Site statistics on ConcreteNetwork.com show consumers are researching stained concrete flooring options for its green benefits, and design possibilities. YUCAIPA, Calif., Dec. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- ConcreteNetwork.com recorded over 3 million unique page views for stained concrete flooring information since January 2007. These statistics include a growing number of consumers researching the green benefits and design possibilities of concrete floors. Highlighted as a trendy, yet eco-friendly flooring solution, stained concrete continues to generate the most interest among other flooring applications. One factor contributing to the success of concrete floor surfaces is the material's green benefits. Stained concrete interior floors, when left exposed, can function both as the foundation slab and finished floor. Their high heating/cooling retention allows floors to absorb, store and release this energy when conditions are ideal, resulting in lowered heating and cooling costs. "Green building with concrete promotes a healthier, more comfortable living environment," explains Jim Peterson, president of ConcreteNetwork.com. "Concrete floors offer greater durability with less maintenance, and they're a beautiful alternative."
