At BECOSAN®, we specialize in durable, dust-free, and low-maintenance factory flooring. Our polished concrete system strengthens the surface itself, ensuring long-term resistance to heavy traffic, impacts, and wear—without the failures of coatings like epoxy.
Solutions
In any industrial facility, the floor is literally the foundation of operations. High-quality factory flooring is crucial to ensure safety, productivity, and longevity in factories and warehouses. BECOSAN® offers specialist industrial factory flooring solutions that give your facility a durable, dust-free, and easy-to-maintain surface. Our approach – honed by years of experience in concrete floor improvement – delivers floors that can withstand heavy traffic and tough conditions while keeping maintenance costs down.
Whether you run a bustling warehouse or a manufacturing plant, upgrading to a BECOSAN® floor means investing in a safer, harder-wearing factory floor that supports your business for the long term.
Industrial floors endure constant stress: forklifts rumbling, pallets dropping, spills, foot traffic, and more. If the flooring is not up to scratch, a busy factory can quickly suffer issues like cracks, dust generation, slippery spots, or even damage to machinery and vehicles. Here’s why choosing a high-quality factory flooring system is so important:
A properly installed floor reduces trip hazards and, if slip-resistant, helps prevent accidents. In a factory with high traffic, an anti-slip surface and clearly marked zones contribute to a safer work environment, cutting down the risk of injury and downtime.
Industrial factory flooring must be hard-wearing. Robust materials (like treated concrete) resist abrasion from forklift wheels and impact from dropped tools or materials. This means fewer potholes, chips, or repairs over time.
Smooth, sealed flooring makes daily cleaning straightforward – an important factor for factories, especially in sectors like food or pharma. Dust-proof surfaces (like BECOSAN® polished concrete) also improve air quality by eliminating concrete dust, creating a healthier workspace.
An uneven or deteriorating floor causes extra wear on machines and forklift tires. A level, well-finished surface ensures machinery can operate smoothly, thereby protecting your equipment and inventory.
Many industries have standards (e.g. HACCP in food processing) that require floors to be impervious and sanitary. Moreover, a clean, well-maintained factory floor projects professionalism when clients or auditors visit your facility
Choosing BECOSAN® means choosing expertise and a flooring system at the cutting edge of industrial floor technology. We specialise in polished concrete flooring using our patented BECOSAN® treatment – an innovative process that transforms old or new concrete into a dust-proof, polished surface with exceptional performance. Our focus is on delivering continuous concrete floors that are seamless, glossy, and extremely durable, ideal for industrial use.
Our signature solution is the BECOSAN® polished concrete floor. Through a combination of industrial grinding, concrete densification, and sealing, we turn porous concrete slabs into high-performance factory floors:
The BECOSAN® treatment significantly increases surface hardness. The floor becomes resistant to abrasion, impacts and heavy loads – perfect for factories with constant forklift traffic or heavy machinery.
By densifying and sealing the concrete, we eliminate the problem of concrete dust (“dusting”) common in untreated floors. The result is a dust-free floor that is easy to sweep or scrub clean, helping you maintain a cleaner environment with less effort.
Despite the shine, BECOSAN® floors can be finished to meet slip-resistant standards (we hold DIN 51131 anti-slip certification). This ensures your factory floor remains safe even when occasionally wet – an important factor for accident prevention.
Polished concrete doesn’t peel or wear out like coatings can. There’s no resin layer to reapply every few years. A BECOSAN® floor is a long-term solution that minimises maintenance costs. Routine cleaning is usually all that’s needed to keep it in top condition, and you won’t be shutting down production for frequent floor repairs or recoating.
Our sealed concrete floors repel oils, chemicals, and other liquids. For industries prone to spills (food processing, automotive fluids, etc.), this resistance means easier cleanup and a floor that won’t degrade or stain when exposed to harsh substances.
We know that as a facility manager you may be considering various factory flooring options, such as epoxy or polyurethane coatings, in addition to polished concrete. Each option has its place, but it’s important to choose what best fits your operations:
Epoxy floors create a solid, colored surface often used in factories. While they provide good initial protection and can be non-slip, they can peel, crack or yellow over time, especially under heavy traffic or if the concrete wasn’t perfectly prepared. They also typically require re-coating every 5–10 years. For some sectors, epoxy is suitable, but one should plan for periodic maintenance and ensure proper installation to avoid common epoxy floor problems.
PU coatings (or PU concrete, a resin-cement blend) are known for flexibility and chemical resistance. These can handle thermal shock (e.g. in freezers or food factories with hot wash-downs) better than epoxy. However, not all industries need this level of chemical resistance, and like epoxy, polyurethane floors are coatings that eventually may need refurbishing.
Rather than adding a layer on top of your slab, our method enhances the concrete itself. This means nothing to peel or fail. The polished floor becomes an integral part of the structure – extremely tough and long-lasting. It’s especially ideal for warehouses, logistics centers, and production floors where durability and low maintenance are priority. Polished concrete also has eco-benefits (no solvent-based epoxies, and improved light reflectivity can reduce lighting energy use).
BECOSAN® is a European leader in industrial floor renovation, and our team has transformed hundreds of thousands of square metres of factory flooring across the UK and Europe. Here’s what sets us apart:
We focus exclusively on industrial floors – it’s our core competence. Our technicians understand the unique challenges of factory environments and are trained in the proprietary BECOSAN® polishing process. From assessing floor flatness to repairing joints or cracks before treatment, we ensure every step is done to the highest standard.
Our flooring solutions are trusted by clients in logistics, manufacturing, food processing, aviation and more. (See our case studies showing how dusty, worn factory floors were converted into glossy, high-performance surfaces.) We consistently deliver results that improve safety and productivity in our clients’ facilities.
BECOSAN® can take care of everything needed for your factory floor upgrade. This includes surface preparation (removing old epoxy coatings, repairing damage or levelling uneven areas), applying line markings after polishing, and even expansion joint repairs. It’s a turnkey solution, managed with minimal hassle for you.
We stand by our work. Our polished concrete floors come with a guarantee for their performance (e.g. dust-proofing and hardness). We aim for your 100% satisfaction and will address any issue, but thanks to our meticulous process, issues are rare. You get a factory floor that you’ll love – and that will serve you for years or decades.
Not sure what you need? We’re here to help, not to push a one-size solution. If polished concrete isn’t suitable for a specific area of your factory, we’ll tell you and can suggest alternatives. Our goal is to ensure you get the right flooring solution for your operational needs and budget.

Using our BECOSAN® concrete polishing system, we delivered a seamless, dust-proof surface with enhanced durability and resistance to abrasion, stains, and liquid penetration. The transformation played a key role in securing the lease to retail giant Sainsbury’s, making it one of the most significant real estate transactions of the year.
This logistics hub faced severe wear and tear over the years, leading to cracks, patches, uneven areas, and excessive dust accumulation.
Prologis needed a factory flooring solution that would restore and enhance the facility’s operational efficiency. Our BECOSAN® treatment eliminated dust, improved surface hardness, and created a smooth, easy-to-maintain floor, resistant to friction, stains, and liquid absorption. The result?
