CONQOR TCB
Curing in extreme cold or heat.
CONQOR TCB (Thermal Curing Blankets) offset the challenges of extreme cold or heat when curing concrete.
- Cold weather curing
- Hot weather curing
- Minimise thermal differentials
CONQOR TCB
CONQOR TCB thermal curing blankets protect against temperature differentials, both cold and heat.
CONQOR TCB thermal curing blankets are designed for use in concrete construction when ambient temperatures are particularly low or high. Concrete curing in low ambient temperatures (below 10°C) will take longer to achieve the desired strength. Conversely, curing in high ambient temperatures (over 32°C) encourages uneven curing and shrinkage cracking.
- CONQOR TCB will protect concrete during curing and help it reach the desired strength in a shorter time frame.
- CONQOR TCB reduces the temperature differential between the core and surface curing temperatures.
- CONQOR TCB also helps reduce shrinkage in extreme heats.
Typical project applications include bridges, wind farms, precast yards, mass pours and large infrastructure projects.
NOTE: CONQOR TCB is manufactured to order and is not typically held in stock.
CONQOR TCB
Who it helps.
Ideal Solution for
Construction teams in winter.
Concrete curing in low ambient temperatures (below 10°C) will take longer to achieve desired strength. CONQOR TCB retains the curing heat of the slab, minimizing temperature differential between the core and the surface.
Also HELPS
Exposed civil infrastructure.
Ambient temperature extremes are a particular challenge in highly exposed outdoor works. Whether for extreme cold or heat, CONQOR TCB protects the concrete while curing to avoid unexpected damage.
USED by
Wind turbine construction.
CONQOR TCB thermal curing blankets are particularly suited to wind turbine bases, with their high volume concrete and typically highly exposed locations subject to high winds, as seen on the Murra Warra wind farm project.
works for
Precasters.
Precast yards and factories may use CONQOR TCB to reduce thermal differential between internal and surface concrete while curing.
CONQOR TCB
How it helps.
CONQOR TCB reduces the temperature differential between the core and surface curing temperatures.
CONQOR TCB
Keep warmth in
In cold weather, CONQOR TCB will protect the concrete while curing and allow it to achieve desired strength in a shorter time frame.
CONQOR TCB
Keep warmth out
CONQOR TCB assists in reducing shrinkage in extreme heat.
CONQOR TCB
Minimise internal thermal differentials
CONQOR TCB reduces the temperature differential between the core and surface curing temperatures.
CONQOR TCB
HOW IT WORKS.
CONQOR TCB thermal curing blankets help protect concrete during the curing phase, in extreme cold or hot ambient temperatures.

Insulation
CONQOR TCB contains a layer of thermal insulation, sandwiched within a durable woven polyethylene cover. This insulation protects against heat loss or gains. The thermal insulation protects against heat loss on the surface, while the polyethylene cover protects against heat from direct sunlight. This will also help protect the concrete from natural elements such as rain and wind.
CONQOR TCB
Protects against extreme cold
Concrete curing in low ambient temperatures (below 10°C) will take longer to achieve desired strength. CONQOR TCB retains the curing heat of the slab, minimizing temperature differential between the core and the surface.
CONQOR TCB
Protects against extreme heat
Curing concrete in high ambient temperatures (over 32°C) encourages uneven curing and shrinkage cracking. CONQOR TCB provides a barrier against the extremes.

Limitations
CONQOR TCB is manufactured to order and is not typically held in stock. Standard panel sizes are available with normal production lead times. Custom sizes can be manufactured on request, subject to extended lead times and minimum order quantities. Please contact us to discuss your needs.
Working with MARKHAM.
CONQOR TCB is supplied for project-specific applications. For major infrastructure, bridge, renewable energy and large concrete projects, speak with MARKHAM early regarding blanket selection, sizing and project lead times.
‘TCB’ stands for Thermal Curing Blanket that helps reduce the thermal difference between the inside of the slab and the surface, and helps preserve the early strength of the concrete.
