Culverts can be repaired and reinforced with concrete, and Tyfo® fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems, providing a durable solution that extends their lifespan and enhances performance.

Culverts are critical components of local infrastructure, ensuring proper water flow beneath roads, railways, and other structures and prevent flooding. Over time, these structures can deteriorate due to corrosion, environmental wear, and heavy usage.

As infrastructure continues to age, local councils face the critical challenge and increasing costs of maintaining and upgrading bridges to ensure public safety and seamless transport networks. A key component often overlooked in bridge maintenance is the bridge jointing system.

Seismic events pose significant risks to buildings and infrastructure, particularly in earthquake-prone regions across New Zealand. Modern engineering has advanced to address complex vulnerabilities effectively, with a leading innovation being Tyfo®Systems.

Dunedin homeowners and businesses often face challenges with damaged or deteriorating concrete surfaces. From cracked foundations to moisture issues, these challenges can compromise safety and aesthetics.

Bridge jointing plays a crucial role in New Zealand's roading infrastructure. Deck expansion joints are essential components that allow bridges to expand and contract with temperature changes and traffic loads. These joints prevent cracking and structural damage.

Leaking basements pose a significant challenge for many New Zealand building owners. The damp climate and frequent rainfall contribute to moisture issues in below-ground spaces, leading to structural damage and mould growth.

Concrete is a versatile building material composed of cement, water, and aggregates like sand and gravel. Its strength, durability, and fire resistance make it a popular choice for construction projects worldwide.

Concrete swimming pools are a popular feature across New Zealand, whether it be a commercial community pool, a school pool or a family pool. Even with regular maintenance, failures of the concrete structure can occur over time and require repair.

Commercial buildings, whether they be office high rises or logistic warehouses, are an expensive and important asset. These buildings can be subject to long term maintenance and repair requirements due to New Zealand's unique weather conditions and seismic activity.

Concrete damage in Christchurch can arise from various factors, including long term ground movement as a result of the earthquakes. Recognising the types and causes of concrete deterioration and assessing the extent of damage is crucial for effective repair and maintenance.

Due to its strong, durable properties, Concrete is used extensively across Auckland in many different building and infrastructure applications. Concrete repair is essential for maintaining the structural integrity and aesthetics of both residential and commercial buildings.

Stopping water ingress in construction projects is a critical task that requires reliable and effective solutions. The MC-Injekt range of injection resins provides a powerful tool for sealing cracks, crevices, and joints in concrete structures.
