Protective Coatings

Anti-Carbonation Coating

Concrete anti-carbonation protective coating

Helps limit carbon dioxide ingress into exposed concrete as part of a protective system. Coastal exposure and existing damage require separate assessment.

THE MATERIAL

What it does

Anti-carbonation coatings are specified to slow carbon dioxide ingress through suitable concrete surfaces. The selected system should balance carbon dioxide resistance, moisture behaviour and any required crack accommodation.

Technical considerations

Repair unsound concrete and assess reinforcement corrosion before coating. For coastal structures, chloride contamination and salt exposure must be evaluated separately; an anti-carbonation coating does not remove existing chlorides or reverse corrosion. Confirm the actual system data and surface preparation requirements.

Product selection depends on the surface and site conditions. Ask our team for specifications and availability.
