Is there an environmentally friendly element to polished flooring?

Yes. An interesting fact about concrete is that it’s made out of ingredients close to the job site, so the product isn’t shipped over long distances. This makes it an environmentally friendly product by reducing carbon emissions involved with transportation.  Concrete is a natural source of energy as well; it attracts the natural cooling abilities into the building, while it draws sunlight in the winter in order to produce heat. With polished concrete, you will see a difference in your energy bill. Grinding concrete dust can be reused or recycled, which is another way it benefits the environment.

With the many positive qualities that polished concrete possesses, it’s no wonder why many engineers and architects recommending it. For an environmentally friendly floor, it’s a wise idea to choose polished concrete.
