Integrally Colored Concrete: Unfading Beauty from Within

Integrally colored concrete offers a vibrant and long-lasting way to enhance your concrete surfaces. Unlike surface coloring techniques, color is incorporated throughout the entire concrete mix, resulting in a permanent and consistent aesthetic that won't fade, chip, or wear away over time. This makes it a perfect choice for high-traffic areas, both indoors and outdoors.

Choosing Integrally Colored Concrete

With a wide range of colors available, consider the overall design theme and desired effect.

Discuss your project specifications with a concrete professional to determine the optimal color dosage and finishing techniques.

 For best results, entrust the installation to experienced concrete contractors who understand the nuances of integrally colored concrete.

By choosing integrally colored concrete, you can add lasting beauty, functionality, and personality to your concrete projects. It’s a cost-effective way to achieve a unique and timeless look that will endure for years to come.

Here's a detailed breakdown of Integrally Colored Concrete

SG Granular Pigments, from Solomon Colors Inc., USA, are the key ingredient. These specially formulated, free-flowing, and low-dusting pigments are mixed directly into the concrete batch during the manufacturing process. The pigment dosage typically ranges from 1% to 4% of the cement content, ensuring a rich and consistent color throughout the concrete.

  • Fade Resistance: Unlike surface-applied color, integrally colored concrete retains its vibrancy for decades, even with constant exposure to sunlight and harsh weather conditions.
  • Uniform Color: Color is evenly distributed throughout the concrete, eliminating the risk of patchy or inconsistent appearance.
  • Durable Beauty: The color becomes an integral part of the concrete, making it resistant to chipping, flaking, or wearing away due to abrasion. This is particularly beneficial for high-traffic areas like walkways, patios, and commercial floors.
  • Design Versatility: A wide range of colors are achievable with SG Granular Pigments, allowing you to create stunning visual effects and complement any design theme.

Integrally colored concrete is a versatile option for both interior and exterior applications. It's commonly used for:

  • Interior flooring: Basements, kitchens, living rooms, commercial spaces
  • Exterior surfaces: Walkways, patios, pool decks, driveways, architectural elements
  • Countertops and furniture: Creates unique and decorative accents

Once the concrete is cured, you can further enhance its beauty and functionality with various finishing techniques:

  • Polishing: Creates a smooth, high-gloss surface that reflects light and enhances the color's vibrancy.
  • Sealing: Protects the concrete from stains, moisture, and wear-and-tear. A variety of sealers offer different finishes, from matte to glossy.
