Concrete is one of the most durable and commonly used building materials in the world. So why settle for latex coatings that peel off after a few years and leave your projects unsightly and tarnished? Nawkaw’s color solutions go beyond color. Our innovative products and proprietary techniques have transformed buildings for over thirty years. Our architectural finishes, unique textures, and mineral stains don’t peel off or fade. Through our color equalization techniques, Nawkaw can rectify imperfections in freshly poured concrete and allow designers to embrace the natural concrete look. Or, utilize formliners and custom-crafted stain to transform your concrete into a host of different designs and finishes. From downtown high-rises to bridges and infrastructure projects, massive distribution centers and everywhere in between, Nawkaw crafts captivating buildings through color and finishing work, at scale, and by hand. MATERIAL REPLICATION Nawkaw’s bespoke stain solution paired with innovative concrete formliners creates a one-of-a-kind façade. Take total control of your building’s texture, color, and visual impact by designing your concrete exactly as you desire, creating unique looks such as stonework, masonry, metal paneling, lumber, worn leather, and so much more!
WOOD GRAIN IN CONCRETE?
Concrete is first formed into a wooden finish using high-quality formliners. Next, Nawkaw’s certified Stain Technicians use varying shades of custom stain to transform gray concrete into a look that can fool from any distance.

Inconsistencies in cure times, temperature fluctuations, and many other factors can leave freshly cured concrete incongruent and unfinished in appearance. Nawkaw certified Stain Technicians are highly-trained in their craft, utilizing stain in various hues and transparencies to blend away discoloration without disrupting the natural appearance of concrete. Perfect for infrastructure projects, repair work, or simply for architectural aesthetics, color equalization gives you the smooth, even final appearance you’ve been searching for! COLOR EQUALIZATION Embrace the natural beauty of concrete while blending away unsightly blemishes, discoloration, and patchwork. Nawkaw Color Equalization leaves your concrete looking just as you desire.
