Belzonaの事実
The initial application was quick and eliminated any potential safety risk due to unsafe concrete falling from the two storey building. Twenty seven years later, Belzona revisited the application to find that it was still in excellent condition with no signs of further spalling, carbonation, shrinkage or cracking. Now 40 years later Belzona has revisited the site again, and there are still no signs of further damage.
