Our team is always looking for new innovations that will provide the best solutions for our home and business owners around the Houston area, and that extends well beyond the garage. We’re proud and excited at the opportunity to elevate the driveways around town with GENIX Potassium Silicate. GENIX is an eco-friendly solution for protecting concrete driveways and surfaces. With its advanced potassium silicate formula, GENIX offers superior durability and long-lasting performance while meeting high environmental standards.
From repelling moisture in humid conditions to resisting stains from oil and vegetation, GENIX provides Houstonians with a sustainable, low-maintenance option for preserving their driveways. It’s changing the game when it comes to methods of sealing concrete.
Let’s get into what it is, how it works, and why it’s a great choice here in Texas.
GENIX Potassium Silicate Defined
GENIX is a state-of-the-art, hydrophobic, inorganic densifying sealant designed for direct-to-concrete application. Its advanced potassium silicate formula chemically bonds with concrete to form a breathable, non-film-forming layer. This innovative technology repels water, resists stains, and significantly extends the lifespan of concrete surfaces. Unlike traditional sealers, GENIX enhances durability from within, making it ideal for high-moisture environments, temperature fluctuations, and heavy-use areas.
Why GENIX is Getting So Popular
Deep Penetration and Superior Hardening
GENIX penetrates deeply into the substrate, fortifying concrete from the inside out. By avoiding surface films that can trap moisture, GENIX eliminates the risks of peeling, flaking, and other moisture-related issues, enhancing resistance to wear, abrasion, and impact.
Breathable and Eco-Friendly
GENIX allows moisture vapor to escape while repelling liquid water and chloride ions, preventing internal cracking and scaling. Meeting stringent EPA and OSHA standards, it is an eco-conscious solution suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.
Enhanced Surface Finish
Perfect for machine-troweled, broom-finished, or textured concrete, GENIX creates a dense, easy-to-clean surface while preserving the natural appearance of the concrete without adding gloss or shine.
Water, Salt, Mold and Mildew Repellent
Offering long-lasting protection against water, efflorescence, mold, mildew, salts, and deicing chemicals, GENIX also minimizes stains from tires, vegetation, and other contaminants, ensuring cleaner, more durable surfaces.
Long-Lasting Performance
Unlike traditional film-forming sealers, which require frequent reapplication, GENIX forms a chemical bond within the concrete itself. This internal durability translates to longer-lasting protection with significantly reduced maintenance needs.
Potential Applications
GENIX is ideal for use on architectural concrete, concrete blocks, pavers, stucco, brick, clay tiles, natural stone and exposed aggregate surfaces. From driveways, patios and basements to workshops, warehouses, and retail spaces, GENIX provides the ultimate protection across a wide range of applications.
The GENIX Formula: How it Works
GENIX’s advanced formula reacts with the minerals in concrete to form calcium silicate hydrate (CSH), which fills pores, densifies surfaces, and enhances hardness. This process improves resistance to wear, impact, and abrasion while creating a hydrophobic barrier to protect against water, salts, salt alternatives, and freeze-thaw damage.
American Quality
Proudly manufactured in the USA by Eco-CorFlex Industrial Polymers, GENIX Potassium Silicate embodies American ingenuity and a commitment to quality.
Important Note: GENIX must be applied to untreated concrete, masonry and natural stone surfaces. It is not suitable for use over previously treated or coated substrates.
Choosing GENIX For Your Driveway
If you’re choosing GENIX for your driveway, you’re not just protecting your driveway—you’re investing in a sustainable solution that withstands Houston’s humidity while reducing maintenance and environmental impact. Reach out to our Houston teams to learn more.
About Garage Floor Coatings Houston
What is so innovative about our garage floor coatings? Garage Floor Coatings of Houston is an independent, privately owned dealership. We use high-quality Eco-Corflex brand concrete coatings and installation techniques developed by GarageFloorCoating.com. In 1996, GarageFloorCoating.com revolutionized the garage floor coating industry by developing quality, industrial-grade concrete coatings and perfecting an innovative coating process. The products and installation techniques set the industry standard. We continue to update our cutting edge coating products and installation techniques and remain the benchmark against which all other garage floor coating companies are measured.
We are not a low quality “1-day polyurea” or “1-day polyaspartic” coating company. We use our moisture-mitigating, concrete-penetrating epoxy as the primer coat and save the polyurea-polyaspartics as the top coat…as all professional installers do.
