The decision to include Xypex Bio-San in the concrete mixture was driven by its superior long-term protection of concrete in harsh sewage conditions that cause microbial-induced corrosion (MIC).
Bio-San provides antimicrobial protection, prevents water infiltration/exfiltration, and resists acid and sulphates, extending the lifespan of concrete sewage and wastewater systems. A significant advantage of Bio-San lies in our Visual Detection System (VDS) which is integral to the admixture.
This cutting-edge system provides a definitive method for confirming the presence of Xypex Crystalline Waterproofing Admixture within hardened concrete, ensuring quality and adherence to industry-leading standards.
