The project


SevenStore is a high-traffic clothing retailer where the floor doesn’t just need to look good on day one — it needs to perform year after year. In this case, the floor has been down for six years with no maintenance, only good daily upkeep — and it still looks as good as it does today.

The brief

The goal was to create a stylish, neutral, industrial-style floor that would:

  • Complement the retail space without overpowering it
  • Handle constant footfall
  • Offer long-term durability with minimal maintenance

The solution

Greystone Coatings supplied and installed Politura, a cement-based microcement system, to create a seamless, industrial finish that acts as a clean, modern base for the store.

Politura was selected for its:

  • Proven longevity in commercial environments
  • Ease of application
  • Consistent, high-quality finish

The result is a floor that’s visually strong, hard-wearing, and practical for a busy retail environment.

The result

Six years on, the SevenStore floor:

  • Has required no maintenance – just daily cleaning.
  • Continues to perform under daily commercial use
  • Retains its original industrial aesthetic

It’s a real-world example of how the right microcement system delivers long-term value, not just a good first impression.

Why Politura?

Chris Berry of Greystone Coatings, who has over 20 years’ experience applying microcement, recommends Politura for both commercial and domestic projects.

Politura is my go-to system. It’s easy to apply, backed by excellent customer and technical support from Achtis, and its longevity is proven — especially in demanding commercial spaces.
