Polished concrete is a flooring material achieved through a multistep process involving mechanical grinding, honing, and polishing with bonded abrasives. This process transforms dull-looking concrete floors into bright, polished, shiny surfaces, bringing them to an equal level by removing stains and any rough surfaces.
The primary product categories within polished concrete include densifiers and hardeners, sealers and crack fillers, and conditioners. Densifiers and hardeners play a crucial role in preventing dusting of the floor by hardening the concrete surface and reducing pitting. Manufacturing methods for polished concrete encompass both dry and wet processes. Polished concrete finds application in both new construction and renovation projects, serving residential and non-residential areas.

Major trends in the forecast period include sustainable building practices, architectural aesthetics, durability and longevity, residential adoption, commercial and retail spaces.
The increasing demand for renovation and remodeling is a key factor driving the growth of the polished concrete market. The rising need for polished concrete, particularly in the construction of hotel flooring and other non-residential buildings, significantly contributes to this growth. Factors such as durability, low maintenance, ease of cleaning, advancements in technology, and the use of glossy, attractive flooring are all promoting the adoption of polished concrete in non-residential construction. For instance, in May 2024, Houzz Inc., a US-based company, reported that renovation expenditures have risen substantially over the past three years, with the median spending increasing by 13% to reach £17,000 in 2023. Thus, the growing demand for renovation and remodeling is expected to propel the growth of the polished concrete market.
The anticipated growth in residential building construction is expected to further propel the polished concrete market. Residential buildings encompass structures specifically designed for people to live in, ranging from single-family houses to apartments and townhouses. Polished concrete finds application in residential buildings, providing a contemporary and customizable flooring solution that combines aesthetic appeal with durability, meeting the demand for modern and low-maintenance interior design. In June 2023, data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development indicated significant growth in privately owned home starts, reaching a seasonally adjusted annual pace of 1,631,000, a 21.7% increase over the revised April 2023 prediction. The rising trend in residential building construction, as evidenced by increased home starts and completions, is a key factor driving the growth of the polished concrete market.
A notable trend in the polished concrete market is the emergence of strategic partnerships, where major players collaborate to leverage resources and expand market reach. An example of such collaboration occurred in May 2022 when Blue Point Capital Partners, a US-based private equity firm, and its BPCP III concrete industry platform, SASE Company, formed a partnership with Bartell Global.
