Application Method

Application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflet TCC-15. Belzona® 4131 and Belzona® 4141 were used to repair the degraded sections of the walls and to create fillets to all horizontal and vertical corners of the bund. The floor was screeded with Belzona® 4131 at 6mm to provide maximum impact resistance. A two coat system of Belzona® 5811 was then applied to all the internal surfaces of the bund.

Belzona Facts

The Belzona system provides excellent resistance to permeation. The reinforcement of wall and floor joints will ensure long term containment without cracking or breaks in the bund lining.
