Transitions win polished concrete award

Transitions Polishing and Grinding, a specialist concrete flooring contractor based in Queensland, has been awarded the International Polished Concrete Award in the Retail Category for its work at Capri on Via Roma Shopping Centre on the Gold Coast.

The Capri on Via Roma project encompassed over 24,000m2 of Transitions concrete flooring products, which have been installed from the basement car park to the external walkways and car parks, the internal mall areas and food court as well as a number of retail tenancies.

Speaking of the award, Brett Brant, Director of Transitions said "We are very proud to be presented with the Polished Concrete Award for the Capri on Via Roma project. It is a true testament to the design of the project, the hard work of our team and the high quality products they deliver for Transitions on a daily basis.”

The shopping centre, designed by BDA Architecture and built by Hutchinson Builders, is a $50million refurbishment and extension of a 1960s waterfront building on the Isle of Capri. Transitions completed the following flooring products for the Capri on Via Roma project:
