Concrete, steel, stone – at first glance these seem like durable building materials that withstand the elements. But appearances are deceiving. Over time environmental influences such as rain, frost, pollutants and graffiti all take their toll on mineral-based building materials eventually causing damage that can be structural as well as cosmetic. Protectosil® CHEM-TRETE® and Protectosil® AQUA-TRETE® building protection products can help to prevent these problems and protect valuable public and private investments.
The Protectosil® product line is divided into four general categories:
Moisture is the root cause of almost all mechanisms that damage mineral building materials. Protectosil® CHEM-TRETE® and Protectosil® AQUA-TRETE® water repellents penetrate deeply into the substrate to create long-lasting protection from the negative effects of weather.
Over time corrosion of the steel rebar in reinforced concrete structures can lead to serious weakening of the reinforcements that require expensive repair. Protectosil® CIT – for Corrosion Inhibitor Treatment – actually prevents corrosion from starting.
Give taggers a hard time! Protectosil® ANTIGRAFFITI is an unique new penetrating treatment that is both durable and water vapor permeable.
Even where graffiti isn’t a problem, the appearance of a building facades can still be spoiled by soot, dust, mold, and mildew, for example. Surfaces treated with Protectosil® AQUA-TRETE® SG will remain remain clean longer and when cleaning is required, it’s easy.
