Concrete Bridge Maintenance Product
Description
BridgeDECK® PROtectant is a bio-based, water-
proofing product, specifically designed for D.O.T.
applications or large bridges. BridgeDECK PROtectant
employs a sodium silicate formula, that is enzymati-
cally modified to chemically bond with concrete. With
the introduction of water, the formula increases in
mass and forms a gel that encapsulates water trying
to enter the concrete. This vapor permeable gel fills
cracks, pores, and voids in the concrete, creating a
long-term barrier to water infiltration. It penetrates
into the concrete and it reacts with the calcium and
water contained in the concrete, to form a calcium
silicate gel complex that fills the cracks, pores, and
capillaries.
