Now you can reduce the salts that may cause concrete corrosion

While some treatments to interrupt concrete corrosion are costly and invasive, Cocoon is different.

Applied on the slab surface, Cocoon migrates into the pores of the concrete structure. As it does, it diffuses and withdraws accumulated salts, removing salinity from the structure and preventing further degradation.

This is different to treatments such as cathodic protection which protects the steel from the salt, as Cocoon works to actually remove the salts. The result, is a solution that can be used in conjunction with, or in some cases, instead of other treatment options.

In many cases, Cocoon enables you to easily reduce salt levels to non-corrosive levels within 6 weeks.
