Bomanite Featured Project
Books-A-Million
Design creates ambiance. The right design creates a mood.
This concrete floor, installed by Ahal Contracting Company
of Bridgeton, MO, creates a lively, fresh environment, producing
a friendly atmosphere where patrons can sit and chat or read
their selections without falling asleep.
Two colors of Bomanite Micro-Top were used on this 6,500
square foot floor in this Books-A-Million store in St. Louis.
A custom color, Books-A-Million Gray, was used in the aisles
and as a base in the Joe Muggs Café, then a dark,
rich color was checkerboarded in the café area to
provide contrast, depth and interest.
Bomanite Micro-Top was the perfect product for this interior
floor, having the capability to be placed over virtually
any stable substrate at the thickness of a credit card. Three
coats of sealer plus four coats of finisher were applied,
then the floor was buffed to achieve a high-gloss finish.
This method produced a gorgeous, durable surface that will
not only withstand an enormous amount of foot traffic, but
abuse from the scraping of the chairs in the café area
as well.
Ahal Contracting Company did not undertake this specialized
project alone. Another Bomanite Licensed Contractor , Jeffco Concrete
Contractors, located in Alabama, which had installed the
Micro-Top flooring in all the other Books-A-Million stores
came to lend expertise and guidance to the project. This
ensured consistency among the stores and satisfaction from
another Bomanite customer.
It is this cooperation among Licensed Contractors that sets Bomanite
apart in the architectural concrete industry. Bomanite has
a network of licensed contractors who meet regularly to undergo
training, share ideas and learn from one another. When you
want the best architectural concrete, ask for Bomanite.
