In the world of concrete protection, not all solutions are created equal. At AgriCrete, we’ve developed a revolutionary 2-product system that’s changing the way industries approach concrete preservation. By combining our PIM+ (or PIM+ Type S) with PTS+ topcoat, we’ve created a complete protection solution that delivers unmatched performance and durability.

Why the 2-product approach works better

Traditional concrete treatments only address part of the problem. Our research has shown that proper concrete preservation requires both internal fortification and surface protection. The AgriCrete 2-product system delivers precisely this comprehensive approach:

  1. PIM+ or PIM+ Type S penetrates deep into the concrete, replacing water-soluble alkali salts with non-water-soluble silicate crystals
  2. PTS+ topcoat creates a protective barrier that repels liquids and makes cleaning significantly easier

Measurable benefits that make a difference

When comparing concrete treated with our 2-product system to standard untreated concrete, the differences are dramatic:

  • Waterproof concrete that’s up to 98% vaporproof
  • Increases surface hardness by at least 1,500 psi, creating a surface that resists abrasion and wear
  • Superior protection against acids, salts, and other damaging substances
  • Easier cleaning with a bead-up surface that repels liquids
  • Lower maintenance costs with less time, labor, and materials required

Formulation and handling

Both products in the system share the same basic properties. Our 2-product system is:

  • Water-based
  • Not flammable
  • Cleaned up with soap and water
  • Supplied with a safety data sheet for each product: read it before use and wear the gloves and eye protection it specifies

Cost-effective protection

Despite its superior performance, the AgriCrete 2-product system is remarkably affordable. At approximately CA$0.81 per square foot for PIM+ with PTS+ (or CA$0.85 for PIM+ Type S with PTS+), it provides an exceptional return on investment through:

  • Reduced maintenance costs
  • Extended concrete lifespan
  • Improved durability
  • Enhanced resistance to deterioration

Real-world applications

Our 2-product system has been successfully implemented across various industries:

  • Agricultural facilities
  • Manufacturing plants
  • Food processing facilities
  • Commercial buildings
  • Infrastructure projects
  • Residential applications
