Belzona Facts
Belzona chosen to repair critical areas as alternative to re-plating which was very much more costly and would have taken four times as long. Structure planned to be replaced after six months. In fact, replacement would have delayed for 12 months at which time Belzona® 1391 was still in perfect condition. Belzona® 1391 used on new absorber tower.
