What are Chemical Floor Hardeners?

Chemical floor hardeners are used to chemically seal and harden concrete floors. These chemical hardeners act as a protective sealant to withstand great impact and strengthen the flooring substrate permanently. Floor hardener applications are specially ideal inside industrial plants, warehouses, storage silos, sewage plants, chemical processing facilities, refineries, and heavy pedestrian floor traffic areas, such as civic centers, sports arenas, stadiums, hospitals, airports, and museums.

These chemical floor hardeners are formulated out of chemical reactive products which help in hardening the concrete surfaces, compared to untreated concrete. The chemical hardeners are ready to use, liquid-based and comes with easy to follow instructions. Chemical Floor Hardeners  penetrate the concrete surface, filling any holes on the surface. This process produces a considerably thicker, reliable floor with enhanced durability.
