Advantages And Disadvantages of Inorganic Cement Raised Floors

What is Inorganic Cement Raised Floors?

Inorganic Cement Raised Floors (FRC access floors) is made of silicate, inorganic fiber, mineral fiber, quartz sand, etc, once-molded after high pressure.The panel has no volatile toxic chemicals and radiation, and can be decomposed completely.Its service time is the same as the building. Each panel has hole for wires, four corners supported by pedestals, with no stringers.Good flatness and solid feeling. Finishes can be laminate flooring, PVC, carpet, etc.

I. Advantages of Inorganic Cement Raised Floors

1. Low cost:

Cement floors have low cost, not only the material cost is not high, but also the construction labor cost is not too high, which is suitable for economical decoration needs.

2. High wear resistance:

The surface of cement floors is hard and not easy to wear. It can be used for a long time, especially suitable for the chewing and scratching of family pets.

3. Easy to care:

Cement floors are not afraid of moisture, nor are they easily affected by chemical splashes. They only need to be wiped at ordinary times, which is very suitable for home environments.

4. Strong plasticity:

The cement floor can be made very beautiful by grinding, polishing, dyeing and other processes.

II. Disadvantages of  Inorganic Cement Raised Floors

1. Not easy to construct:

Cement floors require high construction conditions, construction workers need to have a certain level of skills, and the construction process takes a long time and the waiting time is long.

2. High hardness:

Cement floors are very hard and solid, so the feet feel hard. Walking on them for a long time will increase the pressure on the knees and ankles and increase the risk of injury.

3. Poor anti-slip performance:

cement floors are easily wetted by water stains and become particularly slippery, so they are not suitable for use in areas prone to slipping.

4. Single color tone:

cement floors have limitations and cannot show rich characteristics in color. They are basically dominated by gray tones.

III. Applicable scenarios of  Inorganic Cement Raised Floors

1. Industrial field:

cement floors are widely used in various industrial fields and equipment use environments because of their hardness and strong wear resistance.

2. Civil engineering field:

cement floors are mixed with wood, self-leveling, floor tiles, etc., and are suitable for floor construction of concrete buildings.

3. Home environment:

cement floors are relatively economical and are suitable for old house renovations, industrial style decoration and other environments.

In summary, as a commonly used decoration material, Inorganic Cement Raised Floors have the advantages of low cost, wear resistance, and easy care. At the same time, they also have disadvantages such as difficult construction and high hardness, which need to be determined according to specific circumstances.
