With the increasing number of fine dining restaurants and vibrant cafes around Australia, Melbourne continues to hold its own as a culinary capital.
The trend to concrete floors in cafés is a logical one, with the number of options for front of house offering a contemporary, seamless, easy to clean, luxe finish.
In the kitchens and behind the bar, you need to choose a finish that meets the rigours of the tough conditions found in the hospitality industry, and more importantly, Australia’s strict standards of safety and hygiene.
