Concrete floors are frequently used in horticulture and greenhouse horticulture because of the benefits that they offer. However, with (large) concrete floors, joints are a ‘necessary evil’ and without high-quality seals, they could eliminate many of these benefits. Good joint seals are therefore essential in order to ensure the benefits and quality of a concrete floor.
Concrete floors are relatively easy to level, are watertight and low maintenance. Because of these properties, they are frequently used in horticulture and greenhouse horticulture. However, concrete is subject to expansion and shrinkage (‘working’), for instance due to temperature influences. In order to give the floor room for working and to prevent the concrete from tearing, joints are created. Joints are therefore necessary for the maintenance of the concrete floor, but entail a number of problems. After joints have been created, the concrete floor is no longer watertight, so that water management becomes impossible in the greenhouse. In addition, fertilizers and crop protection agents are used in horticulture and greenhouse horticulture. The biochemical and chemical substances leak into the soil if the joints are not properly sealed.
