Extreme Concrete Repair
Floor-Tech PR was used to repair extensive areas of the Heathrow Airport taxiway, one of the busiest airports in the world. The areas for repair were only available for 7 hours throughout the night and all repairs had to be cured to a compressive strength of 12,000 psi. The repairs proved a complete success with the regular flow of aircraft using the taxiway the following morning.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Poly-Tech, Uni-Tech MC Prime

Gutter Protection
The roof of this building has two 162 ft. long box gutters. The client required a long-term high performance protection system, which would waterproof and weatherproof the gutters.
The reinforced Poly-Tech system was recommended for this application based on the fact that it is totally unaffected by ponding water or permanent immersion conditions.
The surface of the box gutters was prepared ensuring the substrate was clean, dry and free from contamination. It was then primed with Uni-Tech MC Primer prior to the application of the Poly-Tech system. This comprised one coat of Poly-Tech into which Thortex Chopped Strand Matt was embedded, followed by a second coat of Poly-Tech.

High Build Floor Protection
A heavy duty floor protection system suitable for concrete floors operating in an aggressive industrial environment was required. The Floor-Tech HB system was chosen for this application over other coating systems based on its ceramic enhancement. The dense concrete floor, totalling 3,090 sq. feet, was prepared by captive-shot blasting and primed with Uni-Tech GP Primer. The primed substrate was then coated with our two component, solventfree, ceramic-enhanced, high build epoxy coating Floor-Tech HB which offers optimum levels of adhesion, abrasion, impact and chemical resistance.

Lining Of Storage Container
This container was used to store liquefied brown coal in a briquette factory. The container was in need of relining to extend its working life and ensure no seepage of its contents out of the container. The entire surface was first blast cleaned and then two coats of Chemi-Tech UC were applied. The container was protected over five years ago and has not required relining since.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Poly-Tech WG, Thortex Choppe

Roof Refurbishment
This section of roof had deteriorated over time and now required a cost-effective waterproofing system, which would protect the building beneath. The roof was cleaned, dirt and debris removed and any damaged areas repaired. Poly-Tech WG was first applied to the substrate fully embedding Thortex Chopped Strand Matt followed by a second coat of Poly-Tech WG.

Secondary Containment Area Protection
The concrete walls and floor of this 150 ft × 150 ft × 15 ft secondary containment unit, which houses a 60 ft high gasoline tank, had developed cracks. Following a site survey, it was established that there were 52 vertical and horizontal cracks and joints to seal which totalled over 4800 linear feet. The areas to be repaired were grit blasted using an angular abrasive and treated with Flexi-Tech Primer. Flexi-Tech 80 EG was then applied.
