Quartz Floor Systems by Blackline Coatings in Chicago and the western suburbs of Illinois. Coloured quartz aggregate floor systems built in layers for grip and wear.

Quartz is graded silica, coloured and broadcast into the resin in layers. It builds a thicker, denser floor than flake and it holds its texture, which is why it goes into commercial kitchens, wash bays and anywhere a floor gets treated badly. It also happens to look like fine stone.

• Graded quartz aggregate, broadcast in layers for real build
• The most slip resistant finish we offer, with grip you can set
• Takes traffic, wheels, heat and standing water
• Colour blended to spec, from near white to charcoal

Whatever goes on top, the slab underneath gets the same treatment first. It is ground back mechanically, the cracks and joints are repaired, and the surface is made flat and open enough for the resin to key into. That is the part of the job that decides whether the floor lasts, and it is the part nobody photographs.
