WE WENT TO THE DRAWING BOARD TO PUT TOGETHER A BASE DEFENSE FOR YOUR CONCRETE

Why Green Umbrella BaseDefense ?

A good team is a team whose strengths complement one another, a good team plays well together.

It is important that chemistry applied to concrete follows the same principle. Concrete treatments that complement one another; coupled with the proper mechanically ground, honed, and polished floor can create a winning combination for your polished concrete needs.

The Green Umbrella™ BaseDefense System is made up of two key players:

Green Umbrella™ DryShield has one of the highest abrasion resistance levels on the market.

To finish the lineup Green Umbrella™ RTU Microfilm offers a repairable surface layer making Green Umbrella™ BaseDefense System a team that has you covered.

Testing:

Reference – ASTM D-1308

Testing was completed on 1 cubic inch concrete samples that had been treated with a three-part protocol using DryShield, Shield & Enhance and Microfilm (or RTU Microfilm). Each cube was completely immersed in the respective chemicals for 48 hours. No visually perceptible changes occurred in any sample surface texture or appearance (color).

Execution: Process, Equipment & Abrasives

Green Umbrella™ equipment and abrasives are designed specifically for wet grinding. Equipped with a standard quick change system to promote even abrasive wear and quick field changes cutting downtime on GHP projects.

The wet process eliminates airborne crystalline silica dust and its potential health hazards such as silicosis due to the inhalation of these dangerous airborne particulates improving IAQ (Indoor Air Quality). Propane is one of the cleanest burning fossil fuels, cutting emissions and leaving a smaller carbon footprint than a typical electric model.
