Application

Suitable for new concrete floors in all industrial areas subject to the heaviest traffic such as:

  • Loading bays.
  • Trucking lanes.
  • Car parks.
  • Warehouse floors.
  • Repair workshops
  • Machine shops, etc.

Description

Nitoflor Sicaltop is a floor hardener made with selected and graded silicon carbide and alumina-based aggregates, Portland cement and special additives, allowing it to provide an extremely hard wearing surface to new concrete floors. Some of its features include:

  • Non-rusting, hard wearing surface.
  • Abrasion and slip resistance.
  • Monolithic bond with substrate.
