The Upgrade
Stop Replacing Concrete. Start Upgrading It.
Across North America, owners are spending billions replacing concrete that isn’t actually “worn out.”
Garages get rebuilt. Balconies get demolished. Slabs get removed. Foundations get underpinned.
But in many cases, the concrete itself still has decades of life left — it’s simply suffering from:
• Micro-cracking
• Chloride intrusion
• Moisture transport
• Freeze–thaw damage
• Reinforcement corrosion risk
• Surface dusting and permeability
In other words, the problem isn’t the concrete. It’s the chemistry.
And chemistry can be fixed.
The SURTREAT Way: Upgrade, Don’t Replace
SURTREAT Ion-Exchange Densification takes a fundamentally different approach from traditional repair.
Instead of adding coatings, membranes, or overlays, we transform the concrete itself.
Our technology:
✓ Penetrates the concrete surface
✓ Reacts within the pore structure
✓ Densifies and strengthens the matrix
✓ Reduces permeability and moisture transport
✓ Slows corrosion initiation
✓ Increases long-term durability
The result?
Concrete that is:
• Stronger
• Less permeable
• More durable
• More resilient
• Longer lasting
— without changing appearance or adding layers that can fail.
Engineers Appreciate the Science
Traditional sealers and coatings sit on top and eventually wear off.
SURTREAT works inside the concrete through ion exchange reactions that:
• Refine pore structure
• Improve surface hardness
• Reduce water and chloride ingress
• Support long-term durability
This is why engineers increasingly specify densification for:
• Parking structures
• Precast elements
• Foundations and slabs
• Coastal structures
• Utility infrastructure
• Condo balconies and garages
• Industrial floors
Not as cosmetic treatment — but as durability engineering.
Owners Appreciate the Economics
Replacement is expensive. Disruption is worse.
The SURTREAT solution allows owners to:
✓ Extend asset life
✓ Delay major capital projects
✓ Reduce maintenance cycles
✓ Improve structural resilience
✓ Lower lifecycle cost
All with minimal disruption and rapid return to service.
The Invisible Upgrade
The best infrastructure improvement is the one nobody notices.
No new coating color.
No membrane peeling.
No downtime for tenants.
No visual change.
Just concrete that performs better, longer.
A Question Worth Asking
Before your next replacement project, ask:
Is this concrete actually failing… or just unprotected?
Because often, the strongest structure is the one you already have.
And SURTREAT helps it last.
