Scarifying

What is Scarifying?

Scarifying/ Planning are used to effectively remove laitance, projections, encrustation, scale deposits, colour, rust, and provides great adhesive surface for applying epoxy and cement floor screeds.

Scarifying/ Planning are two different kinds of industrial floor preparation. Each has its own distinctive role, purpose and effect upon a floor.  Both separate machines have a typically aggressive nature and therefore are not really suitable for coating preparation. It is also good for removing waterproof membranes from locations such as car parks and other hard standing areas. Scabbing is a destructive process and is ideal for preparing large areas prior to the application of screeds.

Scarifying or Planning is usually employed in conjunction with industrial vacuum machines to reduce or eliminate dust emission.

However where these machines come into their own is for fast removal of concrete to reduce floor levels. TCT cutters cut grooves in the substrate to provide a very heavy non slip surface.
