An essential procedure for floors that begin to deteriorate and produce dust during operation. Even an intact concrete floor can emit cement dust, which disrupts work, contaminates products, and negatively affects the health of personnel.
Why does concrete get dusty?
- The surface layer is damaged or not strong enough
- There is no hardening during the installation of the floor
- Exposure to moisture, temperatures, and chemicals
- Aging and microcracks
If you don't do anything, the dust will settle on the equipment, worsen the working conditions, and the floor will lose its strength and appearance.
What causes dedusting
- Strengthening the top layer of concrete
- Reduction of dust formation to almost zero
- Increased wear resistance
- Protection against moisture and chemical penetration
- Preparation of the base for finishing
How is dedusting carried out
- Surface cleaning and grinding
- Treatment with a hardening compound (lithium or sodium silicate)
- Absorption and crystallization of the composition in the concrete structure
- Final dusting and, if necessary, polishing
Where it is especially important
- Warehouse and production facilities
- Food and pharmaceutical warehouses
- Workshops and service stations
- Outbuildings
- Logistics areas and hangars
Dusting is a quick and inexpensive way to extend the life of your floor and improve its performance without major repairs.
