What Is Microcement?

Microcement is a thin cement-based coating composed of cement, polymers, and mineral pigments. It’s typically applied in 2–3 mm layers over surfaces like concrete, tiles, plasterboard, or even wood.

Despite its thin profile, microcement is durable, waterproof, and low-maintenance, making it ideal for both residential and commercial renovations. With finishes ranging from matte to polished, it’s perfect for creating modern, minimalist, or industrial-style interiors.
