Choosing Integral Color Concrete For Durability

By Patty Goff


Trends always change and decor, and thankfully so. For one thing, there is technology and changes that it brings, but there is also innovation and great design ideas. With flooring, both indoors and out, manufacturers and designers give consumers more alternatives, for example. Below, see why it's best to choose integral color concrete to increase property value immediately.

Sometimes there are trends, and other times there is just timeless design. To have timeless design, something has to be durable, for starters, as with flooring surfaces and such. No one, for the longest time, ever considered the beauty that could be in concrete. Generally, it is considered flooring in industrial buildings, or ground cover in exterior landscapes.

As such, it is considered cold, boring, and sometimes even unattractive. Maybe so, until someone did consider it could be rendered attractive through a process that integrates color into it. That tone could be any one that the designer decides to use. From there, it is coated with a protective sealer to ensure durability and longevity.

Since this innovative design was first used, it has moved the entire industry, and people from all walks of life are embracing it. It has been seen as a new and bold counter top, either for counters or islands in kitchens, but also in bathrooms in homes and buildings. It's beauty is all about the custom look one gets when the application is completed.

When it comes to counters and interior flooring, many are done through a custom application. As this is completed, one will never find two surfaces looking the exact same. Of course, this all has to do with the actual color choice, the design variations, and so on. As well, there is the high gloss or matte finish that the consumer can choose from to pull it all together.

While all this is great, integral color works with coloring the concrete while it is in the mixing stage. Therefore, the shade goes right through, the top right through to the bottom. This is true whether it is cast in place or precast. The customer ends up with a product that is meant to last, without its integrity being affected, no matter what its size or thickness.

Simplicity of maintenance is another benefit to that attracts many customers. It can easily be accessorized to warm up the area, although the choice of tone already adds warmth to the surface. So, it looks great on its own, or dressed to the maximum, wherever it is applied.

This is a wonderful idea in home interiors and exteriors as well. Consider a deck surrounding an in-ground pool completed in a shade that suits the backyard in its entirety. Everything is just blended perfectly to ensure a seamless design. Moreover, it can be made to mimic natural stone or other "flooring" options but all with the true benefits that concrete has to offer. Nothing can be more attractive, easy to maintain, and cost-effective as this solution. That's why it's a popular choice with beautifying town halls, large office and condominium buildings and more.
