

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about our concrete polishing service in Shropshire.

Do you cover all areas of Shropshire

Yes. We work across Shropshire, with frequent activity around Telford and Shrewsbury due to the concentration of industrial estates, warehousing and trade parks.

Which industrial areas are most relevant for BECOSAN projects in Shropshire

The strongest concentration of industrial demand is typically found in Telford’s main industrial estates including Hortonwood, Stafford Park and Halesfield, plus Shrewsbury’s Battlefield and Greenhills enterprise and trade park area.

Can you work in live warehouses or active operations

Yes. We plan phased works by zones, shifts or weekends so picking, dispatch and production can continue safely, supported by clear traffic management.

Do you remove old coatings before polishing

Yes. If the slab has existing coatings or contaminated layers, we can remove them as part of surface preparation before the densification and polishing stages.

Do you handle joints cracks and local repairs before polishing

Yes. Preparation can include joint edge repairs, crack treatment and local levelling, especially around loading doors, turning areas and main traffic routes.

Why choose BECOSAN instead of a coating

Coatings can peel or crack under industrial traffic. BECOSAN® strengthens the concrete itself, creating a dust-free, harder-wearing surface with lower maintenance requirements.
