Decorative concrete

Decorative concrete, the creative application of concrete in construction, has a rich history dating back hundreds of years. Initially used for structural purposes, it evolved to incorporate aesthetics, with techniques like stamping and staining, transforming mundane concrete into visually appealing surfaces.

Today, the decorative concrete sector's products and services find extensive application across various construction sectors, including residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects.

Admixtures, surface coatings, and polished concrete equipment enhance the durability and aesthetic appeal of floors, driveways, and outdoor spaces, while dust management systems ensure safe and efficient work environments.

In the realm of decorative concrete, recent innovations have revolutionized the industry. Incorporating digitisation has enabled precise design customization, while sustainable additives and recycling methods contribute to eco-friendly construction practices.

Elsewhere, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in concrete production and application processes has significantly enhanced efficiency and quality control, setting new standards in the sector.

The UK's decorative concrete sector is thriving, with a projected market value of £300 million in 2023. This figure is projected to witness a 5% annual growth rate, fuelled by increasing demand for sustainable and visually appealing construction solutions.

Leading suppliers, including Procter Johnson and Concrete Technology Ltd will be at the UK Concrete Show 2024 and have been pivotal in driving the sector's growth, providing first-class products and innovative solutions.
