Concrete can be coloured in two ways – Using Colour Surface Hardener or Integral Colourmix

Colour Surface Hardener

Colour Surface Hardener

Allcrete Colour For Concrete Hardener is applied by hand and trowelled into the surface of freshly poured concrete, colouring and hardening the surface of the concrete. Colour Surface Hardener is available in 25kgs bags in a range of 24 different colours.

Please see the PICS Colour Surface Hardener Colourchart below

Integral Colourmix

Integral Colourmix

Alternatively the concrete may be coloured using an Integral Colourmix which is added to the concrete while it is in the lorry and mixed thoroughly. This is then laid as normal concrete in Ireland. This product colours the concrete slab throughout but does not harden the surface. Our Integral Colourmix is available in water soluble bags – 1 per cubic metre. Integral Colours are manufactured to suit the cement content of the concrete mix being used. These are available in 24 different colours.

Please see the Hatcrete Integral Colourmix Colourchart below

Release Agent

Release Agent

An Antique Powder Release Agent can be used on either method to give a second colour to the slab while preventing the imprinting mats from sticking to the concrete. This product is available in at least 13 different colours.

Please see the PICS Antique Release Agent Colourchart below

Concrete Stains

Stains, either water-based or acid-based can also be used to highlight certain features, borders etc.
