ACID PROOFING
Vitrified ceramic protection for chemical attack environments
Acid proofing ceramics protect concrete structures, steel vessels, floors, walls, and drainage systems from chemical attack by acids, alkalis, solvents, and corrosive process chemicals. They are the most cost-effective long-term protection system for chemical plants, effluent treatment works, and fertiliser plants.
