WHAT IS THE BEALSTONE OVERLAY SYSTEM?

STUNNING HIGHLY POLISHED CONCRETE FLOOR OVERLAYS POURED AND POLISHED TO DELIVER PREMIUM SUSTAINABLE FLOORING SOLUTIONS.

Rapid Set TRU® Self Levelling polished concrete systems are a high-quality, innovative, self-levelling designer floor, based on special cement technology. Ideal where time is a constraint, high early strength, durability and low shrinkage setting are desired. TRU® maintains workability for up to 20 minutes and is ready for foot traffic after 2 to 3 hours.

TRU® floors can be polished to a high sheen 24 hours after placement and possess the same qualities of a regular polished concrete floor. Final thickness is from 7 mm to 12 mm; we can go up to 35 mm but we recommend building the floor up with a regular self-levelling screed if this thickness is required.

Additional individual effects can be created and floors can be stained to various colours.

A STUNNING ARCHITECTURAL FLOOR WITH A LIFESPAN AS LONG AS YOUR BUILDING

Highlights

  • RESISTANCE
    All the components of BEALSTONE® mineral plaster are fused together to form a highly resistant coating and give that unique look of granito, also called “Terrazzo”. Thanks to this high technical resistance, this material guarantees an unmatched life span.

  • THIN THICKNESS
    The BEALSTONE® Terrazzo solution can be adapted to all projects thanks to its application in very thin layers (from 5mm to several centimetres), which makes it an essential asset for renovation work.

  • CUSTOMIZATION
    The neutral base of the BEALSTONE® Terrazzoflooring is pigmentable in the mass, which allows for unparalleled individuality. All colors are possible. The combinations of colors and aggregates are infinite and allow for completely customizable results.

  • MINERAL
    The BEALSTONE® coating is distinguished from all other solutions on the market by its mineral appearance. Its texture offers a natural, warm and high quality result.

  • ADHESION
    The BEALSTONE® granite-based coating for floors, walls and furniture adheres and applies to a multitude of surfaces (mineral, tile, MDF…). Walls, floors and furniture, horizontal or vertical surfaces, interior or exterior. Transform all your spaces according to your desires.

  • DRY AND/OR WET SANDING
    The BEALSTONE® “Terrazzo” system can be dry-sanded to facilitate work in thin layers. The possibility of dry and/or wet sanding allows greater flexibility on the worksite and avoids collateral damage.

  • ECO-RESPONSIBILITY
    The BEALSTONE® Terrazzo product is made in Belgium and composed of 97% natural ingredients sourced in Europe. Its formula is neutral and can be pigmented by the craftsman directly on-site, which allows for more ecological transportation and avoids product waste. Since its formulation favors the use of local aggregates, its environmental impact is considerably reduced.

Fields of application

The BEALSTONE® floor, wall and furniture coating is ideal for creating modern, continuous and seamless spaces with a strong Terrazzo style. Its thickness can be adjusted to suit each project, from 2 mm to several centimetres. It can be poured on site or prefabricated in the workshop and can be used to cover walls, floors and furniture, both indoors and outdoors. It respects existing functional joints.

In any room, this Terrazzo flooring perfectly matches the surrounding decor, whether contemporary or period. Its combination with other materials – wood, metal, steel, etc. – reveals its splendour even more.The BEALSTONE® product can be used to restore old Terrazzo coverings, particularly those from the Art Deco period, almost identically.

Preparation of sub-floor

Sub floor must be load-bearing and resistant to compression and tension. Must be dry and cleaned from contamination, separation agents or loose debris, bond strength min. 1.5 N/mm2. The demands of DIN 18365 and DIN 18560 refer. Joints in the underground have to be taken over. Bealstone® is applied on the prepared and primed sub-base in a final thickness of minimum 7 mm. It is ready for polishing 24 hours after application; surfaces can be polished to a high, dense sheen.
