LithiShield™
Lithium-Based Penetrating Surface Hardener
A lithium-based penetrating hardener that reacts inside concrete to form a dense calcium silicate gel—improving hardness, wear resistance, and long-term durability without changing the concrete’s appearance.
A lithium-based penetrating hardener that reacts inside concrete to form a dense calcium silicate gel—improving hardness, wear resistance, and long-term durability without changing the concrete’s appearance.
Product Overview
LithiShield™ is a lithium-based penetrating liquid surface hardener designed to penetrate into the internal pores of concrete and react with free calcium ions to form insoluble calcium silicate gel. This reaction blocks capillary pores, making the concrete harder and denser, and significantly improving surface strength and wear resistance.
Quick at a Glance(Model S12)
Penetrating lithium hardener / densifier
Colourless, transparent finish
Designed not to change the look of concrete
Very low VOC
Not detected (VOC < 2 g/L)
Non-flammable and non-toxic handling characteristics
(odorless / pollution-free)
Helps reduce dusting/sanding
Improves wear resistance
Key Benefits
Densifies and hardens from within by penetrating capillaries and pore channels.
Clear finish that keeps the original appearance (including colour).
Helps address concrete dusting/sanding by sealing pore channels and strengthening the surface.
Low odour, non-flammable, very low VOC characteristics.
Long-lasting performance designed to resist wear and ageing (will not peel off).

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it change the look of my concrete?
It is designed to be colourless and transparent and not affect the original appearance (including colour).
Can it help with dusty, sanding concrete?
Yes – designed to penetrate and block pore channels, helping address dusting/sanding at the root and improving wear resistance.
Do I need to dilute it?
No – use immediately with no dilution.
Is it suitable for terrazzo and old floors?
Yes – suitable for terrazzo and for old and new concrete floors (including sanded floors), with correct preparation.
