CARE EPC provides professional corrosion control and steel treatment services in compliance with BS EN 1504-7. Our goal is to restore reinforcement integrity, prevent further corrosion, and prepare a sound base for lasting concrete repair.

Corrosion Control and Treatment of Exposed Reinforcement

Corrosion Control and Treatment of Exposed Reinforcement

CARE EPC ensures that corroded or exposed reinforcement is properly assessed, cleaned, and protected prior to repair in strict accordance with BS EN 1504-7. Our comprehensive process restores the durability and performance of the reinforcement system.

Our Process Includes:

  • Surface preparation by grit blasting or high-pressure water jetting to remove rust, scale, and contaminants.
  • Application of corrosion inhibitors and re-passivation primers to prevent further corrosion.
  • Use of electrochemical techniques such as cathodic protection to mitigate the incipient anode effect.
  • Ensuring full compatibility of the prepared reinforcement with subsequent repair materials.

These procedures guarantee long-term corrosion resistance and provide a durable foundation for ongoing structural repairs.

Compliance Standards

All corrosion control measures are implemented according to BS EN 1504-7 and industry best practices, ensuring compliance, durability, and structural safety in all conditions.
