Application Situation
After the breakdown, they had to go into full operation as soon as possible. “If we hadn't had Belzona 1818 with its fast-curing properties, the cost to the customer would have been very high. The alternative would have been to start up with uncoated surfaces which would have meant more unnecessary wear and tear and more expensive maintenance costs.
