CE Marking
The European Standards EN 1504 have been fully implemented since January 1st, 2009. Existing National Standards which have
not been harmonized with the new EN 1504 were therefore withdrawn at the end of 2008 and CE Marking has become mandatory.
All products used for concrete repair and protection now have to be CE marked in accordance with the appropriate part of EN
1504. This CE conformity marking contains the following information using the example of a concrete repair mortar suitable
for structural use:

An impregnation is defined as the treatment of concrete to
reduce the surface porosity and to strengthen the surface.
The pores and capillaries are partly or totally filled. This
type of treatment also usually result in a discontinuous
thin film of 10 to 100 microns thickness on the surface.
Certain impregnations can react with some of the concrete
constituents to result in higher resistance to abrasion and
mechanical attack.

Testing the Performance of Corrosion Inhibitors
Sika has introduced Surface Applied
Corrosion Inhibitors in 1997.
Since then, millions of square metres of
reinforced concrete have been protected
from corrosion all over the world. Sika
FerroGard -903+ covers the Principle
9 (Cathodic control) and Principle 11
(Anodic control). Since this introduction
many studies have confirmed the efficiency
of the corrosion protection afforded by this
technology.
The latest international
reports, amongst many
available from leading
institutions worldwide,
are from the University
of Cape Town South Africa, showing its
efficiency in carbonated structures. From
the Building Research Establishment (BRE)
showing the effectiveness of Sika
FerroGard -903+ applied as a preventative measure in a heavily chloride
contaminated environment. This performance was monitored and evaluated over a
2,5 year programme (BRE 224-346A)
