Concrete Repair
Our engineering-grade mortars provide durable solutions for structural and cosmetic concrete restoration. Products like Monomix and Fastfill enable single-application repairs up to 80mm thick without primers. These systems restore structural integrity while resisting chemical attack and abrasion in demanding environments such as marine structures and wastewater facilities. Proven performance in landmark projects including Hinkley Point B Power Station demonstrates our capability to meet critical infrastructure needs.
Protective Coatings
Water-based anti-carbonation coatings like Monodex offer 10-15 years of maintenance-free protection against weathering and CO2 ingress. Hygienic coatings such as Biodex HB prevent microbial growth in food processing and healthcare environments. Our systems maintain substrate breathability while forming durable barriers, complying with stringent regulations including WRAS approvals for potable water contact in applications like the Black Hill Reservoir project.
Waterproofing
Cementitious coatings provide 10-bar water pressure resistance for deep-level construction and bunding applications. Systems like Cemprotec E-Floor deliver seamless waterproofing for green roofs and podium decks. Approved for drinking water contact under Regulation 31(4)(a), these solutions combine ultra-low VOC content with chemical resistance, ideal for confined spaces and environmentally sensitive projects such as London Underground upgrades.
Corrosion Protection
Migratory corrosion inhibitors and epoxy-modified coatings protect steel reinforcement in aggressive environments. Cemprotec E942 provides standalone protection for marine sheet piling while meeting environmental standards. Our systems extend asset lifespans in chloride-exposed structures by offering equivalent protection to 100mm concrete cover, as demonstrated in coastal projects like Clacton Pier refurbishment.
Flooring Systems
High-build coatings deliver abrasion-resistant waterproofing for concrete floors. Systems combine rapid-cure technology with chemical resistance, enabling early return to service in high-traffic areas. Roofdex HB roof coatings reflect 80% sunlight while withstanding extreme temperatures (-50C to +80C), making them suitable for inverted and green roof applications in both new build and refurbishment projects worldwide.
Questions
What concrete repair solutions do you offer?
We provide engineering-grade mortars like Monomix and Fastfill for structural repairs, offering single-application thicknesses up to 80mm without primers. Our systems resist chemical attack and abrasion in demanding environments.
Are your products suitable for water infrastructure?
Yes, our cementitious coatings are WRAS-approved for potable water contact and withstand 10-bar water pressure. They're used in reservoirs, treatment works, and tunnels like the Channel Tunnel.
Do you offer corrosion protection for steel structures?
Our migratory inhibitors and epoxy-modified coatings protect steel reinforcement. Cemprotec E942 meets environmental standards for marine applications, as used in Dungeness B Power Station upgrades.
Can your coatings be used in hygienic environments?
Biodex HB and Sheen coatings prevent microbial growth in food processing and healthcare facilities. They form non-toxic, non-tainting films compliant with strict hygiene legislation.
How do you support international projects?
We have distributors in 65 countries and technical specialists providing global support. Recent projects include the Spinnaker Tower refurbishment and parmesan cheese factory protection in Italy.
What sustainability measures do you implement?
Our water-based, ultra-low VOC formulations reduce environmental impact. Products like Monodex coatings combine durability with breathability, extending maintenance cycles to 10-15 years.
