Product Tests and Certificates

Certified production control according to the Directive of the Council of Europe SYSTEM 2+
The production control is a condition for CE marked products to obtain System 2+ and thus, be permitted for use on properties, infrastructure and structures of substantial value.  Certificate Production Control 2_Plus

EN 1504-2, System 2+, Products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures – Surface protection systems for concrete.
Innerseal and Innerseal Plus⁽⁺⁾ meet the requirements for impregnation systems by a very good margin and are CE marked in accordance with system 2+. CE marking is a statutory requirement inside the entire EU for all surface protection products (waterproofing, hydrophobing and surface) for concrete. System 2+ is an absolute requirement if the product is to be used on structures. Performance declarations are available for downloading under each product.

Innerseal has been tested for protection against chlorides in accordance with Nordic NT-Build 492. The values were then entered as parameters in the Internationally accepted Life-365 software, which calculates the service life of the concrete structures. The results show that one Innerseal treatment gives reinforced concrete a service life that is 3 times longer. The report can be sent on request.

Chemical resistance / acid test DIN 11622-2 for biogas and silage silos
On the world’s largest biogas market, the German state, insurance companies and financing banks set high requirements for chemical resistance in biogas silos. Products for protection must go through a test procedure according to DIN 11622-2, where treated concrete is exposed to a large concentration of butyric acid, acetic acid and lactic acid for 3 months. Innerseal passed the tests without adverse comment. The original documentation is in German, but we have translated it into Swedish, English and Spanish. The report can be sent on request.

Use in nuclear power stations
Innerseal has been tested and approved by Vattenfall with the classification: GREEN-2, which means that it may be used everywhere in the nuclear power station and that surplus should be collected. INNERSEAL is included in a multi-year project in Forsmark to protect and prolong the service life of the concrete in the WetWell (reactor inner containment) and cooling channels.

Damp Protection Brick
The Technical University of Munich has tested the water uptake in brick. A combination treatment with Innerseal and Topseal reduced the absorption capacity by 20 times. The report can be sent on request.

Re-alkalization and concrete rehabilitation
Imasalab has tested the pH in old washed out concrete and has shown that Innerseal increases the pH significantly, in the sample from 8,8 to 10,1. This increase means that rehabilitation instead of demolition can be a very good option. The test also shows that preventive maintenance with Innerseal is not only important but also very profitable.
