Belzona Facts
Belzona Polymers allow for a perfect repair, completed in only one day, keeping the power station on schedule. Welding was considered as an alternative method of repair but this would not prevent the same damage from occuring in the future. The customer, therefore, chose the most cost effective repair method.
