Here are some examples:

The DS 301 Planetary Polisher

If you make concrete countertops, pour concrete floors or steps, the DS 301 Planetary Polisher is for you. This hand-held polishing tool is unique in the industry, accomplishing flat, smooth concrete surfaces quickly. It is a true planetary polisher. With three small heads mounted on a large wheel, it moves like the earth around the sun— the small heads spinning in one direction and the large head traveling in the opposite. What makes this polisher unique is that the heads are powered from the side rather than from the center—an improvement in polishers that is the genius of its creator, Dennis Stoscher, co-owner of Intertool and its “sister” company, Leitch & Co.

Epoxy Terrazzo Toppings Blend Beauty with Function

Invented by the Venetians in the 1500s, cement-based terrazzo is one of the oldest types of decorative flooring systems. This mosaic-like floor topping—made by embedding small pieces of marble or granite in mortar, followed by polishing—is still highly prized for its timeless beauty. But a newer type of terrazzo has entered the scene, offering a host of benefits that threaten to shrink the market for traditional cement-based systems.

FloorPix™- Changing the Flooring Picture

In very early times, people placed art on floors. Greco-Roman mosaics and frescoes on floors are classic examples. Now, in the 21st century, there is something entirely new —a patent-pending digital imagery revolution —FloorPix.

Saw Cut Master

Saw-Cut Master

Before the cracks are there, you make the cut. You bevel edges, round corners, and achieve the perfect–well, close to perfect– “Tooled Joint” look! You create grids, curved designs, edgings, graphics, and wonder where there are additional places to use that saw! Soff-Cut International, Inc., based in Corona, CA, makes this all possible with the introduction of their Ultra Early Entry Concrete Cutting Saws and Diamond Blades that cut control joints—with the option to add chamfer joints, radiuses or V-shaped patterned joints.
