New patching material

Barrier Coatings is moving into the agricultural market with its line of concrete sealers and patching materials.

Barrier 470 DPS is a non toxic deep penetrating sealer for new or existing concrete. It hardens the concrete, reduces dust and makes it waterproof.

It reduces freeze-thaw spalling, eliminates powdering and prevents chemical corrosion. Its agricultural uses include grain storage bins, fertilizer storage, hog barns and farm supply warehouses.

Mg-Krete is a concrete repair material for shallow feathering or deep pours. It cures rapidly, forming a strong bond and is stronger than concrete after two hours of drying.

It is waterproof, resistant to oils, gasoline and salt and is approved by Agriculture Canada for incidental food contact.

It is a two component product available in regular and fine grades.

For more information contact Barrier Coatings at 17-2220 Northridge Dr., Saskatoon, Sask., S7L 6X7 or phone 306-933-9988.
