Stadiums & Concourses
Sports stadium reinforced concrete surfaces are routinely exposed to extremely large crowds, environmental stressors, and movement that contribute to overall wear and tear of structural integrity. Without routine maintenance or protection of reinforced concrete, concrete repair will certainly become a cost burden to owners.
Corrosion brought on by recurring freeze-thaw, wetting/drying cycles, and movement will cause concrete to crack and spall leaving an entry point for moisture with the potential for severe structural damage. As a result, steel supports or attachments to seating elements will eventually corrode causing discoloration and fracturing of the concrete surface.
Foxfire Matrix Pro® reacts with free calcium hydroxide forming a silica hydrogel that fills the capillaries within the matrix. This hydrogel permanently seals the matrix internally, greatly reducing the ingress of damaging moisture and chloride ions, while simultaneously maintaining breathability of the substrate and allowing trapped moisture vapor to escape.
Surface applied Foxfire Matrix Pro® Internal Crystalline Waterproofing
Greatly reduces moisture and chloride intrusion into concrete and masonry substrates
Deep penetration into concrete substrates 2” – 4”
Offers a high degree of protection against rebar corrosion, spalling, freeze-thaw damage and alkali attack
Internally strengthens concrete
Effectively reduces ASR (Alkali Silica Reaction)
Enhances bond strength of toppings, coatings, sealers, or paint
Low absorption rate of diffusion properties (Liquids & Gases)
Purges soluble chlorides and prevents re-entry
Permanently cures, seals, hardens and dust-proofs freshly placed concrete
Resists hydrostatic pressures
Does not alter surface profile or breathability
Non-toxic. ZERO-VOC
Foxfire Products for Stadiums & Concourse Concrete Surfaces
Foxfire Matrix Pro®
Foxfire Matrix Pro™ will permanently harden, densify, strengthen, reduce soluble chlorides, and effectively cure and seal new or aged concrete surfaces. When properly applied, Foxfire Matrix Pro™ blocks and reduces vapor emissions in the slab but allows the surface to breathe.
Foxfire SS-WB Repellent™
Foxfire Matrix Pro SS-WB™ is a single-component, low VOC, penetrating silane-siloxane water repellent. It is an easily applied, water-based product formulated to penetrate most masonry and concrete pores and capillaries up to 1/4-inch or more, depending on surface porosity and moisture content at the time of application.
Foxfire Multi-Clean
Foxfire Multi-Clean™ is a waterborne high- performance blend of surface-active agents that will remove oil, grease and dirt residue from concrete or masonry surfaces.
