Micro Concrete: A Revolutionary Material for Custom Home Building

Micro concrete is a truly remarkable material that has been gaining popularity in home décor and construction for over 25 years. This innovative blend, primarily composed of high-strength French cements and quartz silica sand from local quarries, is an exceptionally durable and timeless option for a variety of surfaces. Applied in just two thin coats, micro concrete creates a seamless finish that’s only 2mm thick, making it ideal for use on substrates like concrete, tiles or plasterboard. As the premium Mornington Peninsula builders, Riverwolf are proud to be the local experts for Micro Concrete.

Micro concrete is a popular choice for walk-in showers and bathroom spaces due to its waterproof properties.
