Parex Epoxy Thixotropic Injection Grout

Epoxy Thixotropic Injection Grout is a Thixotropic Two-Part Epoxy Resin System
  • Thixotropic.
  • Can be placed without the need for grout tight shuttering. 
  • High mechanical strength.
  • Good adhesion to most construction materials (i.e. concrete, masonry, stone, steel, wood, etc.).
  • Easy to use.
  • Can be placed with a suitable hand or mechanical pump.
  • Suitable for grouting and sealing the narrowest of gaps (as thin as 0.1mm).
  • Can be used to fill cracks, fissures and voids up to 10mm.
  • Non-shrink.
  • Application temperature range +5°C to +30°C.
  • High early strength gain.
  • Hardened grout is resistant to most chemicals, sea water and petroleum products.
  • Can provide structural support where dynamic load resistance is required.
  • Can be used to fill and bond cracked concrete.
  • Hardened grout resists freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Solvent free.
  • Available in a convenient 1.191kg size.

Parex Highway Rapidpave Cement

Ultra-Rapid Strength Gain Binder
  • Binder used in place of Ordinary Portland Cement to produce a rapid setting concrete.
  • All mixing water is completely chemically bound, resulting in no water surplus. The water surplus that occurs with other cement types is the cause of shrinkage, cracking and warping.
  • Non-shrink when used in well-designed concrete.
  • High freeze-thaw resistance.
  • Not based on Ordinary Portland Cement.
  • Higher water demand than concrete with Ordinary Portland Cement which results in an improved yield.
  • Quick setting.
  • Ultra-rapid strength gain (compressive strength of 35N/mm² achievable at only 4 hours).
  • High ultimate strength.
  • Rapid return to service.
  • Suitable for marine or tidal zones.
  • Can be delivered and placed in remote locations.
  • Does not require a concrete plant to produce concrete.
  • No risks of concrete hardening in transit or being unsuitable at the time of placing.
  • Exact amount of concrete produced, zero waste.
  • No specialist tools or training required for the contractor.
  • Consistent quality, unlike Pavement Quality Concrete which can vary from load to load.
  • Reduced CO2 emissions. Specialist cement used is considered a green binder because of the following factors:
    • This cement is calcined at 1250°C (2250°F), whereas Ordinary Portland Cement is calcined at a temperature of 1500°C (2700°C).
    • The clinker is much softer compared to Portland clinker, which reduces the energy requirement during grinding.
