"S Cleat Up" is a silicate-based concrete modifier that boasts high penetration power. It quickly penetrates into the cracks and modifies from the inside. It alkalizes carbonated concrete. Additionally, it has leak prevention and efflorescence suppression effects, contributing to the longevity of concrete. 【Features】 ■ Crack suppression effect ■ Ideal for improving the strength of existing concrete ■ One-component formulation with excellent workability *For more details, please download the catalog or feel free to contact us.

The "S-Crete Method" is a composite construction technique that enhances and strengthens the interior of concrete using "S-Crete Up (silicate-based)" and "S-Crete Guard (silane-siloxane-based)" to form a waterproof layer and a water-repellent layer, thereby improving the durability of structures. This method increases the modification and water impermeability of the concrete interior, suppresses the occurrence and expansion of cracks, and further enhances the durability of concrete structures by providing water-repellent effects on the concrete surface and inhibiting the intrusion of chloride ions, contributing to the longevity of buildings. 【Features】 ■ Water and moisture proofing of concrete structures ■ Rust prevention for rebar ■ Suppression of salt damage ■ Suppression of freeze damage ■ Suppression of efflorescence ■ Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS Registration Number: KT-160122-A *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

The "S-Crete Method" is a composite technique that modifies and strengthens the interior of concrete using "S-Crete Up (silicate-based)" and "S-Crete Guard (silane-siloxane-based)" to form a waterproof layer and a water-repellent layer, thereby enhancing the durability of structures. The construction procedure is very simple, requiring no special tools or equipment, and can be applied regardless of the site environment. By combining two types of surface impregnation materials, the characteristics of both products are maximized. 【Features and Effects】 ≪S-Crete Up≫ ■ Deep penetration into the concrete ■ Fills micro-voids within the concrete, making it denser ■ Provides an alkalinity recovery effect, suppressing neutralization and preventing the occurrence and progression of cracks ≪S-Crete Guard≫ ■ The components that penetrate the concrete form a waterproof layer consisting of a modified layer and a super water-repellent layer ■ Suppresses the entry of deteriorating substances such as water and chloride ions ■ Excellent depth of penetration *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

The "S-Crete Up Water Stop Type" is a leakage prevention and modification agent for permeable silicate concrete. Most leakages occur through capillary action, but this product deeply penetrates the concrete, contributing to leakage prevention and enhancement. Additionally, it is cost-effective in terms of running costs. 【Features】 ■ Fills the capillaries and fine cracks (less than 0.1mm) in the concrete, preventing leakage ■ Minimizes crack shrinkage after application to prevent recurrence of leakage ■ Penetrates deeply to maximize the effects of modification and strengthening ■ Gradually expels excess moisture and water from within the concrete, bringing it closer to the normal humidity rate *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"S-Crete CA+" contains nitrite, which allows it to provide rust prevention effects on the rebar within concrete. After applying this product, the application of the silicate surface penetrating agents "S-Crete Up" and "S-Crete Up Li" will lead to the reformation of the calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) layer. This contributes to re-densifying concrete structures and improving the alkalinity of carbonated concrete. 【Features】 ■ Reformation of the calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) layer ■ Contributes to improving the alkalinity of carbonated concrete ■ Provides rust prevention effects due to the presence of nitrite ■ Usable on concrete that has experienced efflorescence or alkali-silica reaction (ASR) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"S-Crete Up Li" is a permeable concrete modifier that incorporates fine silica-based lithium nanoparticles. After application, it quickly penetrates into the concrete, filling voids and modifying the concrete. It effectively restores concrete that has progressed in carbonation over time, as well as concrete that has developed fine cracks due to salt damage, freeze-thaw damage, or alkali-silica reactions. 【Features】 ■ Crack reoccurrence suppression effect ■ Contains silica-based lithium ■ High water-stopping effect ■ Improved chloride ion suppression performance ■ Colorless and transparent *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"S-Crete Up Li" is a permeable concrete modifier that contains fine silica-based lithium nanoparticles. After application, it quickly penetrates the concrete, filling voids and modifying the concrete. It effectively restores concrete that has undergone carbonation over time, as well as concrete that has developed fine cracks due to salt damage, freeze-thaw damage, or alkali-silica reactions. 【Features】 ■ Crack reoccurrence suppression effect ■ High water stopping effect ■ Improved chloride ion suppression performance ■ Enhanced ASR suppression effect ■ Improved rust prevention performance Additionally, under aging and harsh environmental conditions, the calcium content in concrete affected by efflorescence (whitening) or alkali-silica reactions (ASR) tends to be deficient. By applying "S-Crete CA+" as a calcium supplement for concrete, followed by "S-Crete Up Li," the concrete structure can be densified again, contributing to the improvement of alkalinity in carbonated concrete. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The risks that arise when concrete deteriorates can be broadly categorized into two main points. One risk is the decrease in seismic resistance, and the other is the potential for concrete spalling and falling. To improve the decrease in seismic resistance, extensive renovation work by specialized contractors is necessary. Regarding spalling and falling, the cause is often due to rust on the rebar, so it is important to first suppress the progression of rust and carry out anti-corrosion treatment.
