Why Concrete?

SAFETY

FGS PermaShine is certified as ‘high-traction’ by the NFSI. Kept clean and dry, polished concrete floors are generally as safe or safer than plain concrete surfaces and much higher traction than waxed VCT, tile or polished marble. Even wet, FGS Permashine provides more traction than its competition. FGS Permashine can reduce the occurrence of ‘slip and fall’ accidents, which costs billions of dollars in litigation and damages to businesses each year.

 

BEAUTY

Businesses and even homeowners are catching on to the appeal of our smooth, high-luster floors, which can be kept natural or stained to replicate the look of polished stone. It’s also possible to produce a terrazzo look by grinding through the top few millimeters of the concrete surface to expose the aggregate. And FGS PermaShine’s variety of colors and stains create a unique look for any space. Whether you are looking for a clean industrial look, or the rich look of variegated marble, PermaShine can help your space shine.
