Concrete grinding in an industrial unit before coating

Mechanical Surface Profiling

Mechanical profiling removes unsuitable surface material and creates a bonding texture. Grinding, blasting and scarifying produce different results, so the process follows the substrate and the specified finish.

Tell us about the existing coating, contamination and proposed replacement system. We will define the preparation method and any additional cleaning or repair required before handover.

This is part of our surface preparation & grinding service. Related work: CSP surface profiling, diamond grinding and shot blasting.

Service Inclusive

Every project may include:

Site Review

For mechanical surface profiling, the method is chosen around the floor and the next system.

Existing coatings and contaminants
Slab hardness and condition
Access, power and dust control

Method Selection

Grinding, blasting or scarifying, chosen by result needed.

Tooling matched to the slab
Dust extraction connected
Test area checked first

Repairs Before Finish

Damage is corrected so it does not telegraph through.

Crack and joint repair
Spall and pit filling
Substrate correction

The Work Itself

The steps carried out on site for this system.

Profiling method chosen by target CSP
Even profile across the whole area
Edges matched to field profile

Profile Check

The prepared surface is checked before handover.

Profile across the whole area
Edges matched to the field
Repairs marked for the next step

Handover & Care

A clean, ready surface for the next system.

Dust and debris removed
Surface left dry and clean
Notes for the next trade

Surface

Floor Performance Depends On:

Target Profile

Thin coatings and overlays need different CSP.

Surface Hardness

Hard slabs need different tooling.

Substrate Condition

Hardness, cracks and weak layers.

Existing Coatings

Layers that must come off.

Contamination

Oil, sealers and curing compounds.

Dust Control

Occupied or sensitive areas.

Moisture Vapour

Readings before the next system.

Next System

What the profile must suit.

FAQ

What is a concrete surface profile (CSP)?

The ICRI concrete surface profile scale gives contractors and manufacturers a common language for roughness. Each coating system specifies the CSP range it needs to bond properly — thin coatings need less profile, thicker systems more. We prepare to the range the product's data sheet calls for, and check it against reference chips rather than by eye.

Why can't coatings be installed directly over untreated concrete?

Untreated concrete often contains contamination, weak surface layers, inconsistent porosity and moisture-related issues that interfere with proper bonding and long-term flooring stability.

What is concrete surface profiling?

Surface profiling refers to creating a controlled texture within the concrete slab to improve coating adhesion, resin penetration and overall flooring system performance.
