Nuvoco Vistas, launches Concreto CorroSafe

17 Jun 2021 CW Team

Nuvoco Vistas, a cement manufacturing company, launches Concreto CorroSafe - a corrosion-resistant concrete that extends the life of buildings. The advanced concrete mix design is reinforced with corrosion-resistant admixtures that act as inhibitors towards water seepage and rusting, protecting the lifespan of the structures. It is specially designed to increase the density and durability of the concrete mix.

The durability of concrete is an important parameter for the long service life of structures. The special admix of Concreto CorroSafe protects steel and other metal alloys used in construction against water-induced carbonation, and penetration by sulphate and chloride ions. Carbonation occurs when carbon dioxide penetrates the concrete and reacts with water. The resultant reaction reduces the ph value of the concrete, causing corrosion. Sulphate ions react with concrete, causing it to expand and crack, while chloride ions cause corrosion. Concreto CorroSafe allows the concrete cover to remain intact for a longer duration. It makes the structure durable and minimises the repair and maintenance cost by increasing the service life of structures. Initially, the product will be available in Mumbai, Goa, Vizag and Bhubaneswar and later on it will be rolled out in other parts of the country as well.

With a strong and durable finish, Concreto CorroSafe is especially suitable for construction in moisture-density areas, industrial buildings, coastal buildings, as well as marine constructions like jetty and dolphin structures. As a strong foundation material, it is recommended for pile, pile caps, or any other substructures. The sturdy and dense concrete is also ideal for load-bearing constructions, such as bridges and metro stations.
