PUBLIC WORKS

Concrete Canvas^® (CC) is globally used by national governments, councils and local authorities for remediation works and a wide range of other applications.

WHY USE CC FOR PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS?

CC can be used to remediate existing infrastructure, greatly increasing the operational life of assets and avoiding costs associated with asset replacement and future maintenance. CC can be installed using hand tools, allowing local authorities, councils and government agencies to carry out works without specialist equipment or training. With a design life of 120 years and resistance to more than 200 cycles of freeze-thaw testing, chemicals and UV degradation, CC is very hard wearing, with five-times the wear resistance of OPC.

SOME OF THE PEOPLE WE HAVE WORKED WITH

“Concrete Canvas allowed us to quickly and effectively provide protection to a slope which was experiencing ground movement. The site was particularly diffi cult as it was on an exposed coastal cliff top and steep slope. The Concrete Canvas was laid in less than a day and without the need for heavy plant machinery, and also allowed the provision of an access ramp and superfi cial drainage. We would recommend its use to anyone facing similar challenges with slope stabilisation.”

Jacqueline Skipper - Senior Geologist, Geotechnical Consulting Group

“With the use of the Concrete Canvas, the Client was able to keep the existing culvert in place, giving it a new lease of life. This is a huge cost saving when compared to replacing the culvert entirely.”

“This product was the perfect solution for this problem as it allowed us stabilise the flood bank and give added protection against future high tides, with the added bonus of being quick and easy to install.”
