There are a number of factors that make concrete the ideal flooring for a superstore. Our experts have compiled some of its top qualities highlighting why it makes such a great choice for a long-lasting shop floor.
Concrete flooring is incredibly hard-wearing and can easily deal with a superstore’s substantial footfall and the constant stresses put upon it such as the constant roll of customer trolley’s, heavy product cages, and portable shelving and storage units.
At Nationwide Concreting we conduct a pre-pour ground survey to ensure the ground is ready for installation and minimise any delays. We then prepare the area using armoured joints to allow us to cast the floor quickly and efficiently.
Believe it or not, concrete is available in a variety of finishes. A brush or tamped finish creates a textured appearance that has excellent anti-slip and drainage qualities good for superstores with an area prone to getting wet (such as outdoor garden centres). A power floated finish on the other hand, gives an attractive polished effect that is not only aesthetically pleasing but is also extremely hard and shockproof, great for the main shop floor.
Concrete is easy to maintain but we still advise you follow some good practice guidelines to keep the store’s floor looking at its best. These include cleaning any spillages immediately, regular sweeping and cleaning and patch testing any cleaning products to ensure they’re suitable for use on concrete floors. Your expert at Nationwide Concreting will advise you on full care instructions.
