Concrete Canvas® (CC) is used for a wide range of erosion control applications. It allows concrete construction with minimal plant and specialist training.
​
Typically ten-times faster to install than conventional solutions, essentially its Concrete on a Roll: simply unroll and Just Add Water.
WHAT IS CC?
CC consists of a 3-dimensional fibre matrix containing a specially formulated dry concrete mix. A PVC backing on one surface of the CC ensures the material is completely water proof.
CC can be hydrated by spraying or full immersion in fresh or salt water. Once set, the fibres reinforce the concrete, preventing crack propagation and providing a safe plastic failure mode, to provide a thin, durable, water proof and low-carbon concrete layer.
​
CC is available in 3 thicknesses: CC5™, CC8™ and CC13™, which are respectively 5, 8 and 13mm thick.
CC USER BENEFITS
RAPID INSTALLATION
CC can be laid at a rate of 200m²/hour, up to 10 times faster than conventional concrete solutions.
EASY TO USE
Available in man-portable rolls. CC requires less plant, less personnel and no on-site mixing or measuring. Just add water.
LOWER PROJECT COSTS
The speed and ease of installation mean CC is more cost-effective than conventional concrete, with less logistical burden. For example, a single lorry of CC8 can substitute for thirty-four 17T Mixer Trucks.
ECO-FRIENDLY
CC is a low mass, low carbon technology which uses up to 95% less material than conventional solutions. A single pallet of CC can cover the same area as two 17T mixer trucks for many applications.
