Building products manufacturer, Sika, has launched a new concrete repair solution that provides greater long-term protection for buildings and sets a new standard for low environmental impact concrete by significantly reducing CO2 emissions.
Sika has invested in the trusted Sika MonoTop® brand which rewrites the rule book in terms of low-carbon concrete repair. With 45 million buildings in the UK alone thought to be in need of refurbishment in order to comply with regulation energy performance, Sika's sustainable MonoTop® range is the ideal repair solution for addressing such an issue. Its sustainable, reliable performance follows years of research by Sika's technical teams, resulting in a proven, premier solution that compared to other concrete repair solutions, uses less carbon emissions – up to 1 tonne of CO2 per 100m2.
John Baron at Sika, said: "We are extremely excited to be launching this new system, an evolution of Sika's trusted MonoTop® brand. MonoTop® is a key part of Sika's long-term policy to create solutions which are as renowned for their sustainable performance as their excellent repair performance. We are very proud of this product. It will serve our buildings and the construction industry as a whole very well."
