Exciting progress on the Thames Estuary Asset Management trial! Watch Balfour Beatty plc and Haydale teams apply CeramycGuard at Canvey Island, testing its ability to renew and protect concrete flood defences. This innovative coating increases durability by reducing porosity and guarding against chemical, microbial, and salt damage. #ConcreteProtection #Infrastructure #Innovation
Further to our announcement of Thames Estuary Asset Management – Team 2100’s trial of our concrete protective product, CeramycGuard, watch the video below to see the Balfour Beatty / Haydale’s staff at work, coating surfaces at its site on Canvey Island. The trial aims to investigate and prove CeramycGuard’s real world performance renewing and preserving, thus increasing the life, of concrete wall structures on their flood defences; which are under constant threat in a harsh environment. Concrete is the most widely used material in the world and, while resistant to fire and water, it is porous and open to corrosion. When treated with a CeramycGuard coating, it will have increased density, eliminated porosity and dramatically improved protection from chemical, microbial and salt attack – extending its life. It is a surface coating that penetrates the surface, providing chemical and microbiological protection, which has been designed so that it fills the pores and microcracks, coats the surface, and binds all the concrete elements together under a single protective ceramic layer. CeramycGuard is exclusively distributed by Haydale in the UK. Keith Broadbent Thomas Greaves John-Mark Seymour AZoNetwork Balfour Beatty plc #innovation #graphene #concrete
