Concrete

Concrete is widely used throughout industry in the construction of bridges, commercial buildings, dams, chimneys etc. Concrete offers high compression strength however its tensile strength is poor in comparison. However strong the concrete, it will still be susceptible to damage from the environment, including erosion from fast flowing water, impact and chemical damage.

When coating concrete with industrial paints it is important to choose the right product, which will adhere and protect against the eventual damage. You can be confident that these concrete primers will maintain the concrete and prolong its useful life. However as all of these concrete primers are epoxies, prolonged exposure to UV light will cause chalking.

For suitable topcoats take a look at our ‘Industrial Paints Guide’.
