Water infrastructure, which includes water treatment and storage facilities as well as sewage treatment plants, is subject to harsh environmental conditions characterized by aggressive chemical exposures and continuous moisture challenges. DEEPCURE+Repeller, crafted by Integra, offers essential protection for these concrete structures, ensuring they maintain integrity and functionality against environmental stressors that can lead to rapid degradation.

Challenges Facing Water Industry Infrastructure

• Aggressive Chemicals and Gases: Concrete structures within the water industry frequently encounter corrosive chemicals and gases, accelerating concrete degradation and leading to structural vulnerabilities.
• Moisture and Leakage: Persistent exposure to water can cause problems like weeping tanks, significantly undermining the efficiency and safety of water management systems.
• Sustainability and Maintenance Needs: Achieving sustainable operations and maintaining the structural integrity of water infrastructure with minimal downtime are critical challenges requiring innovative solutions.

DEEPCURE+Repeller: A Comprehensive Solution

Robust Protection for Concrete Structures DEEPCURE+Repeller is specially formulated to enhance the durability and protective capabilities of concrete used in the water industry, effectively shielding against both internal and external threats.

• Barrier Against Chemicals and Gases: Applying DEEPCURE+Repeller forms a robust barrier that blocks harmful chemicals and gases from penetrating the concrete, significantly reducing the risk of spalling and surface degradation.
• Advanced Moisture Shielding: By deeply penetrating the concrete, DEEPCURE+Repeller establishes a moisture-resistant barrier that prevents water ingress, addressing potential weeping and leakage issues effectively.
• Long-Term Durability: The dual benefits of DEEPCURE and Repeller not only protect but also strengthen the concrete, ensuring that water infrastructure withstands operational stresses for longer periods.

Targeted Applications in the Water Industry DEEPCURE+Repeller versatility makes it exceptionally effective across various segments of the water industry, where durability and protection are paramount.

• Water Treatment Facilities: In environments where water is treated with diverse chemicals, DEEPCURE+Repeller ensures that concrete structures resist the harsh chemical impacts, maintaining structural integrity over time.
• Sewage Treatment Plants: These facilities often face exposure to highly corrosive gases and acidic substances; here, DEEPCURE+Repeller’s protective properties are essential for prolonging the lifespan of concrete containment and processing structures.
• Rapid Repair for Existing Infrastructure: Facilities experiencing issues like weeping tanks can significantly benefit from an application of DEEPCURE or DeepBarrier, which quickly seals leaks and restores functionality, reducing downtime and repair costs.

Benefits for the Water Industry

Using DEEPCURE+Repeller brings several significant advantages to water infrastructure projects, enhancing performance and reducing lifecycle costs.

• Enhanced Service Life: Providing a comprehensive protective layer, DEEPCURE+Repeller significantly extends the service life of facilities involved in water treatment, storage, and sewage management.
• Cost-Effective Maintenance: The improved resistance to environmental stressors diminishes the need for frequent repairs and maintenance, resulting in long-term cost savings.
• Operational Reliability: Secure and robust infrastructure ensures higher operational reliability and efficiency, which are critical for community health and safety.
