Written by Tyler | Sep 21, 2023 9:58:00 AM

The marine sector has always been at the mercy of the relentless elements and their unpredictable behavior. Coastal and marine infrastructure, like jetties and harbors, face constant challenges from water ingress, corrosion, and structural degradation. But how do companies ensure that these infrastructures remain robust and functional for the long run?

The Answer: Expertise and Innovative Solutions.

Enter the Stolthaven Thunderer Jetty Project.

When presented with the challenge of the Stolthaven Thunderer Jetty, Premcrete took a proactive approach to guarantee structural integrity:

  • Thorough Testing: Before deploying any solution, rigorous testing was conducted to determine the right products that would address the specific needs of the Jetty.
  • Quality Products: Our Teknodure HS100 and Teknodure AW65 grouts emerged as the frontrunners. They’re not just products; they’re solutions designed to confront the most severe marine challenges head-on.
  • On-Site Support: Ensuring a product’s efficiency isn’t just about its application but also about its correct usage. Our team provided comprehensive on-site support to ensure that if there were any issues, we could wrap them up efficiantly and effectivly.

Premcrete’s Role in Marine Sector Projects

Marine projects demand a deep understanding of both the challenges posed by the marine environment and the solutions required to counteract these challenges. Our engagement isn’t limited to Stolthaven. Here’s how we’ve made a difference in several other notable marine sector projects:

  • Dawlish: Re-building the critical sea defence structure to protect the highly trafficked rail from coastal attack.
  • Scrabster Harbour: Construction of the new St Ola Pier.
  • South Bank Quay: Reinforcing the quay to withstand both daily operations and unpredictable marine conditions.
  • Broughty Ferry: Flood defence project, the precast steps were set with our grout.
  • Dawdon: Mine water treatment scheme.
