Belzona Facts
Belzona Systems allowed the tower to be repaired and protected quickly and effectively ensuring many years of continued service. The stainless steel cone in the base of the tower was not coated, but the Belzona provides an excellent seal at the steel/concrete interface. Belzona Systems were also used on the external surfaces to provide additional protection from the marine atmosphere.
