Sustainable Polyurethane Coating Provides the Look of Marble on a Concrete Budget

The project team of Ave Maria University personnel, architect Cannon Design of Grand Island, New York, and construction manager Suffolk/Kraft of Naples wanted the 70,000 square feet of concrete floors in the newly-constructed Ave Maria near Naples, FL, to have a dramatic look and be extremely durable, yet affordable. Several companies bid on the job, but Solomon Colors, Inc. of Springfield, IL and Covestro were instrumental in providing an alternative, more sustainable solution to traditional flooring surfaces.
