When property owners, facility managers, and architects across the Greater Toronto Area seek a flooring solution that bridges the gap between industrial-grade structural resilience and high-end architectural design, decorative quartz flooring is the ultimate choice.
At AK Level & Polish Inc., we engineer advanced commercial flooring and industrial flooring quartz systems tailored to the diverse spatial and operational demands of Toronto properties.
Here is an overview of our comprehensive quartz system solutions designed for both residential and commercial applications.
1. Tailored Applications Across Sectors
Different environments place unique mechanical, chemical, and aesthetic demands on a subfloor. Our quartz systems are engineered to perform across a wide range of spaces:
- Commercial & Retail Environments: From bustling retail showrooms and corporate lobbies to automotive service bays and educational facilities, our quartz systems deliver exceptional compressive strength ($12,500\text{ to }17,500\text{ psi}$ per ASTM D-695 / C-579) to withstand heavy foot traffic, rolling carts, and equipment loads. Custom color blends, logo inlays, and visual zoning elevate brand identity.
- Commercial Kitchens & Healthcare Facilities: In spaces where hygiene and chemical resistance are paramount, our monolithic, non-porous quartz systems eliminate grout lines and bacterial traps. Paired with coved wall bases and chemical-resistant topcoats, they withstand frequent washdowns, organic acids, and strict sanitation protocols.
- Upscale Residential Spaces: For luxury residential basements, modern garages, and architectural living areas, fine-grade quartz blends mimic the sophisticated look of poured Italian terrazzo or clean monochromatic minimalism—delivering a warm, seamless, and waterproof finish.
2. The Engineering Advantage: Material Science & Standards
A professional quartz floor is an engineered composite built on rigorous material science and certified performance standards:
- Ceramic-Coated Aggregates: Kiln-dried quartz crystals coated with stable ceramic pigments provide superior UV stability, uniform color consistency, and a Mohs hardness rating of 7.
- 100% Solids Resins: Free of shrinking solvents, our high-solids epoxy, polyaspartic, and polyurethane matrices cross-link into an impermeable barrier with a water absorption rate of $<0.04\%$ (ASTM D-570).
- Life-Safety Compliance: Systems achieve a high static coefficient of friction (0.8 to 0.9 under ASTM D-2047) for superior slip resistance and carry a Class A fire rating (ASTM E-84 / NFPA 101).
3. Rigorous Installation Methodology
Flawless, long-lasting performance begins with meticulous preparation and expert execution:
- Concrete Surface Preparation: Heavy-duty mechanical diamond grinding or shot-blasting establishes an International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI) profile of CSP 3 to CSP 5 for permanent mechanical keying.
- Moisture Mitigation: In-situ relative humidity testing (per ASTM F-2170) evaluates subfloor vapor drive, with specialized moisture-mitigating primers applied when necessary to prevent blistering.
- Full-Broadcast & Topcoating: Ceramic quartz aggregates are broadcast to 100% rejection into wet base resins for maximum structural density, then sealed with UV-stable polyaspartic or urethane topcoats.
