Concrete

IMPORTANT: Please note that concrete products are very heavy and their offload and installation needs to be carefully considered and planned.

DRESSED FINISH – DS

A dressed finish is the standard finish we offer on all of our units (unless otherwise specified). A dressed finish is a smooth surface achieved by hand rubbing to produce a flat matt surface.

TEXTURED FINISH – TF

An acid etch finish describes varying levels of texture applied by washing the units with different concentrations of acidic solution. An exposed aggregate finish is also available and uses various techniques to expose the aggregate to produce an interesting and colourful textured finish. Particularly useful to produce decorative solutions to slip hazards or anti vagrant criteria.

DELUXE POLISH – DP

A deluxe polished finish (to top of unit only) is a process which exposes a smooth finish to the concrete on the top face of the unit and exposes the aggregate underneath the surface (sides are dressed finish). It can be used to show the different colours of aggregate within the concrete to great aesthetic effect.

CONCRETE COLOURS

There is a wide range of colours and finishes for all concrete products. Our standard colours are light or standard grey, buff, white, black or red but we can also customise any of the mixes or create a new one to meet the project requirements. The standard concrete we produce is integrally coloured so the colour is the same throughout the product. This proves crucial in the event that a unit is damaged or chipped after being placed as the colour of the underlying material would not differ from the original product.
