Innovative Repair System for Vertical and Overhead Surfaces

A lightweight epoxy repair composite for rebuilding damaged vertical and overhead concrete and masonry surfaces will be showcased at the Facilities Show on the 16th-18th of June. The high-build concrete repair material, Belzona 4141 (Magma-Build), will be demonstrated at Belzona stand Q1450 at the ExCeL Exhibition Centre in London, England.  

Belzona Commercial Director, Steve Cooper said, "If you have issues with Spalled Concrete then you need to see this demonstration. See how this hard wearing Belzona system is applied onto a vertical surface with no permanent shuttering required. This live demonstration will illustrate how quick, simple and easy it is to repair damaged surfaces using this versatile, lightweight system explaining why this is a long term permanent solution."

Belzona 4141 can be applied up to 12.7 cm thick on vertical surfaces and up to 7.6 cm thick on overhead surfaces without the use of shuttering during cure and only minimal support during the application.  

A solvent free material, Belzona 4141’s non-porous characteristics ensure the repair will not absorb water or chemicals once cured. Generally, concrete must be left to cure for a minimum of 28 days. However Belzona 4141 will achieve a full mechanical cure at 25°C within just 12 hours, and full chemical cure in only 3 days. Its robust properties further ensure excellent carbonation resistance and enable the substrate to withstand even the most extreme weather conditions.  

The main application areas for this system include repair of spalled or damaged concrete areas, weathered stonework, window sills, lintels, columns, archways and bridges, refurbishment of decorative moldings and other cosmetic repairs. 

Alongside the demonstration, experienced Belzona Business Managers will be on hand to discuss Belzona’s range of polymeric repair and protection solutions for floors, walls, roofs and pipework.
