Concrete Alternative for Allergen Sensitivities
April 2, 2009
Concrete as a healthy building material
“Its been reported that indoor air pollution is the cause of up to 50% of illnesses. Common sources of this pollution include out gassing from toxic paints and finishes, carpeting, manufactured wood products containing glues high in formaldehyde and cleaning products.
Carpeting is one of the worst offenders. New synthetic carpeting can outgas over 100 different volatile organic compounds (VOCs). And whether made of synthetic or natural materials, carpet is difficult to clean and becomes a haven for dust particles, pollutants, and bacterial growth. Tens of millions of microorganisms can be found in a square foot of carpeting. Carpet can also be a major source of mold, especially if it becomes wet and the water isn’t removed completely.
Clean environments, free of dust, mildew and other pollutants can be achieved with interior concrete floors. Concrete floors, stained with nontoxic pigments to be aesthetically appealing, are a healthier alternative to carpeting because they do not emit harmful VOCs and are easy to sweep clean.”
(Excerpt from ‘Why Concrete Is A Healthy Alternative’ by Anne Balogh of The Concrete Network)
Epoxy Decorative and Waterproof Floor Coatings
March 20, 2009
Another advantage of decorative epoxy coatings and overlays is that they’re waterproof. So, for instance, if you have a multi-level home, surfacing your bath or laundry room with a seamless waterproof overlay material will create not only a solid durable decorative surface but eliminate the huge potential mess or damage from water seeping below the surface or to lower level floors in the event of minor unexpected “floods” or overflows.

Decorative Concrete Stamping for Repairs
March 1, 2009
You’ve probably thought of stamped concrete for new concrete only, but actually, decorative concrete resurfacing is excellent for concrete driveway, patio or sidewalk repairs for a traditional gray surface or decorative design.
Decorative Stamped Concrete Driveway
Splatter textures and knockdown finishes are perhaps the most widely installed applications primarily due to the combination of versatility in color and pattern.
Ideal for commercial and residential applications such as driveways, parking garages, sidewalks, patios and especially pool decks, splatter textures and knockdown finishes also offer the added bonus of providing safe skid resistance where chance of rain or sprinklers is applicable.
Three Stamped Concrete Patterns
Achieved with Elite Crete THIN-FINISH™, splatter textures and knockdown finishes were originally designed and engineered to restore surface deteriorated and stained concrete surfaces with a new, yet skid resistant finish, thus eliminating the cost, hassle and downtime of tearing out and replacing the existing concrete substrate.
Because THIN-FINISH™ is an engineered, polymer modified cementitious coating, it is actually stronger and more durable than conventional concrete applications, making it the ideal surface for virtually all concrete.
Random slate pattern
Popular patterns are achieved by using THIN-FINISH™ in conjunction with QUICK-PATTERN™ stencils. Available in numerous styles, these stencils offer the unique look that homeowners and architects are looking for.
