These machines are used for cutting both horizontal and vertical surfaces of block, brick, reinforced concrete and pre-cast.
Some applications include wall removal, door openings, window openings and cutting where a road saw is not accessible.
Flush cutting to the roof, floor and walls can be realised using our hydraulic flush cut machine.
We have machines that are electric, petrol and hydraulic powered to ensure we have a solution for cutting in any environment including confined spaces.

|
Road or Flat sawing is ideal for cutting horizontal flat surfaces such as concrete floors, bridge decks, pavements, and asphalt roads.
Our electric saws are powerful, flexible and manoeuvrable with a very wide range of applications. They are great for use in shopping centres, hospitals or anywhere fume free cutting is the preferred method.
|
|
 
|
Soff-cut or Early-entry sawing can begin as soon as 1 to 2 hours after concrete placement. Early-entry saws are much lighter than conventional sawing equipment, which allows them to be used on concrete at a much earlier stage, often as soon as workers can walk on the concrete.
|
- Track / Wall Sawing to a depth of 730mm from one side
|
|
This saw is remotely operated making it perfect for confined spaces and demolition work. Its powerful motor makes it perfect for deep cutting of heavily reinforced concrete walls. All cutting is fume free and being a modular system it can be used in hard access areas that other saws such as a road saw can not be used. |
|
 |
Diamond wire saws are more efficient than circular saws, able to cut concrete of almost any thickness. This makes them very useful for the kind of heavy demolition found in bridges, damns and thick concrete structures. In addition, they create little dust, noise and vibration, making them ideal for demolition work within inhabited structures. |

Super Concrete Polished Floor System
Super Polished Concrete is a system created by Klindex that changes a standard concrete
floor into a beautiful, polished and easy to maintain surface, thanks
to its patented grinding machinery and diamond tools.
The surface of the future
Klindex Super Polished Concrete is a fast and easy system for grinding and
polishing concrete surfaces, without the use of coatings. Thanks to our
technical and research development department it is now possible to
change a standard concrete floor into a hygienic, traffic and wear
resistant, beautiful surface that is easy to maintain. This system has
been implemented by factories and firms all over the world for
commercial, industrial and domestic buildings. Due to the high
performance of Super Concrete, this system of polishing and grinding is
becoming more desirable in comparison to the use of coatings such as
wax, resins or paints.
Characteristics of the super concrete system:
- Achieve a surface finish similar to terrazzo or marble
- Increased abrasion and impact resistance
- Up to 8 times more resistant to wear via foot-traffic
- Eliminates marking and damage to the surface via heavy machinery such as forklifts
- Completely flat and smooth surface finish
- Hygienic with no VOC emissions
- Recreate a traditional looking floor with a modern process
Klindex promotes the use of Super Polished Concrete in a variety of
applications that require a heavy traffic resistant, clean and
aesthetically pleasing floor. This may include warehouses, shops,
supermarket, restaurants, garages, houses, showrooms, liquor stores and
more.
The Longest-Lasting Floor Solution Available
The Klindex Super Polished Concrete flooring system is perfectly suited to
existing concrete floors that have been covered with traditional
flooring systems such as carpet or timber, allowing the life and
strength of the floor to be increased dramatically.
The Super Polished Concrete system process removes the top part of the surface
of the old concrete floor (including any patchy, partial, or whole
coatings), and hardens the exposed surface beneath, creating a
transformation of porous concrete into a dense surface that is highly
resistant to wear, scratching and chemicals.
Perfect for truck traffic:
- Elimination of tyre marks from forklifts, vehicles
and industrial hoppers. Generally, when a forklift wheel spins on a
coated surface, a tyre mark is created and usually there to stay until
the floor is repaired.
- Decrease in overall fork truck tyre wear and tear
(due to the smoothness of the floor and leveling of the uneven surface).
In heavy industrial facilities, rough and uneven surfaces cause tyres
to wear out rather quickly.
Ecologic/environmentally friendly
Polished concrete is a LEEDs friendly product that utilizes an
existing concrete surface, eliminating the need for additional coverings
and coating materials to be manufactured and purchased. Tile, carpet,
and linoleum usually end up in landfills when they require replacement.
Polished concrete is highly durable, and should a re-polish ever become
necessary, it is completed on the existing slab at only a fraction of
the cost without any significant waste.
- No odor or migration of emissions from chemicals.
- No solvent that evaporates into air.
- No products that can cause allergies.
- Clean air without any dust emitted from Super Concrete Floor.
Due to the surface remaining natural and uncoated, Super Concrete
allows water vapour to evaporate through the surface as there are no
barriers that harbor bacteria, mould or fungi. These coatings can also
flake, peel, crack or separate at different stages in their lifetime.
Economic:
Easy to maintain, merely requires a sweep and scrub with a floor cleaning machine.
This decrease in floor maintenance means a reduction on cleaning
equipment; making brushes, pads and mops require replacement less often.
Most floor systems require aggressive scrubbing in order to maintain a
clean environment and an attractive appearance.
There is also no need to wax or strip the floor and hence all of your
allocated maintenance labour and material costs for stripping and
waxing can now be eliminated.
Cost effective:
Polished Concrete is one of the most economical and cost effective
flooring alternatives available. The reduced costs over the life of the
floor are associated with saved energy, reduced material costs,
maintenance reduction, and especially the long-lasting durability shows
that polished concrete is a budget sensible, as well as beautiful,
flooring system.
The Process
Existing Concrete Floors
- Old coatings must be removed to bare concrete. And floors must be clean.
- Damages should be repaired.
- Initial Grinding with Metalbond Diamond.
- Impregnation with Concrete Hardening agent.
- Polishing with Resinbond diamond discs.
- Sealing with Impregnating Sealer.
New Concrete Floors
- By the addition of coloured aggregates, it is possible to achieve a very elegant appearance in different variations.
- Also crushed coloured glass can be seeded into the
top layer of fresh concrete where the grinding and polishing processes
will reveal the glass pieces.
- Select colours and aggregates of concrete.
- Place concrete and allow curing for at least one week before any grinding.
- Grinding with Metalbond Diamond.
- Impregnation with Concrete Hardening agent.
- Polishing with Resinbond diamond discs.
- Sealing with Impregnating Sealer.
Comparison with Coatings
Polish or wax coatings are the traditional methods to achieve a high
gloss surface finish to your floor. However, the higher the shine the
more susceptible the finish is to scuffing and wear, giving the coating a
relatively short period of time. Any further coatings are more
vulnerable to scratching and general wear, leaving only the option of
stripping the floor before application of new coats. This is a process
which must be repeated over and over in the service life of a floor.
The same can be said for paint coatings based on acrylics, epoxies
and urethanes, as these must be frequently repainted due to wear (in
high traffic areas every 2-5 years). Initial application rates can make
these options appear economical, yet in the long-term it is more
expensive form of flooring than a full Super Polished Concrete Floor.
