ConmicShield® is "bio-tech armor" for concrete
Approximately 40% of all drainage structures in the US are made of concrete. Erosion of America’s wastewater systems by the effect of “Concrete Corrosion” is causing premature replacement of failed structures under highways causing expensive and disruptive repairs.

ConmicShield® is a unique solution designed to stop the corrosion before it begins. Incorporated into the concrete mix like any liquid additive, Conshield is a positively charged polymer that molecularly bonds to each concrete particle. It is precisely metered at the concrete plant so it is throughout the entire thickness of the concrete wall. Since it is not a surface treatment, it cannot wash off, chip off, delaminate, or disbond. The protection is permanent and lasts just as long as the concrete.

Prevents Corrosion Before it Begins!
Benefits of Specifying ConmicShield®
  • DURABLE - ConmicShield® prevents the colonization and growth of acid-producing bacteria on concrete in sanitary sewers. Once ConShield is incorporated into the mix, the bacteria cannot develop an immunity because bacteria are physically destroyed.
     
  • INTERNAL PROTECTION - Since ConmicShield® is fully incorporated into the concrete mix and is molecularly bonded to its ingredients, it lasts as long as the concrete. ConmicShield® is not a surface treatment; it is throughout the entire thickness of the pipe, manhole or structural lining.
     
  • COST EFFECTIVE - ConmicShield® does not require spark testing, seam welding or adhesion tests. ConmicShield® costs less to install than coatings or linings since it is precision metered into the mix. Expensive field applications, testing and repairs are eliminated.
     
  • PROVEN PERFORMANCE - Since its first commercial use in concrete in 1996, ConmicShield® has provided long-term MIC corrosion protection to more than one-million square feet of concrete throughout the World.
     
  • QUALITY CONTROL - ConmicShield® is provided through certified users who demonstrate their accurate and consistent procedures for mixing, processing and record verification. Each design mix is certified by
ConmicShield® is available through certified precast concrete pipe and manhole producers, ready-mix suppliers, and rehabilitation specialists throughout the World.
