Solutions for

CIVIL INFRASTRUCTURE
Extend concrete service life.

We can help.

Involved in the assets management  of civil concrete structures?
Bridges, highways, culverts and other concrete infrastructure all face particular challenges

Firstly, there is contamination from the environment they are situated in. This includes water-borne reactants, in the case of waterways; or carbonation from exhaust fumes.
You may also be faced with low cover issues on new precast elements.
Then there’s the matter of cost and budget.

Take a proactive approach to risk reduction.
Achieve the service life the structure was designed to have.

Why choose MARKHAM?
Markham helps reduce your project risk by engaging early in the design process and supporting through to production. We provide supply and application of spray-on treatments and admixture systems that enhance concrete durability, protecting and future-proofing your structures

Enhance the durability and lifespan – optimise coastal & marine concrete assets with our advanced solutions. Combat corrosion, improve waterproofing, and eliminate future maintenance Achieve full service life.

MARKHAM admixtures & spray-on treatments are safe to handle and safe for the environment – nil VOC, nil odour, water-based and non-toxic. MARKHAM has EPD’s (Environmental Product Declarations) for our project range

EXTEND CONRETE SERVICE LIFE

Concrete, needs to last longer.

MARKHAM’s range of water-based colloidal silica admixtures are safe, nil-VOC and nil-odour. They require low-volume doses, making logistics and storage more cost-effective for ready-mix  & precast producers.. Best of all, colloidal silica admixtures enhance the rheology of the mix, making it easier to place and finish.

  • CONQOR B50 admixture is sourced from a by-product of geothermal industry. This advanced durability &  waterproofing admixture permanently protects the concrete.
  • AQURON 300 admixture is one of MARKHAM’s original hydrogel products – an advanced waterproofing admixture that is perfect for mining with multiple benefits for both the construction team and the asset owner.

MARKHAM’s range of water-based colloidal silica spray-on treatements are safe, nil-VOC and nil-odour.

  • CONQOR CURE spray-applied hydrogel to provide concrete curing quality even in the harshest temperatures experience in the Australian mining industry.  Minimise shrinkage cracking. No surface coating to remove afterwards. CONQOR CURE has been proven as equal to water-ponding curing.
  • CONQOR PROTECT is an advanced spray-applied hydrogel treatment for concrete curing & protecting from the time of construction. Hydrogel’s Promotes crack self-healing in concrete further protecting the the concrete & reinforcing steel. Provide Curing arrests deterioration of concrete in one solution.
  • AQURON 2000 advanced spray-applied hydrogel treatment gives protection against water and chemical ingress. it promotes crack self-healing, penetrates deep into the concrete, and arrests deterioration and the steel corrosion process.

Repair & Remediate Ageing Concrete Structures

If your concrete infrastructure is already showing signs of age, corrosion or breakout damage, act early!

In many cases, deterioration can be arrested or slowed, restoring service life expectations. Alternatively, if spalling requires steel or cementitious content, include MARKHAM treatments as part of your solution to avoid ongoing issues such as IAS (Incipient Anode Syndrome).

  • AQURON 2000 advanced spray-applied hydrogel treatment gives protection against water and chemical ingress. it promotes crack self-healing, penetrates deep into the concrete, and arrests deterioration and the steel corrosion process.
  • CONQOR PROTECT is an advanced spray-applied hydrogel treatment for concrete. Promotes crack self-healing & provides hydrogel protection internally in the concrete to protect the reinforcing steel. Arrests deterioration.
  • AQURON 7000 is the ultimate spray-applied hydrogel treatment for pro-active maintenance of concrete. Ideal for extreme ambient conditions including marine zone and weather-exposed structures. Penetrates deep into the concrete, protecting the reinforcing steel. Arrests corrosion and deterioration.

 

What is CIVIL-TECT®?
This is the full MARKHAM experience providing product supply, installation, QA and finally a project-specific warranty will be offered based on asset condition and extent of works. These performance warranties are typically a minimum of 15 years.

This is in comparison to product supply only, where application is outside MARKHAM control, warranty is limited to replacement of product.

  • CIVIL-TECT® is a MARKHAM designed and installed systematised approach for remediating ageing concrete infrastructure, adding durability and service life.
  • Years of experience in adding durability to both new and existing structures has proven there is a better way. No need to rely on time-consuming, environmentally hazardous installations with lengthy downtime. Instead, treat the concrete itself with a permanent internal durability enhancement.
  • CIVIL-TECT® is a systematic approach to infrastructure protection. Combining the benefits of MARKHAM’s colloidal silica hydrogel treatments, admixtures and associated products with project-specific treatments, this is a holistic approach bundled into a single readily specifiable package.
  • CIVIL-TECT® is a long-term approach to concrete durability, reducing the need for new or replacement materials.
  • CIVIL-TECT® uses sustainable and environmentally friendly products. Overspray is not an issue. Nil VOC. Systems include options for potable water.

FAQs.

Find answers to commonly asked questions about improving the durability of new concrete.

Hydrogel treatments are permanent, as they react within the concrete to produce new C-S-H. Therefore they do not need to be re-applied.

For the full TECT system MARKHAM experience, a project-specific warranty will be offered based on asset condition and extent of works. These performance warranties are typically a minimum of 15 years. For product supply only, where application is outside MARKHAM control, warranty is limited to replacement of product.

Firstly, the TECT systems involve a project-specific approach and typically involve several products working together. Secondly, the TECT systems carry a performance-based project-specific warranty, due to MARKHAM being able to provide installation and quality control on site. Single products are still of the highest quality, and can provide effective protection when the customer follows the application procedure correctly. Single products carry a standard product replacement warranty.

Yes. The hydrogel treatment creates fresh C-S-H inside the concrete – concreteʼs own building molecule. There is nothing foreign introduced. There is no residual coating. Therefore any coating or paint designed to be applied to bare concrete can safely be applied to hydrogel-treated concrete.
