Over 10,000 m2 HardTape 1200g/m2 galvanized steel cord woven tape with specialized mortar was applied in one main Chinese oil dock reinforcement solution project in 2024.

In one main oil sea port of Haikou,Hainan province China,October 2024,Zhengzhou HardTape New Materials Technology Co.,Ltd,worked with port owner,made and supplied over 10,000 m2 HardTape 1200g/m2 medium-density high tensile steel cord woven tape for the dock strengthen project.

Concrete docks are vital assets that require robust maintenance and repair strategies to ensure their longevity and functionality. Cracks and structural failures in these docks can pose significant risks and disrupt operations.

Essential for marine and waterfront activities, these docks are exposed to a variety of stressors that can lead to cracking and failure. Constant exposure to waves, temperature fluctuations, saltwater corrosion along with impact damage are just a few things that can lead to gradual deterioration.

Repairing and reinforcing concrete docks with the HardTape 1200g/m2 steel cord woven tape offers a high-strength, durable, and cost-effective solution, providing long-term protection and enhancing the safety and reliability of waterfront infrastructure. High-tensile galvanized steel cord woven tape coated with specialized mortar has an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, providing robust reinforcement without adding significant weight to the dock. The HardTape does not corrode, making it ideal for use in harsh marine environments where exposure to saltwater is a constant concern. The application process for HardTape is quicker than traditional repair methods, minimizing downtime and disruption to dock operations. Investing in these repairs can be more cost-effective in the long run, as it prevents the need for more extensive and expensive repairs or complete replacements.
