Challenge: Damage in Animal Environments
Issue: The constant and heavy traffic of animals in zoological settings accelerates surface wear, leading to degradation and internal cracking of concrete, creating hazards for the animals, care team, and visitors.
CreteCare Pro creates safer environments for animals by reducing the risk of trips and falls caused by cracks, holes, and uneven concrete. This added safety not only helps prevent injuries but also improves overall comfort in enclosures and walkways.
CreteCare Pro strengthens and protects the underlying substrate— sealing microcracks, blocking moisture, and preventing harmful contaminants from penetrating. The result is a more durable, resilient surface that stands up to daily activity and harsh environmental conditions.
CHALLENGE: Elevated Chemical Erosion in Animal Environments
THREATS: Acids, sulfates, ammonia, chlorides, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
WHAT HAPPENS: Manure/urine and washdowns introduce corrosive compounds that penetrate concrete, driving chemical attack, softening paste, and accelerating spalling.
WHY IT MATTERS: Faster deterioration, slick/unsafe surfaces, higher maintenance costs, and shortened service life.
WHAT TO PREVENT: Acid attack (incl.H2S → sulfuric), sulfate expansion, chloride-driven corrosion, and ammonia-induced surface breakdown.
CreteCare Pro is hydrophobic and remains fluid within the concrete's capillary system, creating a resilient internal barrier that withstands the harsh effects of animal environments. It actively repels acids, sulfates, ammonia, chlorides, and hydrogen sulfide, preventing harmful chemical reactions. This deep, lasting protection safeguards both the concrete matrix and embedded reinforcement from corrosion, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Challenge: Moisture Management
Issue: Concrete's natural porosity makes it vulnerable to heavy moisture intrusion. In zoological environments, routine care and cleaning for the inhabitants expose surfaces to frequent water contact, leading to wet-dry cycling deterioration, increased porosity, micro-cracking, and freeze-thaw damage.
CreteCare Pro significantly reduces water absorption by 85% to 93% through the formation of a deep, hydrophobic barrier-greatly minimizing the risk of moisture-induced damage, which is often accelerated in animal environments. This protection helps maintain safer, more stable surfaces while extending the service life of the concrete.
Challenge: Durability Under Heavy Equipment
THREATS: Concrete in agricultural and industrial settings it bears the load of heavy machinery, including tractors, loaders, and equipment. Over time, this can result in surface abrasion, stress fractures, and structural wear.
By reinforcing the concrete matrix from within, CreteCare Pro increases the load-bearing capacity of treated surfaces. The result is reduced surface wear, increased impact resistance, and a longer service life—even under extreme mechanical stress.
