Davis Colors Add Life to Concrete
Davis Colors are concentrated color admixtures that mix right in to
transform ordinary concrete into structures that stand out or pavement
that blends in. Davis Colors offers a range of hues that set a new standard
for colored concrete. There are bold and intense premium tones, standard
colors that add less than a dollar per square foot, and subtle shades for
any budget. Now the hardest thing about colored concrete is deciding what
color you want.
Concrete is so common that it is assumed to be available in only one
color- gray. Integral concrete color by Davis Colors provides architects
with an added design tool. Earth tones reduce glare. Red and green hues
create bold statements. Colored concrete can be trowel- or form-finished,
or special finishes such as pattern stamping or exposed aggregate can be
used for more dramatic effects. In addition to cast-in-place and precast
concrete, Davis Colors are used in concrete masonry, stucco, plaster, mortar,
terrazzo, cast stone, roof tiles, and concrete pavers. Colored concrete
unifies buildings, walkways, and landscaping elements. Davis Colors are
strong, durable, and last as long as the concrete with little maintenance.

Installation
Contractors install colored concrete the same way as high-quality, uncolored
concrete. Installation is easier than dust-on colors, stains, or coatings
and takes little or no additional labor. Concrete suppliers use Mix-Ready®
disintegrating bags or the Chameleon bulk handling system to add color.
Mix-Ready® bags disintegrate in the mix, releasing pigments and leaving
no bags to throw away. The Chameleon is a computerized dosing system that
improves color accuracy, availability and handling efficiency.
