Gidrobeton KRIO-1 — grout for work at sub-zero temperatures
Rapid-hardening non-shrink mix for grouting columns, equipment and bridge bearings at air temperatures down to −10 °C.

Polypropylene fibre and compensated shrinkage are the main features of Gidrobeton SRG-F1, made with Portland cement and aggregate up to 5 mm. It is used to repair defects in concrete and reinforced concrete structures in interior and exterior work, including in tanks and treatment plants. At 28 days the compressive strength is at least 50 MPa, flexural 4.5 MPa, bond to concrete 2.0 MPa, frost resistance at least 300 cycles.

|---|---|
| Type | thixotropic repair mortars |
| Use | tanks and treatment plants, floors |
| Base | shrinkage-compensated dry mix: Portland cement, mineral aggregate up to 5 mm (granite screenings, quartz sand), a complex of patented chemically active reagents, polypropylene fibre |
