| Process: |
| Concrete Countertops,
Etc. incorporates a three-part component system, in conjunction
with our surface-reactant lithium sealer, which results in a product
which is more dense and more stain-resistant than any other concrete
surface being offered in today's market. We utilize a unique mix
design that replaces 35% of the Portland cement with a post-industrial
waste that makes the product stronger and more environmentally responsible.
Concrete Countertops, Etc. also makes use of the wastewater from
our polishing process in our mix design, helping to protect Florida's
already fragile water supply. |
