Why choose MicroCrete® Microcement?
With a traditional polished concrete floor, depending on the mineral materials used and dispersion of aggregate, you will never know what the final floor finish will look like until it has been ground and polished. With Microcement the client is able to see and choose the colour, tone and finished effect before the floor is actually installed.
Our Microcement system has proven flexibility due to the nature of the added polymers. Whereas traditional some polished concrete floors may be brittle, Microcement is less prone to cracking and with the use of pioneering technology in our specialist sealants which are less likely to stain in the same way as a traditional polished concrete floor.
Installation is only required are 2-3mm, so Microcement is particularly suitable the residential and domestic market where substrate or floor height availability is not possible. This system is also a particular favorite within environments where noise or access is an issue.

Does the application of Microcement include any additional support or the provision for a fibreglass mesh or tanking tape?
Including a fibreglass mesh or tanking tape often provides to provide an additional layer of support to the surfaces applied. Using a fibreglass mesh or crack fabric tape can help provide a much stronger and more stable substrate for the application of the finishing layers.
Without the use of mesh/fabric, any residual movement could reflect through to the finished surface and result in a much higher chance of compromise.
Any resulting cracking or compromise can lead to water ingress and, ultimately, failure, and water ingress resulting in an extremely costly repair bill.
