What is Tapecrete ? |
Tapecrete is a wear and impact resistant cementitious system for the waterproofing, protection and repair of concrete and masonry structures.It is environmentally friendly and non-toxic. |
|
Uses of Tapecrete :Wear and impact resistant waterproof overlays:Thin layers of Tapecrete overlays (2 - 15mm thick) provide wear, impact, freeze and thaw, seawater and salt resistant as well as carbonation impeding toppings.Concrete repairs:Structural integrity can easily be re-established in damaged, spalled and deteriorated concrete structures using Tapecrete mortar, concrete or shotcrete. Waterproof and dampproof coatings:On concrete and masonry surfaces with no cracks, Tapecrete mortars act as a waterproof, weather-resistant and decorative coating - and when applied to reinforcing steel, they act as a corrosion inhibiting coating.Waterproof and dampproof membranes:On concrete and masonry surfaces that are cracked, or where impact loads are common, Tapecrete slurries are combined with a proprietary FRC reinforcing fabric. The type and number of layers of reinforcement vary with the application, but typically only one layer is sufficient. Tapecrete membranes are suitable for many applications including: |
-Watertowers, tanks and reservoirs |
-Tunnels, sewers and channels |
-Spillway liners |
-Silos and manure tanks |
-Pools and theme park aquariums |
-Foundation and retaining walls, planters |
-Terrariums |
-Repair of asbestos panels and pipes |
-Sealing asbestos surfaces |
-Suspended walkways |
-Non-skid surfaces |
-Architectural coatings |
Bonding agent:Tapecrete slurries act as an excellent bonding agent when applied to subsurfaces for regular concrete repairs, overlays, and standard shotcrete applications. |

Features of Tapecrete Tapecrete is a versatile system that can be customized to meet given requirements and properties such as: |
Strength Vapour Transmission Wear resistance Freeze and thaw resistance Salt and carbonation resistance Complete UV (Ultra Violet light) resistance Resistant to a broad range of chemicals Custom colors and finishes Non-flammable with no toxic fumes |
In addition, Tapecrete can be applied to properly prepared damp surfaces with the same excellent bonding results obtained from dry surfaces. |
