SALTWATER DOESNT FORGIVE

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 concrete in harsh coastal & marine  with multiple benefits for both the construction team and the asset owner.
  • CONQOR B52 admixture is unique – the world’s first hybrid hydrogel admixture. This two-part additive provides both waterproofing and water repellency, and is intended for high-risk and extreme environments such as marine or mining structures.

 

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.

Existing Concrete Structures:

Repair and Remediate Ageing coastal Concrete Structures

If your structure 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 IAF.

  • 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 enhancing the longevity and resilience of marine and coastal concrete structures.

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.

All products are available in 20 litre drums. Some products can be supplied in 1000 litre totes for bulk usage – please enquire.

Yes. The hydrogel treatment creates fresh C-S-H inside the concrete – concrete’s 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.

Hydrogel products are nil VOC, nil toxin, nil odour, and safe for the environment. They are water based. Yes, they are safe to use. No, they do not have odours or other handling disadvantages.
