Concrete Protection for Skateparks and Action parks

When the least damage to the surface of the concrete is crucial, concrete impregnation can make the whole difference. Here we provide examples of how Innerseal is used in skate parks and action parks.

Safe and durable concrete in actionparks and skateparks with Innerseal impregnation

Concrete action parks and skateparks are subjected to hard wear and tear by skaters, weather and wind. Acid rain, air pollutants and cold weather cause the concrete to erode and crumble. Hard mechanical abrasion also causes damage to the surface. The former fine and smooth shiny surface will over time be damaged and cause high friction. Also a rough and damaged surface increases the risk for injuries. If the damaging process is allowed to proceed long enough, the rebars will corrode, concrete will crack and the concrete park must be closed.

Komsol Stockholm is specialised in preventive protection, reconditioning and maintenance of concrete parks in Europe. We train park builders, municipal administrations and skateboarding clubs on the best way how-too maintain and manage their parks so more can enjoy them for longer. Basically, this concerns regular waterproofing of the concrete with Innerseal concrete impregnation to protect and harden the surface without increasing the risk for slipping and injury. For this reason, it is totally unsuitable to use a “concrete paint” or other surface coating products that forms a film that makes the surface slippy and dangerous. A concrete surface protected with Innerseal is also easier to keep free from graffiti and is not as easily damaged by graffiti cleaning chemicals.

Innerseal also strengthens the concrete surface and increases the abrasion hardness by over 35%. In this way, the useful life of the facility is radically prolonged. Innerseal is completely environmentally-friendly and protects the surface in a natural way (no organic additives). On an already damaged surface must be reconditioned or repaired first. We restore the surface with our flexible grinding thechnology and then protect the concrete with Innerseal. We would be pleased to help you with a thorough inspection of your park and the measures that are needed.
