Prosoco Consolideck lithium Silicate Floor Hardeners

Prosoco has introduced Consolideck LS and LS/CS, two new lithium silicate floor hardeners designed as an alternative to hardeners with sodium silicate or potash.

Consolideck LS is a premium sealer, hardener and densifier that creates insoluble calcium silicate hydrate within concrete pores. It's easier to apply than conventional sodium or potassium silicate hardeners, penetrates without scrubbing and needs no flushing after application. The material helps floors resist water, salt and chemical impact. Finally, lithium is the only chemical element known to suppress surface alkali silicate reaction.

LS's economical cousin, Consolideck LS/CS, boasts similar properties but is made with lithium silicate and colloidal silica. Floors finished with LS/CS test out at more than four times the hardness of untreated floors, compared to LS, which is more than five times as hard.

Both products are applied as a nonexpansive gel that will not absorb water, and both leave a surface sheen. To learn more, visit www.prosoco.com.
