Colored Concrete

Integrally pigmented and colour-hardened concrete for external areas that have to look designed and still take vehicles, sun and sand.

About Colored Concrete

Colour is added either through the mix, as an integral pigment that runs the full depth of the pour, or as a dry-shake colour hardener broadcast onto fresh concrete, which puts the pigment and a hard-wearing aggregate into the top few millimetres at once.

Both routes are finished with a curing and sealing compound that locks in the shade and slows UV fade. Colours are matched from a sample panel cast on site, because the same mix reads differently under Qatar’s light than it does on a chart.
