Sikagard Anti-Carbonation Coatings
In some situations, such as where there is a risk of further alkali aggregate reaction, the concrete structure has to be protected against water penetration.
This can be achieved by the use of different types of products including hydrophobic impregnations, surface coatings and electrochemical treatments.
For many years, Sika has been one of the pioneers in concrete protection through the use of deeply penetrating silane and siloxane hydrophobic impregnations, plus durable acrylic and other resin based protective coatings.
Several of these are also tested and approved for use in conjunction with the latest electrochemical treatment techniques.
All of these Sika systems for the Method “Moisture Control” are fully in accordance with the requirements of EN 1504.
