INDUSTRIAL ACID PROOFING

Acid corrosion can be a catastrophic type of failure. Prior to the installation of high-performance acid-resistant systems, DGC will ensure that the substrate is sufficiently prepared and cleaned, especially if there was previous exposure to acids; such incidents leave acid salt deposits on the substrate. DGC will also undertake any concrete rehabilitation work to ensure that any damaged or spalled concrete is structurally sound prior to any acid-proofing installations.

​

Depending on the specific requirements dictated by the site; such as chemical concentrations, temperature, and exposure, DGC will specify and install either a high performance chemical resistant liquid applied glass flake reinforced epoxy, vinyl ester or polyester system, or acid resistant bricks and mortar.
