Lux Coloured Concrete Range

---

 Colored concrete is simply concrete that has been tinted or stained to achieve a specific color or pattern. Instead of the traditional gray color of regular concrete, colored concrete can be customized to match or complement the surrounding environment, architectural design, or aesthetic preferences.

There are several methods for coloring concrete:

1. Integral Coloring: This involves adding pigments directly into the concrete mix before pouring. Integral colors are available in powder or liquid form and are mixed thoroughly with the concrete to achieve uniform color throughout the slab.
2. Surface Coloring: Surface coloring involves applying color to the surface of the concrete after it has been poured and cured. This can be achieved through various techniques such as staining, painting, or using colored toppings or overlays.
3. Concrete Dyes: Concrete dyes are concentrated solutions that penetrate into the concrete surface to impart color. They are available in a wide range of colors and can be used alone or in combination with other coloring methods.
4. Acid Staining: Acid staining is a chemical reaction between metallic salts and the lime content in concrete. This process creates unique, mottled color variations and translucent effects that mimic natural stone or marble.

Colored concrete is popular in both residential and commercial construction for its versatility and aesthetic appeal. It can be used for a variety of applications including driveways, patios, sidewalks, floors, and decorative elements such as countertops and sculptures. Additionally, colored concrete is durable, long-lasting, and requires minimal maintenance, making it an attractive option for many projects.
