Concrete sealers are the quickest, easiest and most effective product for protecting plain or decorative concrete, sealing it against grime, wear, spills and traffic and enhancing its durability. For example, sealing concrete floors in commercial and industrial environments will ensure the long-term maintenance and appearance of the concrete surface for a much longer period of time compared to if it was left unprotected.
The two common types of sealers are film-forming sealers and penetrating sealers, but the aim of both types of product is to prolong the life of your concrete, enrich and preserve the appearance, provide protection against contaminants, stains and moisture, and make it easier to clean and maintain your concrete.
Film Forming Sealers
Film-forming sealers, also known as film-coating, surface-coating or topical sealers, coat the entire surface. The sealer adheres to the pores of the concrete and sits on top of the surface creating a protective layer. They offer excellent protection from moisture and spills, are highly durable, and are easy to maintain and reapply. The three common types of film forming sealers include acrylic sealers, polyurethane sealers and epoxy sealers.
Penetrating Sealers
Penetrating sealers retain a natural-looking finish whilst protecting the concrete surface from water, stains and contaminants. These sealers penetrate into the capillaries of the concrete to form a long-lasting, durable barrier of protection against the ingress of water-borne pollutants and salts. Penetrating sealers are often used in indoor and outdoor applications for concrete, porous natural stone and concrete pavers.
