CONCRETE PERFORMANCE FROM START TO FINISH
Green Umbrella® GreenIce Cure & Cap™ system is an interior or exterior @EarlyAge™ integral concrete cure with a wear-guard that performs for the day of the race forward. This three-part system utilizes a cure, IceStart™, during finishing, and a fixative, IceStop™, immediately after troweling. IceCap™ is a subtopical sealer that cross-links to the GreenIce Cure™ to preserve the architectural concrete finish by preventing deterioration or contaminant penetration. IceCap gives a high gloss to the refined concrete surface for improved reflectivity and aesthetic appeal. This system results in an unconventional, consolidated, and refined surface that promotes the best concrete practices, improving edges and FF/Fl numbers. IceCap will protect concrete during construction if abrasive polishing is scheduled for a later stage, removing the need for expensive floor protection. The GreenIce Cure & Cap system brings industry-leading hardness, density, and abrasion resistance while retaining the maximum amount of moisture within the concrete during curing for an unconventional architectural concrete floor that gives high-speed installation from start to finish.

THE GREENICE CURE & CAP SYSTEM
The GreenIce Cure & Capâ„¢ system is a three-part patent-protected concrete curing solution designed to cure concrete faster, increase abrasion resistance, and add a slip-resistant, high-gloss finish that looks like ice!
IceStartâ„¢ is a unique curing agent used to ensure an adequately cured floor and is the first of the two-part GreenIce Cureâ„¢ system. It uses a treatment and trowel process to achieve high-performance floors.
IceStopâ„¢ is the second part of the GreenIce Cureâ„¢ system. IceStop is applied after IceStartâ„¢ to create a protected and properly cured concrete slab. After the floor is properly cured, IceStop increases the strength and longevity of the slab.
Top it off with IceCapâ„¢ to add a beautiful high-gloss finish and achieve peak protection.
After the floor has been treated with IceStartâ„¢ and IceStopâ„¢, IceCapâ„¢ is applied to achieve the same brilliance as a traditional profiled, honed, and polished floor. In addition to the unparalleled high-gloss finish, IceCap adds additional UV protection and abrasion resistance.
