Where is Forcrete based?

Forcrete Ltd is based at Oaktree Business Park in Wymondham, England, and is registered in England and Wales. It is the sister company of Fortis Coatings Ltd, a seamless surface installation company.

Can I get CAD or BIM files for Forcrete?

Forcrete is a seamless applied finish rather than a fixed product, and its website does not list CAD or BIM objects. Its Resources page provides technical and safety data sheets, a substrate guide, colour charts, help guides and estimate calculators, which Faura can collect for the project team.

Is Forcrete microcement waterproof?

Yes. Forcrete's key principle is that every layer of its system is waterproof before sealers are applied, so the finish does not rely on a thin sealer alone. Micro-Quartz is described as fully waterproof and is commonly specified for bathrooms and wet rooms.

Can Forcrete be used on floors?

Yes. Micro-Quartz Coarse suits high-traffic floors, Medium suits medium-traffic floors and Smooth suits low-traffic floors, while Trowel-X is a polished-concrete-style finish for high-traffic floors.

What is the difference between Matt and Diamond Polished?

Matt has high stain resistance but is more susceptible to scratching under point loads, and is often chosen for bathrooms. Diamond Polished is extremely resistant to abrasion and scratching, but can stain more easily if chemicals or strong colours are left on it. A polished surface is renewed by re-buffing; a matt one by sanding and re-coating the sealer.

What colour is the Forcrete floor at Faura?

Feather 2. Feather is one of Forcrete's standard colour families, in three tones, alongside Honey, Fossil, Smoke, Glacier and Wolf. Bespoke colours can also be commissioned.

Who installs Forcrete?

Only approved, trained installers can buy and apply Forcrete. Forcrete lists them on its installer map, and Faura can help connect the project team with one.

How much does Forcrete microcement cost, and what are the lead times?

Both depend on the system, the area, the substrate and the installation. Faura prepares trade quotations for each project and confirms timing for each order.

Waterproof in every layer

Forcrete was founded to supply a microcement that is waterproof before sealers are applied. In its own words, many microcements are made waterproof only by a thin polyurethane sealer, and once that sealer is damaged the material can soak up water. Forcrete's systems remove the reliance on thin, solvent-based lacquers, which matters most in bathrooms and wet rooms.

About Forcrete

Micro-Quartz: grains, sheens and colours

Micro-Quartz is a fully waterproof coating for horizontal and vertical surfaces, commonly specified for bathrooms, wet rooms, walls, floors and worktops in homes and commercial spaces.

Coarse: a large-grain, natural stone finish for high-traffic walls, floors and bathrooms; it can be sanded smooth or left lightly textured to aid slip resistance.
Medium: an understated finish with subtle tones, for walls, bathrooms and medium-traffic floors.
Smooth: a plaster-effect finish with no visible grain, for walls, bathrooms and low-traffic floors.
Sheen: every style can be finished Matt, with high stain resistance, or Diamond Polished, with high resistance to abrasion and scratching.
Colours: standard colours include Feather, Honey, Fossil, Smoke, Glacier and Wolf, each in three tones, alongside shades such as Arctic, Pearl, Pebble, Concrete and Anthracite. Bespoke colours can be commissioned.

Forcrete samples are handmade, so colour, tone and surface may vary; Forcrete recommends commissioning a large-format sample from the installer once a project is confirmed.
