As one of Northern Ireland’s top ready-mix concrete and decorative concrete suppliers, RTU has seen these products transcend the ranks as a building staple to become an aspirational lifestyle concept. Designers, architects and consumers are increasingly finding inspiration in its form and using concrete to make powerful creative statements in their commercial and residential projects.
Zircon Polished Concrete is an innovative RTU product that supplies an ever-growing demand for this hardwearing and low maintenance product. Applications include seamless concrete floors, custom-made barbecues, and countertops, which boast highly tactile and versatile finishes that look amazing and provide customers with a sense of reliability, strength and raw beauty.
There are currently six colour varieties including the new Ambra Sands (pictured below), that can be polished in one of three ways: a deep grind for a full marbled effect, a light grind to show some aggregate or a sleek polished finish that shows no aggregate at all. These options can achieve homely and warm finishes to cool and edgy for interior styles that range from industrial character to contemporary to modern and sleek.
