CASTORCRETE® Urethane Cement Mortar

CASTORCRETE® Urethane Cement MortarUrethane Modified Concrete is a high-strength, high-barrier floor coating system. Urethane modified concrete is designed for use in the most demanding food and beverage processing areas where high resistance to impact, abrasion and chemical resistance to organic food acids is required.

CASTORCRETE® Urethane Cement Mortar has outstanding chemical resistance to most solvents, acids, alkalis, hot oils and animal by-products. CastorCrete® is designed to protect existing concrete or resurface moderately deteriorated concrete. It can withstand aggressive physical exposure to heavy-duty abrasion and impact, thermal shock and thermal cycling, steam cleaning, heavy traffic and forklift traffic.

The CastorCrete® system features a colored quartz broadcast finish in a single solid color or silica sand medium and is grout coated and top coated with a variety of products depending on the end use environment. This system is typically installed at 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) to ¼ inch (6.35 mm) thickness. It can be sealed with a variety of topcoats depending on environmental exposures and desired aesthetics.
