Nox-Crete

Nox-Crete Products Group  Contact Us  Specs  LEED
Duro-Nox LS and Duro-Nox LSC hardeners, sealers and densifiers penetrate and chemically react with concrete, forming a permanent bond that protects concrete floors from abrasion, staining and dusting. Floors are stronger, denser and better protected. The lithium silicate formuation of these products mean that no rinsing or disposal of hazardous rinse water is needed.


Prosoco

PROSOCO
Consolideck® LS (lithium silicate) and LS/CS (lithium silicate/colloidal salts) harden and densify concrete floors, new or old. Unlike traditional potassium and sodium hardeners and densifiers, LS and LS/CS go on without scrubbing and require no flushing afterward. Buff treated floors to an immediate shine, or let traffic do it for you in about 6 months.
