Application Situation
A floor area in a chemical storage room had become worn over time due to both mechanical and chemical attack.
Application Method
All loose and friable materials were removed from the target area, using a wire brush, soft brush and compressed air. The area was conditioned using Belzona 4911 (TX-Conditioner). Following the conditioning, Belzona 4131 was applied, and were finished level with the rest of the floor.
Belzona Facts
This is quite an old site which has many areas of repairs to carry out. The costs of employing specialist concrete repair contractors isn't an option with the amount they have to do. Belzona's free, on-site training, delivered by the local sales engineer was welcomed by the busy maintenance team, making it possible for them to now carry out professional and durable repairs to all their problem areas, potentially saving up to £20,000 a year in contractors fees.
